Abstract

PURPOSE:To curtail an inert gas by dividing the inside of a tandish by a molten metal receiving part and a molten metal pouring part by a weir plate, and sealing the molten metal pouring part by a nitrogen gas instead of the inert gas in case of a period in which a molten metal is stable. CONSTITUTION:The inside of a tandish 1 is divided into a molten metal receiving part A for receiving a molten metal 5 from a ladle 3, and a molten metal pouring part B by a weir plate 2 hanging down from the upper part of the tandish 1. Also, in a period in which a molten metal in the tandish is stable, the molten metal receiving part A and the molten metal pouring part B are sealed with an inert gas and a nitrogen gas, respectively. Also, in a period in which the molten metal in the tandish is unstable, when the manufacturing conditions are changed, etc. such as a replacement of the ladle, a change of a casting speed, etc., both the molten metal receiving part A and the molten metal pouring part B are sealed with an inert gas.

<Prior art and its problems> Recently, the need for low nitrogen steel has increased, and

Furthermore, even if the required amount of Ar gas is minimized as in JP-A No. 59-27760 (method for controlling sealing gas in tundish), the sealing space is large and Ar leakage occurs.
There is a lot of gas (Ar consumption rate (Ar consumption per production amount

On the other hand, in order to restrict the movement of the molten metal in the tundish and to float inclusions in the molten metal, weirs have been installed in the tundish. No. 46435 (method for producing clean steel in continuous casting) and JP-A-54-3

These methods are also suitable as long as the partitioned receiving area is sealed with Ar gas and the molten metal in the tundish is stable, that is, the amount of received and poured molten metal is balanced and the level of the molten metal is approximately constant. However, when manufacturing conditions change, such as replacing the ladle or changing the pouring speed, the sealing conditions change, such as the lower part of the partition weir coming out from the surface of the molten metal, which can lead to various problems such as an increase in oxide inclusions. Therefore, the part of the tundish outside the partition (the pouring part) was also sealed with Ar gas.

As described above, a huge amount of Ar gas is required for the conventional gas seal, and approximately 30 to 50% or more of the Ar gas produced in the steelworks is consumed in this part.

Here, the reason why conventional sealing with nitrogen gas cannot be performed is because nitrogen gas is absorbed into molten steel, and nitrogen is considered dangerous because it promotes the blue-hot brittleness and low-temperature brittleness of steel and causes age hardening. It had been.

However, after a detailed study and experiment of the nitrogen absorption phenomenon, it was found that nitrogen absorption from the surface of the molten metal in the tundish did not occur at all. From this, it was determined that all of the nitrogen absorption that had previously been said occurs in the area where the hot water level fluctuates in the hot water receiving section.

This invention was proposed based on the above knowledge, and its purpose is to significantly reduce the amount of expensive inert gases (such as Ar and He) used for molten steel while preventing nitrogen absorption. An object of the present invention is to provide a method for sealing molten steel in a tundish, which can reduce the amount of molten steel in a tundish.

<Means/effects for solving the problem> The molten steel sealing method according to the present invention uses a weir plate hanging from the upper part of the tundish to divide the inside of the tundish into a molten metal receiving part where the molten metal level fluctuates and a static part. The molten metal is separated from the molten metal part, thereby limiting the wave motion in the molten metal receiving part and expanding the static part.Furthermore, when the molten metal in the tundish is stable, the molten metal receiving part is heated with inert gas,
The pouring section is sealed with nitrogen gas, and when the molten metal in the tundish is unstable, both the receiving section and the pouring section are sealed with inert gas to prevent nitrogen absorption while reducing the amount of expensive inert gas used. It was designed to significantly reduce the

As shown in Fig. 1, a weir plate 2 hanging from the top of the tundish 1 divides the inside of the tundish 1 into a ladle 6, a receiving part A (fluctuating part) that receives molten steel 5 from four ladle nozzles, and the rest. The pouring section B (static section) is divided into two parts.

Therefore, during the stable period of molten metal in the tundish, the receiving part A

Both are regas-sealed with Ar gas, and the pouring section B is gas-sealed with nitrogen gas for most of the time, reducing the amount of expensive Ar gas used by about 50%.

Next, in the graph shown in Figure 2, the amount of Ar gas supplied to the receiving part A is 1000 (-g/min), and the amount of nitrogen gas supplied to the pouring part B is 1o o o (-6/m1n). Furthermore, the nitrogen absorption of the steel from the ladle to the mold was measured using D/d (D: representative length of the receiving part A, d: inner diameter of the ladle nozzle 4) as a parameter. From such a graph, it was found that if -D/d≧5, nitrogen absorption almost disappears.
