Description
Shallow flattening control method for electroslag metal liquid pool Technical Field The invention relates to the technical field of electroslag remelting metallurgy, in particular to a control method for shallow leveling of an electroslag metal liquid pool. Background In the field of electroslag metallurgy, the geometry of the metal bath is a central factor in determining the metallurgical quality and production efficiency. Due to technical characteristics, the traditional electroslag metallurgy process often forms a deep metal liquid pool structure, and the depth ratio of the deep metal liquid pool structure is more than 3. The deeper liquid pool form can obviously weaken the dynamic stability of the metallurgical process, and simultaneously cause the problem of component segregation in the metal melt, so that the quality defects of uneven structure, performance fluctuation and the like of the final product are caused, and the application value of the product in the field of high-end manufacturing is directly influenced. Along with the continuous rising of the requirements of modern industry on high-quality metal materials, an innovative technology capable of accurately regulating and controlling the form of a metal liquid pool and realizing shallow leveling of the liquid pool is developed, and the novel technology becomes a key break for improving the competitiveness of the electroslag metallurgy process and has important engineering practical value and wide market application prospect. For example, patent application number CN202110520913.6 discloses a constant bath shape electroslag remelting method based on electrode rotation speed control, wherein the temperature of the slag bath is precisely regulated and controlled by the electrode rotation speed control, so that a stable and shallow shape of a metal bath is obtained. By increasing the rotation speed of the consumable electrode from 0 to the first rotation speed and adopting a step-by-step speed regulation strategy subsequently, molten metal is dispersed and dripped, the convection heat exchange between the slag bath and the solid electrode is enhanced, the electrode melting efficiency is improved, the slag bath and the metal molten pool are more uniform in temperature, a shallow flat metal molten pool is easy to form, macroscopic defects are suppressed, and the solidification quality is improved. Although molten metal liquid drops can be thrown out through centrifugal force to achieve shallow flattening of a metal molten pool, liquid drops with relatively low temperature can be directly thrown to the vicinity of an edge copper plate of a crystallizer without a heating process of high Wen Zhachi due to the centrifugal force, scabs are easily formed, and the surface quality of a steel ingot is reduced. In addition, the method has a great limitation that the method is only suitable for the electrode with the circular cross section, but in actual production, a plurality of electrodes with square or rectangular cross sections cannot realize the rotation operation.
