A kind of method of big cross section Properties of Heavy Rail Steel strand crystalline structure uniformity controlling
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of method of big cross section Properties of Heavy Rail Steel strand crystalline structure uniformity controlling, belong to field of steel metallurgy.
Background technology
Rail is the main building block of railroad track, in railway transport course, provides and effectively supports and guide, need bear the huge lateral pressure from wheel to locomotive.Based on China's capital construction growth requirement, railway transportation just with the development of swift and violent speed, and is constantly tending towards high speed, heavy loading.Rail specification size also increases gradually, for reducing welding point, ensures the globality that railway track is higher, and the scale of large gauge rail is also in increase.Required that strand length scaling was longer undoubtedly by the former rail compared with the long scale of light section strand rolling large-size, this causes subsequent heat treatment equipment to need to carry out larger transformation; In addition, if casting blank cross-section size is constant, and rail specification size becomes large, and this impacts undoubtedly to the compression ratio of the operation of rolling, finally affects the physical indexs such as rail density.But big cross section Properties of Heavy Rail Steel continuous casting billet is due to the factor of its steel grades itself and solidification of molten steel heat transfer theory in generative process, and the trend of strand column crystal prosperity is larger, and this can cause harmful effect to strand crystalline structure uniformity.
Large quantity research is pointed out: the effective measures improving strand density and casting blank solidification crystalline structure uniformity improve strand proportion of equiaxed grain exactly.This mainly because, in casting blank solidification process, after " chill " is formed, the directionality of casting blank solidification heat transfer promotes the formation of column crystal and grows up, if do not controlled, the prosperity of column crystal must have influence on the control of strand segregation, reduce strand equiaxial crystal ratio, worsen casting blank solidification crystalline structure uniformity, more seriously when solidify develop into close to strand center time, the prosperity of column crystal can cause the generation of " bridging ", and then cause molten steel cannot to the volume contraction caused due to cooled and solidified supplement, and then affect casting blank solidification dense structure property, reduce Inner Quality of Billet, finally affect rail quality, especially the density of web of the rail position.And for the control that strand crystalline structure uniformity promotes, be all one of research emphasis work that metallargist is constant all the time, especially constantly become large at casting blank cross-section size, all the more so when crystalline structure uniformity control difficulties constantly increases.
Such as: CN104525880A discloses the manufacture method of a kind of large section circle base.This invention comprises the following steps: 1) pour into a mould: molten steel is injected tundish from ladle; 2) crystallization: by the strand do not solidified completely obtained in the pouring molten steel of tundish to crystallizer, wherein, crystallizer protecting residue performance is: basicity 0.2 ~ 0.5, fusion temperature 980 ~ 1130 DEG C, and the viscosity at 1300 DEG C is 12 ~ 18.0PaS; It is as follows that M-EMS is set: electric current 400 ~ 500A, frequency 3.0 ~ 4.0Hz; 3) throwing: casting speed: 0.08 ~ 0.13m/min; 4) two is cold: two Leng Shang districts adopt full water to cool by force, and two cold inferior segments adopt air water to be atomized weak cooling, comprehensive specific water: 0.25 ~ 0.35L/kg steel; 5) strand after cold to two carries out continuous straightening, and aligning strain rate controls 0.08% ~ 0.13%.The present invention is the batch production realizing diameter 900mm and above round base based on a kind of arc radius 16.5 meters of full arc shape alloy steel continuous casting machines, and has good surface and internal soundness.But, the concrete technology of some keys of big cross section Properties of Heavy Rail Steel continuous casting billet crystalline structure uniformity controlling is not related to.
CN102806330A discloses a kind of method improving thick and large section continuous casting billet internal soundness, can solve thick and large section continuous casting billet central pipe in prior art and loosen and segregation problems.The present invention, by controlling Molten Steel Cleanliness, the cast degree of superheat, works in coordination with and adopts microcell vibration and solidify from Feeding, improve Inner Quality of Billet.Microcell oscillation technology effectively eliminates strand internal segregation defects, and can effective thinning solidification structure, alleviates shrinkage cavity and loosens.Solidify and in follow-up solidification shrinkage process, realize the plasticity of simultaneously solidifying with solid metallic from Feeding and move, the radial object from feeding of the deformable metal that reaches a high temperature, thus eliminate strand internal shrinkage, and significantly improve until eliminate strand internal defect.And the concrete technology of some keys of big cross section Properties of Heavy Rail Steel continuous casting billet crystalline structure uniformity controlling is not related to.
Summary of the invention
