摘要:The three kinds of flow control device in 20 t T-type tundish have been simulated and compared by using CFX flow field calculation software to study the effect of number of flow guided holes, diameter and position of hole on liquid flow field in tundish, and the suitable scheme of flow control device is gotten. The simulation and application results show that with setting up upper and lower guided flow holes at both sides walls and setting up a guided flow hole at middle wall, the flow field and liquid surface in tundish and the flow at outlet are stable, the fluctuation of temperature of liquid is smaller, and the average residence time of liquid in tundish increases to 712 s being favourable to remove the inclusions in liquid.

摘要:The numerical simulation of process of four stand tandem KOCKS mill continuous rolling Ф16 mm GCr15 bearing steel bar from Ф21.5 mm stock has been carried out by using DEFORM-3D three-dimensional heavy deformation thermal-mechanical coupled with elastic-plastic finite element software. And the rolling process parameters for stock rolling in KOCKS mill roll pass including equivalent stress, equivalent strain, temperature field and rolling force of steel are analyzed. Results show that the deformation of steel bar in KOCKS mill occurs mainly at rough rolling passes, and that at finish passes is small, especially at last pass ; the spread of steel bar in KOCKS mill stands is uneven, that near the roller area is smaller and that near the roll gap is larger to form bulge ; and in KOCKS mill stands the equivalent strain reaches the center of steel bar, it is available to ensure the compact density of structure and internal quality of finishing products. The relative error between simulated value and measured value of rolling force at each pass in situ is less than 2%.

It is obtained by examination that as nitrogen content in steel is 0.0046% , the HRC hardness value of quenched steel is 41-43, while as the nitrogen content in steel is 0.0081% , the HRC value of quenched steel is 21-27 that is less than the specification requirement HRC value 38. And it is obtained by test that as Ti/N ≤8, with increasing Ti/N the yield of boron in steel increases obviously, for instance on condition that the nitrogen content in steel is 0.0046% with Ti/N being 7. 4, the yield of boron is up to 90% , and on this condition the nitrogen in steel is 0.0081% with Ti/N being 4.3, the yield of boron in steel is less than 70% led to low boron content in steel and lower HRC value of quenched steel. By improving the BOF and LF operation to control the nitrogen in steel less than 0.005% (0.0039%-0.0041% ) with Ti/N being 7.5-8.1, the quenched HRC value of core of rod product is 40-42 to meet the requirement of user.

摘要:Based on the finite element method according to two dimensional solidification heat transfer model, the simulation of solidification structure of 280 mm x 325 mm bloom of GCr15 bearing steel casting with casting speed 0.6 m/min and 0.5 m/min, liquid superheated extent 30℃ and 10℃ , and secondary cooling water rate 0.25 L/kg and 0.20 L/kg has been carried out to study the effect of casting process parameters on structure of bloom. Results show that with increasing the liquid superheated extent from 10°C to 30℃ , the equiaxial crystal zone and mixed crystal zone decreases from 70% to 55% , so the effect of superheated extent on bloom solidification structure is very obvious ; with decreasing the casting speed from 0.6 m/min to 0.5 m/min the average length of columnar crystal grows by 6.5 mm, but the transition zone from columnar crystal to equiaxial crystal decreases, it is available to reduce the enrichment of solute elements in the zone ; with decreasing the sencondary cooling water rate from 0.25 L/kg to 0.20 L/kg, there is no obvious difference in columnar crystal and equiaxial crystal zone, therefore there is no obvious effect of decreasing secondary water rate on solidification of structure in casting bloom.
