Continuous casting is a casting method in which a casting or steel ingot is continuously extracted while solidifying molten metal in a mold without a bottom. Continuous casting is used to manufacture simple products such as squares, rectangles, circles, and other simple cross-sections, and slabs, blooms and billets, which are mainly for rolling.
The type of continuous casting machine is classified into vertical type, vertical bending type, vertical axis difference bending type, curved type and horizontal type. 1 and 2 illustrate a curved shape.

[Equation 1]
H 0 = Discharge amount × 7.01 + 3.74

If nozzle clogging occurs under a constant molten steel discharge amount, the height of the stopper is raised to compensate for the decrease in the opening area of the

4 and 5 are graphs of experimental data confirming whether the above-described blockage index matches the actual blockage degree.
Figure 4 is a graph showing the weight of the ladle, the weight of the tundish, the casting speed and the blockage index over time in the first example of the actual state associated with an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5 is an embodiment of the present invention In the second example, the graph shows the weight of the ladle, the weight of the tundish, the casting speed and the blockage index over time.
In Fig. 4, reference numeral (a) denotes a line for the amount of molten steel of the ladle over time, reference numeral (b) denotes a line for the amount of molten steel of the tundish over time, and reference numeral (c) corresponds to the time It is a line about casting speed (that is, the meaning of discharge amount of molten steel), and (D) is a line about the blockage index with time.
As shown, it can be seen that in the first example, as time passes, the immersion nozzle is blocked, the casting speed is lowered, and the blockage index is increased. In addition, the blockage index of the final immersion nozzle was 0.69, whereas the degree of blockage of the actual nozzle was 0.70. Therefore, it can be seen that the blockage index described in FIG. 3 accurately estimates the degree of blockage of the actual nozzle.
On the other hand, when the clogging index of the nozzle is 0.70, it is time to replace the nozzle. That is, a lot of nozzles are clogged to maintain high productivity, in which case the
In Fig. 5, reference numeral (a) denotes a line for the amount of molten steel of the ladle over time, reference numeral (b) denotes a line for the amount of molten steel of the tundish over time, and reference numeral (c) denotes the time It is a line about casting speed (that is, the meaning of discharge amount of molten steel), and (D) is a line about the blockage index with time.
As shown, in the second example, it can be seen that over time, the immersion nozzle is blocked, the casting speed is lowered, and the blockage index is increased. In addition, the blockage index of the final immersion nozzle was 0.16, whereas the degree of blockage of the actual nozzle was 0.15. Therefore, it can be seen that the blockage index described in FIG. 3 accurately estimates the degree of blockage of the actual nozzle.
On the other hand, when the clogging index of the nozzle is 0.70, it is time to replace the nozzle. That is, a lot of nozzles are clogged to maintain high productivity, in which case the
6 is a flowchart illustrating a method of estimating a degree of clogging of an immersion nozzle and a method of estimating immersion nozzle replacement time according to an embodiment of the present invention.
As shown, first, the first height of the stopper with respect to the amount of molten steel discharged through the immersion nozzle in the steady state in the tundish is obtained (S1). Since the first height acquisition has been described with reference to FIG. 3, description thereof will be omitted. Then, the continuous casting process is actually carried out to obtain a second height which is the height of the stopper for discharging the molten steel amount during the actual process, that is, the immersion nozzle is blocked (S3). The blockage index of the immersion nozzle is obtained using the first height and the second height (S5). Since the blockage index has been described above, detailed description thereof will be omitted. Based on the blockage index, the degree of blockage of the immersion nozzle can be estimated based on the blockage index.
On the other hand, when a plurality of the second height is obtained over time, it is possible to obtain the amount of change in the blockage index, thereby, it is possible to measure the nozzle blockage rate (S7). According to the nozzle clogging speed, the clogging index is predicted, and the immersion nozzle replacement time can be estimated based on the predicted clogging index (S9). For example, it is possible to estimate the time when the blockage index reaches 0.70. Then, if the castable time is less than the sum of the casting time of the amount of molten steel remaining in the current ladle and the casting time of the next ladle, it is impossible to take the next ladle, and thus, when the molten steel injection in the current ladle is completed, , The casting is stopped.
The immersion nozzle clogging degree estimation method and the immersion nozzle replacement time estimation method as described above are not limited to the configuration and operation of the embodiments described above. The above embodiments may be configured such that various modifications may be made by selectively combining all or part of the embodiments.
