电子束冷床炉熔铸超长超薄钛扁锭表面缺陷分析

Analysis on Surface Defect of Ultra-long and Ultra-thin Titanium Slab Ingot during Electron Beam Cold Hearth Melting

  • 摘要: 电子束冷床炉熔铸出的超长超薄(8 000 mm×210 mm)钛扁锭表面常出现有冷隔和瘤疤等缺陷,导致在后续热轧制过程中出现钛带卷表面质量差等问题。由于扁锭熔炼过程中,前端固液界面的演化直接影响着结晶器与扁锭接触的界面形式,从而影响了扁锭的凝固组织特征和表面质量。采用MiLE非稳态算法研究扁锭的固液界面形貌,从机理上分析扁锭表面缺陷产生的原因。结果表明,当结晶器边缘能量输入较高时,在扁锭与结晶器接触的界面存在一定的溶液,由于形成较大的弯月面曲率,后续溶液难以溢出表面,可较大程度降低结疤的可能。经过试验验证,选取浇注温度为2 123 K进行熔铸,在靠近结晶器部分附加合理的输入能量,可以稳定生产出表面质量良好的超长超薄TA1钛扁锭。

     

    Abstract: Surface quality problems such as cold shut and blemish usually appear during the EBCHM for ultra-long and ultra-thin(8 000 mm×210 mm) titanium slab ingot, resulting in the low quality production of titanium strip coil. The evolution of solid-liquid interface can affect the interface between the crystallizer and the titanium slab ingot, so as to affect the structure feature and the surface quality. In this work, the morphology of solid-liquid interface was studied based on the mix Lagrangian and Eulerian non-steady algorithm(MiLE), and the mechanism of defect was analyzed.Resultsshow that when the input energy of crystallizer's border increases, the blemish hardly appears because of the thin solidification layer in the surface of ingot. Experiment validates that when the pouring temperature is 2 123 K and appropriate amount of energy is input near the crystallizer, the ultra-long and ultra-thin TA1 slab ingot of high surface quality can be produced.
