    摘要: Provided is an online cooperative control method for soft reduction and heavy reduction in bloom continuous casting. A quantitative relationship of a theoretical ultimate reduction amount to a reduction position is accurately determined according to an offline three-dimensional solidification and heat transfer model for a continuous casting bloom and a three-dimensional reduction model for a continuous casting bloom under thermo-mechanical coupling; a thermal state of a continuous casting bloom, soft reduction and heavy reduction zones, and a total reduction amount are calculated in real time with an online three-dimensional solidification and heat transfer calculation model for a continuous casting bloom; actual reduction amounts of the rollers for soft reduction and heavy reduction are calculated and distributed online based on a real-time equivalent central solid fraction and a theoretical ultimate reduction amount of each reduction roller. Online cooperative control of soft reduction and heavy reduction in bloom continuous casting is realized.

    摘要: A casting ring having a first section made of a heat-conductive material and a second section made of a MAX phase alloy material, and a method for obtaining a product made of titanium alloy or a titanium-aluminum intermetallic compound by plasma torch melting, the alloy having an oriented structure, the method including heating the molten alloy surface in the casting ring with a plasma torch; cooling a cold zone of the casting ring over a length L1, the cooling forming a semi-solid crown of alloy; heating a hot zone of the casting ring over a length L2, thereby forming a solidification front, the flatness of which relative to a plane perpendicular to a drawing direction is less than 10°; and drawing the solidified alloy at a speed of more than 10−4 m/s in the drawing direction.

    摘要: The disclosure relates to a method for operating a cooling chamber in a strand guide device and the strand guide device 10 as such. The strand guide device serves to deflect a freshly cast strand, typically made of metal, into the horizontal. During the deflection, the cast strand passes through a cooling chamber 1 inside the strand guide device 2, in which it is sprayed with a coolant 33, with the formation of steam 5. The steam forms at least a steam-air mixture 5′ with sucked-in secondary air, which is sucked out of the cooling chamber by a suction device 20. In particular, in order to reduce the pollutant content of the sucked-in and sucked-off steam-air mixture 5′ and its emission into the environment, the present invention provides for pollutants, primarily dust, located in the steam-air mixture 5′ by a separator 6, 6′ to deplete.
