Study on the Fabrication of a Large Steel Ingot with the Ultra Clean and Low Hot Top Ratio
저압탕 고청정 대형 잉고트 제조 연구
Abstract
A large steel ingot needs to be larger and larger in size and an ultra high clean, no defect in quality with a low hot top ratio for the resent heavy industry. The demands are very difficult to achieve simultaneously because of their contradictive effect to each other in results. In this study, 30ton steel ingot was cast in a foundry with an optimized design parameter of cast mold and cast process conditions for the low hot top ratio, 12%. The cast ingot was analyzed in macro defect, segregations, and cleanness. No macro defect was founded in central surface of the ingot. The degree of segregation and cleanness are in the controlled range with a sound quality.
