Abstract [en]

Vibration measurements were carried out using highly sensitive accelerometers in an experimental ladle integrated into the LIMMCAST (Liquid Metal Model for Steel Casting) facility at HZDR. The model is operated with liquid Sn–40 wt pctBi alloy at 200 °C, whose physical properties are close to those of molten steel. Three accelerometers were attached to the outer wall of the LIMMCAST vessel to record the vibrations caused by the argon bubble flow in the liquid metal at different process parameters. The results obtained at the liquid metal experiments differ from those reported for water models where the relationship between root mean square (RMS) value of the vibration amplitude and the gas flow rate follows different curve shapes. Furthermore, the results of vibration measurements in the LIMMCAST model are compared with vibration measurements in a steel plant during vacuum degassing. The comparison of the RMS data shows a fairly good agreement. This indicates that the vibrations in both the industrial process and the laboratory model are caused by the same physical mechanisms, and thus, the vibration behavior in an industrial steelmaking ladle can be reproduced quite well by suitable liquid metal models. These studies on bubble flows can help to improve the understanding of industrial stirring processes and thus contribute to a better process control.
