    The effect of different heating rates on the microstructure and texture of high grade non-oriented silicon steel during normalizing was investigated by means of electron back-sacttered diffraction. The results show that the average grain size of the samples after normalizing increases when the heating rate increases from 16 ℃/s to 50 ℃/s. However, the average grain size of samples begins to decrease when the heating rate reaches 100 ℃/s. The average grain size of samples with {100}、{210}、{111} orientation increase remarkablely when the heating rate is 50 ℃/s, and γ orientation line texture of the samples after normalizing are weakened, λ orientation line texture of the samples after normalizing are strengthened, η orientation line texture of the samples after normalizing are strongest when the heating rate is 50 ℃/s. The texture factor TF of the sample after normalizing is biggest corresponding to the most favorable texture when the heating rate is 50 ℃/s.

    n this paper, the effects of different final rolling temperature and normalization time on the precipitation behavior of high-strength non-oriented silicon steel were systematically studied. The results showed that the types of precipitates in normalized plates, cold-rolled decarburized plates and final annealed plates are similar, mainly including AlN+Nb(C, N)+Ti(C, N) composite precipitates and AlN and Ce(S, O) centered complex precipitates containing rare earth. The size of precipitates in the normalized plate increases and the surface density decreases when the final rolling temperature is increased and the normalization time is prolonged. And this trend was eventually inherited into the final annealed plate. When the final rolling temperature was 1 000 ℃ and the normalization time was 5 min, the size of precipitates is concentrated in the range of 0.3~1.0  μm, and the surface density of precipitates is 79 pieces /  1 000 μm2

    Abstract45)      PDF(pc) (5387KB)(166)       Save
    Taking advantage of the equipment renovation and control system upgrade of the Beiying 1 780 hot rolling unit, we have developed a production process for cold rolling of low and medium grade non oriented silicon steel hot rolling base materials for sheet metal. With the stability of the production process and the increase of output tasks, a large number of hole defects appear in the cold rolling process, causing huge cutting losses and seriously affecting the yield rate. Measures were taken to sample and inspect defects, uncoiler hot-rolled coils, track and compare hot-rolled gauges, and study equipment influencing factors to confirm the source of defects. These measures included changing the material of the guide strip lining for precision rolling and coiling, changing the guide strip control mode and reducing pressure, optimizing the opening degree of the guide strip upstream and downstream of the precision rolling mill, and optimizing the strip centering in finishing mill stands. As a result, the degradation rate of holes was reduced from 19.46 % to 1.65 %, significantly improving the yield rate.

    Abstract93)      PDF(pc) (2389KB)(164)       Save
    The influence of continuous casting electromagnetic stirring process on the magnetic properties, secondary recrystallization, and primary recrystallization of 0.30 mm thick high magnetic induction oriented silicon steel were studied in this paper. The results showed that the final product samples using electromagnetic stirring process have a lower iron loss of P1.7/50 by 0.04 W/kg and a higher induction of B800 by 0.03 T compared to those without electromagnetic stirring. With electromagnetic stirring process, the high magnetic induction oriented silicon steel has a better magnetic property. The main reason is that for samples under electromagnetic stirring process the grain size of the primary recrystallization is smaller, the temperature of the secondary recrystallization is lower, the proportion of small angle Goss texture of the primary recrystallization is higher, and the deviation angle of the <100> texture around the ND direction is smaller after secondary recrystallization.

    In-situ EBSD study on the texture evolution of normalizednonoriented silicon steel at 900 ℃
    Electrical Steel    2024, 6 (4): 9-.  
    Abstract83)      PDF(pc) (3757KB)(160)       Save
    The texture evolution of a highgrade normalized non-oriented silicon steel was studied using electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and field emission scanning electron microscope with an in-situ tensile test machine. Results showed that the grain orientation of the tested steel is mainly composed of (011) \[100\]. Under in-situ tensile stress, the grain orientation transit to crystal orientation such as (233) \[3-1-1\], (112)\[2-41\], (001)\[110\], and (455)\[5-22\]. The texture type of the tested steel gradually transforms from the initial {011}〈100〉 Gaussian texture to the surface texture. The orientation density of Gaussian texture continues to decrease with tensile deformation, and finally transit to {113}〈631〉 texture and {100}〈011〉 rotated cubic texture. In nonoriented silicon steel, due to the orientation relationship between AlN and the matrix, it hinders the slip and deformation of the initial grains with a normal orientation during insitu tensile process. This prevents it from becoming the dominant orientation and plays an important role in the formation of {113}〈631〉 texture and {100}〈011〉 rotated cube texture in the final grains.

    Based on engineering practice, the influences of welding groove size, shape, position, and quantity on the three-phase induced potential imbalance of permanent magnet synchronous motors for 6-pole 54 groove new energy vehicles were firstly simulated and analyzed in this paper. And secondly, the variation law of the three-phase induced potential imbalance of the motor was simulated and analyzed under different stator slot numbers and motor pole numbers. Finally, prototype production and testing verification were carried out. Through simulation analysis and experimental verification, it is pointed out that for permanent magnet synchronous motors used in 6-pole 54 slot new energy vehicles, the width and depth of the welding groove will affect the imbalance of the three-phase induced potential of the motor. The imbalance of the three-phase induced potential of the motor is directly proportional to the size of the welding groove. At the same time, it was pointed out that for permanent magnet synchronous motors, from the perspective of reducing the imbalance of three-phase induced potential, the number of stator welding slots should not be an integer multiple of the number of poles. In addition, the corresponding relationship between the balance of three-phase voltage and current of the motor and the torque output and operating efficiency of the motor was also pointed out.

    For non-oriented medium and low grade silicon steel products, strip stamping defects caused by annealing furnace roll nodules are common defects in the quality control process of silicon steel. Generally, the higher the silicon content, the higher the probability of nodules occurring in blast furnace rolls. According to production experience, after the occurrence of furnace roll nodding, it is necessary to take measures such as online grinding of rolls, alkaline waste discharge, and increasing the current of brush rolls to slow down nodding, but the above methods can only make up for the negative impact of nodding to a certain extent, and cannot fundamentally eliminate nodding, which makes the production fall into a vicious cycle, not only can't meet the conditions of batch continuous production, but also can't. At the same time, it will affect the quality delivery of highend customer orders and reduce the market competitiveness of silicon steel brands. A series of comparison and verification experiments were carried out to control roll tumbler defects of annealing furnace, and effective measures were taken to control roll tumbler through the matching control of partial pressure ratio of annealing furnace and annealing process, ensuring good strip surface cleaning quality, and reasonably controlling roll speed and strip speed difference.

    Abstract49)      PDF(pc) (1326KB)(138)       Save
    Based on the industrial manufacture of non-oriented silicon steel sheets, the influence of shear gap size, sample size, sample direction, and the ratio of yield and tensile on the magnetic properties were studied. The results show that with the increase of shear gap, the proportion of shear plane in thickness direction decreases gradually. Thus, the iron loss and magnetic induction will deteriorate by different degree, and the iron loss degradation rate is much higher than the magnetic induction degradation rate. Moreover, the iron loss degradation rate in the L direction is much higher than that in the C direction. With the decrease of sheared sample size, the iron loss and magnetic inductance will also deteriorate and are affected by the yield ratio of the material. The deterioration rate of magnetic properties is obvious increase with the increase of yield ratio for the sheared sample.
