Automatización de un calentador para el sistema de fundición de acero en la empresa Adelca ubicado en Aloag

Abstract

In the Steel Industry, to obtain different types of steel or its high quality alloys, precise smelting processes must be carried out, in which heating or cooling times are involved as well as optimal temperatures, this results in the imperative need to control both the temperature variation time and the temperature itself, otherwise the result ends up being of poor quality or of a useful life below what is required. This project focused on the control of temperature stability and the time of variation of the same, since when distributing the control one has on the one hand the stabilization of the temperature and on the other the scaling or periodic change of the same to obtain a homogeneous variation of the temperature in the time required by the heating process, therefore the temperature for the optimal heating of the Tundish vessels was controlled and the drying time for the refractory mass located therein, thus allowing the steel Liquid, which is poured into these containers, flows through each distribution channel of the Tundish, resulting in a correct displacement of the steel without generating unnecessary chemical reactions and an increase in controls both in accuracy, speed and efficiency with respect to a manual control , also reducing the consumption of resources with quality results, in addition to the flexibility of change of proce You are and independent of a permanent operator monitoring the process in question.
