20.500.12556/RUL-188088 Optimizacija dodatka kalcija za modifikacijo nekovinskih vključkov pri vzmetnem jeklu 51CrV4 Optimization of Calcium addition for modification of non-metallic inclusions in 51CrV4 spring steel V diplomski nalogi smo preučevali vpliv različnih dodatkov kalcija na livnost in čistost vzmetnega jekla 51CrV4. Cilj je bil optimizirati količino dodanega kalcija v obliki CaSi žice za učinkovito modifikacijo nekovinskih vključkov in v proizvodnem procesu preveriti možnost zamenjave CaSi žice s Ca-solid žico. Eksperimentalni del smo izvedli v podjetju Štore Steel. Analizirali smo šarže jekla 51CrV4 z dodatkom CaSi žice dolžine 75 m in 45 m ter Ca-solid žice dolžine 30 m. Livnost jekla smo ovrednotili s pomočjo internega sistema za ocenjevanje livnosti, čistost jekla pa z določevanjem nekovinskih vključkov po metodi K in po metodi A. Izkoristek kalcijeve žice smo določili na podlagi spremembe vsebnosti kalcija v jeklu pred in po dodatku žice. Za podrobnejšo analizo kemične sestave vključkov smo izvedli avtomatsko analizo vključkov. Rezultati so pokazali, da različni dodatki kalcija niso vplivali na livnost jekla, saj so vse analizirane šarže dosegle optimalno oceno livnosti. Največji izkoristek kalcija je bil dosežen pri uporabi Ca-solid žice. Pri vrednotenju vključkov po metodi K sta manjša dolžina CaSi žice in uporaba Ca-solid žice pokazali boljše rezultate v primerjavi s standardnim dodatkom CaSi žice, tj. 75 m. Avtomatska analiza je potrdila učinkovitejšo modifikacijo aluminatnih vključkov pri uporabi Ca-solid žice. Zaradi doseganja ustrezne livnosti in čistosti smo zaključili, da sta zmanjšanje dodatka CaSi in uporaba Ca-solid primerna za vpeljavo v redni proizvodni proces. In this thesis, the influence of different calcium additions on the castability and cleanliness of 51CrV4 spring steel was investigated. The aim was to optimize the amount of calcium added in the form of CaSi wire to achieve effective modification of non-metallic inclusions and to evaluate the possibility of replacing CaSi wire with Ca-solid wire in the production process. The experimental part was performed at Štore Steel, where 51CrV4 steel with additions of 75 m and 45 m CaSi wires and a 30 m Ca-solid wire were analysed. The castability of the steel was evaluated using internally developed castability assessment system, while steel cleanliness was determined by evaluating non-metallic inclusions according to the K method and the A method. The calcium wire yield was determined based on the change in calcium content in the steel before and after calcium wire addition. For a more detailed analysis of the chemical composition of inclusions, automatic inclusion analysis was performed. The results showed that different calcium additions had no influence on steel castability, as all analysed heats achieved an optimal castability rating. The highest calcium yield was achieved using Ca-solid wire. Evaluation of non-metallic inclusions using the K method showed that the reduced amount of CaSi wire and the use of Ca-solid wire resulted in better results compared to the standard addition of 75 m CaSi wire. Automatic inclusion analysis confirmed more effective modification of alumina inclusions when using Ca-solid wire. Based on the required castability and steel cleanliness, it was concluded that reducing CaSi addition and the use of Ca-solid wire are suitable for regular production process. jeklo 51CrV4 nekovinski vključki modifikacija CaSi žica Ca-solid žica 51CrV4 steel non-metallic inclusions modification CaSi wire Ca-solid wire true false false Slovenski jezik Angleški jezik Diplomsko delo/naloga 2026-09-18 09:00:44 2026-09-18 09:00:53 2026-09-19 04:30:04 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2026 0 0 0000-00-00 NiDoloceno NiDoloceno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 1970-01-01 117201 30593.pdf 30593.pdf 1 FD155D6714B73B2B3AA672D3EAE1769F bc57725b6d8371f50026bbc6b972d099f978447222f563ed0ae5e4684a2f5bb1 aea583d5-b32e-11f1-8bc5-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=248089 Naravoslovnotehniška fakulteta 0 0 0
