Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An apparatus of adding high vapor pressure magnesium to a steel liquid, includes a magnesium additive device and a tube furnace. The magnesium additive device includes a storage barrel, a conveying pipe, a control valve, and an insertion tube. A method of adding high vapor pressure magnesium to a steel liquid, includes placing the magnesium additive device in the tube furnace, and delivering pure magnesium particles into the storage barrel. When the temperature at the mediate lower position of the conveying pipe is increased to reach a preset value, the control valve is opened to pour the pure magnesium particles into the conveying pipe to form a magnesium vapor, and an argon regulating valve is opened to introduce the argon into the conveying pipe so as to add the magnesium vapor to a steel liquid by carrying of the argon.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method of adding high vapor pressure magnesium to a steel liquid, comprising: placing a magnesium additive device in a tube furnace; and adding pure magnesium particles when a temperature at a mediate lower position of the magnesium additive device is increased to reach a preset value, so that the pure magnesium particles form a magnesium vapor which is carried into a steel liquid by argon. 2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising providing an argon regulating valve to introduce the argon whose flow rate is at the range of 0.5-1.5 L/min. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the magnesium vapor is carried into the steel liquid by the argon whose flow rate is at the range of 0.2-0.5 L/min. 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein each of the pure magnesium particles has a diameter of 0.5-2 mm.
