Abstract

A temperature control apparatus of a hot-rolling mill according to the present invention extracts a high-frequency component, a medium-frequency component, and a low-frequency component from a deviation between a calculated value or a measured value of a material temperature in a temperature managing position set on an outlet side of the hot-rolling mill and a given temperature target value. The temperature control apparatus then corrects a reference value of electric power of an induction heating device set to an electric power changing device based on the high-frequency component, corrects a reference value of a cooling water flow rate set to a flow rate changing device based on the medium-frequency component, and corrects a reference value of a roll rotation speed set to a speed changing device based on the low-frequency component.

Claims (14)

1. A temperature control apparatus of a hot-rolling mill having: a rolling stand that rolls a rolled material; a water cooling device that cools the rolled material; an induction heating device that heats the rolled material; a speed changing device that changes a roll rotation speed of the rolling stand; a flow rate changing device that changes a cooling water flow rate of the water cooling device; and an electric power changing device that changes electric power of the induction heating device, the temperature control apparatus comprising:

a setup calculating device that calculates an initial value of each of a reference value of electric power with respect to the electric power changing device, a reference value of a cooling water flow rate with respect to the flow rate changing device, and a reference value of a roll rotation speed with respect to the speed changing device, based on given manufacturing instruction information;

an outlet-side temperature calculating device that calculates temperatures of a plurality of calculation points of the rolled material in a longitudinal direction at time points when the calculation points arrive at a temperature managing position set on an outlet side of the hot-rolling mill, based on a measured temperature or a calculated temperature of each calculation point at an inlet side of the hot-rolling mill, the roll rotation speed of the rolling stand, the electric power of the induction heating device, and the cooling water flow rate of the water cooling device;

a frequency component extracting device that extracts a high-frequency component, a medium-frequency component, and a low-frequency component from a deviation between the outlet-side temperature of each calculation point calculated by the outlet-side temperature calculating device and a given temperature target value;

an electric power setting correcting device that corrects the reference value of the electric power with respect to the electric power changing device based on the high-frequency component;

a flow rate setting correcting device that corrects the reference value of the cooling water flow rate with respect to the flow rate changing device based on the medium-frequency component; and

a speed setting correcting device that corrects the reference value of the roll rotation speed with respect to the speed changing device based on the low-frequency component.

2. A temperature control apparatus of a hot-rolling mill including: a rolling stand that rolls a rolled material; a water cooling device that cools the rolled material; an induction heating device that heats the rolled material; a speed changing device that changes a roll rotation speed of the rolling stand; a flow rate changing device that changes a cooling water flow rate of the water cooling device; and an electric power changing device that changes electric power of the induction heating device, the temperature control apparatus comprising:

a setup calculating device that calculates an initial value of each of a reference value of electric power with respect to the electric power changing device, a reference value of a cooling water flow rate with respect to the flow rate changing device, and a reference value of a roll rotation speed with respect to the speed changing device, based on given manufacturing instruction information;

a thermometer that measures a temperature of the rolled material at an outlet side of the hot-rolling mill;

a frequency component extracting device that extracts a high-frequency component, a medium-frequency component, and a low-frequency component from a deviation between the outlet-side temperature of the rolled material measured by the thermometer and a given temperature target value;

an electric power setting correcting device that corrects the reference value of the electric power with respect to the electric power changing device based on the high-frequency component;

a flow rate setting correcting device that corrects the reference value of the cooling water flow rate with respect to the flow rate changing device based on the medium-frequency component; and

a speed setting correcting device that corrects the reference value of the roll rotation speed with respect to the speed changing device based on the low-frequency component.
