The cooling techniques on the continuous casting process

Abstract

Abstract In the process of blast furnace ironmaking, in order to facilitate the transportation and storage of the molten iron, the liquid molten iron is continuously cast into iron block by using cast iron machine. In the process of continuous casting, adopting safe and efficient cooling method can shorten the cooling time of cast iron block, increase the cooling rate of molten iron in cast iron mold, and improve the productivity of cast iron machine. In this paper, the development of cooling technology in continuous cast iron process is reviewed, and the technical characteristics and application evolution of spray water cooling and dry cooling are introduced.
