  • Model-assisted process for the controlled cooling of hot strip and plate in a computer-guided rolling and cooling process
    Patent number: 5891275
    Abstract: A metal-physical model is used in a computer controlled cooling device for a rolling and cooling process for rolling a hot strip or a plate. The cooling parameters are calculated based on initial conditions. The computer uses the metal physical model to instantaneously alter the cooling parameters in response to changes in the final rolling temperatures and the rate at which the hot strip or plate is moved through the cooling device.
