The objective of this work is to study about the ultrafast cooling of a hot static 6 mm thick steel plate (AISI-1020) by air assisted spray cooling. The study covers the effect of air flow rate and the water impingement density on the cooling rate. The initial temperature of the plate, before the cooling starts, is kept at 900 °C. The spray was produced from a full cone high mass flux and low turn down ratio air atomizer at a fixed nozzle to plate distance. The cooling rate shows that low turn down ratio air atomized spray can generate ultra fast cooling (UFC) rate for a 6 mm thick steel plate. After cooling, the tensile strength and hardness of the cooled steel plate were examined. The surface heat flux and surface temperature calculations have been performed by using INTEMP software. The result of this study could be applied in designing of fast cooling system especially for the run-out table cooling.

The ultra-fast cooling technical is a newly developed thermal technical in recent years for the hot-rolled steel plate. The key to develop the ultra-fast cooling equipment are the design of the nozzle structure and the cooling process. The heat exchange mechanism of the jetting impingement heat transfer mode was illustrated during ultra-fast cooling process for the hot-rolled steel plate in this paper. The flow field characteristics and the cooling technological process during the plate ultra-fast cooling process were simulated. And the newly-developed ultra-fast cooling equipment for the hot-rolled plate and its application were also introduced in this paper.
