Plate and strip hot rolling lines are equipped with water cooling systems used to control the deformed material temperature. This system has a great importance in the case of thermal - mechanical deformation of steel which is focused on formation a proper microstructure and mechanical properties. The desired rate of cooling is achieved by water spray or laminar cooling applied to the hot surface of a strip. The water flow rate and pressure can be changed in a wide range and it will result in a very different heat transfer from the cooled material to the cooling water. The suitable cooling rate and the deformed material temperature can be determined based on numerical simulations. In this case thermal boundary conditions have to be specified on the cooled surface. The determination of the heat transfer coefficient distribution in the area of the water spray nozzle would improve numerical simulations significantly. In the paper an attempt is made to determine the heat transfer coefficient distribution on the hot plate surface cooled by the water spray nozzle. In the inverse method direct axially symmetrical and three dimensional solutions to the plate temperature field have been implemented. The computation time and the achieved accuracy have been compared for five cases. The studied cases differed in the maximum value of the heat transfer coefficient in nozzle spray axis and its distribution in the cooling time.

Abstract For the determination of heat transfer coefficients in air-water spray cooling, two methods are presented that are capable of characterizing multi-nozzle cooling set-ups. The methods are based on the quenching of thin-walled tubes or massive cylinders on which cooling curves are recorded at given positions with thermocouples. The temperature dependent heat transfer coefficients were calculated by an inverse calculation and the measured temperature-time-curves could be reproduced with these data in numerical cooling simulations. Next, the determined heat transfer coefficients were used for the calculation of an air-water-spray quenching process of a forging part with more challenging geometry. The calculated results were compared with thermocouple measurements. Different calculation variants for the heat transfer on component surfaces not directly exposed to the air-water spray are shown and discussed. ◼
