Abstract
Within the framework of research investigations described in this paper, a measuring method for the determination of heat transfer coefficients in the range of stable film boiling has been developed for water spray cooling in the secondary cooling zone of continuous casting machines. Based on investigations by 3), a water cooled test sample with a measuring field of 20 × 20 mm2 was constructed. For this sample geometry, a special evaluation method has been developed which permits quick evaluation in on‐line procedure. Result of measurements are sections for the heat transfer coefficient arising from different spray water distributions. On the one hand, these can be used as calculation figures for the determination of the solidification profile and the solidification rate. On the other hand, the measuring results serve as an assessment basis for nozzle constructions. Practical use of the measuring results confirms the usefulness of the measuring method on a laboratory scale. In addition, the validity of the measuring results has been demonstrated by comparing them with an unsteady state method in accordance with 2).
