ABSTRACT:
In a continuous casting process in which a partially solidified strand of rectangular cross section is formed continuously in a water cooled mold and comprises upper and lower curved surfaces of different radii, and in which the said strand is curved and follows a curved path through a secondary cooling zone, the curved strand is straightened by applying cooling water to the curved surface of the strand which is of greater radius at an intensity sufficient to reduce the surface temperature thereof below the surface temperature of the surface of lesser radius to produce a temperature differential between said surfaces sufficient to straighten the strand.
