ABSTRACT:
A method of cooling continuously cast strands in the tertiary cooling zone of continuous casting plants, so as to achieve a more regular cooling, has the cooling water fall onto the machine parts in the form of a finely distributed spray. Surplus cooling water in the area of the uncovered spaces between the machine parts is drained off by collecting devices. Thus the cooling water is prevented from directly hitting the hot strand surface. Moreover, a continuous casting plant for carrying out the above described method comprises an upper and a lower guiding-roller path and cooling water spray nozzles arranged above the upper guiding-roller path over the entire width of the strand. Above the rollers in the area of the uncovered spaces, channels are arranged running transversely in relation to the casting direction of the strand and having lateral outlets.
