ABSTRACT:
In a continuous casting plant, the ingot leaves the mold in a downward direction with only a thin skin of solidified metal, the metal within the solidified skin remaining molten until it progressively solidifies. While the skin is still thin, "break-out" can occur, that is, a rupture of the skin with subsequent outflow of the molten metal. When this happens, according to the present invention, the flow of liquid metal into the mold is interrupted and cooling powders are added to the mold, having a particle size of 0.1-5 mm, at a rate of 5 to 100 kg/min. After 0.1 to 5 minutes, the flow of liquid metal to the mold can be resumed.
