ABSTRACT:
A method of cooling a strand cast in an oscillating mold during continuous casting, wherein the strand during passage through the mold is indirectly cooled in a first zone and guided at all sides and in a final or terminal zone is guided by substantially strip-shaped support surfaces extending essentially in the direction of travel of the strand as well as directly cooled by water guided in a substantially strip-shaped configuration along the strand. The strand, following such indirect cooling and prior to the strip-shaped direct cooling, is directly cooled in an intermediate zone by the application of sprayed water.
The mold arrangement used for the performance of the method comprises a first cooling device composed of cooled walls bounding the mold compartment or cavity and a terminal cooling device composed of strip-shaped arranged support surfaces disposed approximately parallel to the lengthwise axis of the strand and strip-shaped cooling water channels located between the support surfaces. The cooling water channels are equipped with water infeed means. Between the first and the terminal cooling devices there are arranged spray nozzles constituting an additional cooling device, the spray pattern of such spray nozzles impinging the hollow mold compartment which is open at all sides between the first cooling device and the last or terminal cooling device.
