Abstract (en)
[origin: US4572280A] The cooling of a continuously cast ingot as it emerges from the mold, during casting, is carried out by applying coolant directly to the ingot around its circumference. In order to reduce the extent of doming, which occurs to the ingot base when cooling is too strong, the coolant is applied, at least at the start of the drop, to zones via streams of coolant. The process can be realized in practice particularly simply with an electromagnetic continuous casting mold which has a cooling device featuring a nozzle, with a ring shaped opening for liquid coolant, directed at the surface of the ingot. A deflecting sheet with turret shaped tongues separated by openings is provided projecting into the path of the coolant emerging from the ring shaped gap. The deflecting sheet is positioned parallel to the main ingot axis and can be moved parallel to that axis.
