Abstract (en)
A method and apparatus for cooling foundry castings, characterised in that it comprises the steps of:forming a cooling fog by nebulising a flow of water,exposing a substantial part of the external surface of the casting (16) to said cooling fog,measuring the temperature of the casting (16), andinterrupting the exposure of the casting (16) to the cooling fog when the measured temperature drops below the predetermined threshold.
