TWO-GROOVE LADLE WITH CHAMBERS FOR LIQUID METAL HEATING PLASMA

摘要

FIELD: process engineering. ^ SUBSTANCE: invention relates to metallurgy, in particular, to continuous casting of billets. Intermediate two-groove ladle comprises two metal plasma heating chambers, receiving and teeming sections separated by baffles with overflow channels. The latter arranged between plasma heating chamber and receiving section feature round cross-section and those between plasma heating chamber and teeming section feature rectangular cross-section. Total cross-section areas of round and rectangular channels feature relationship of 1.0-1.2. ^ EFFECT: uniform temperature distribution in heating chamber and teeming sections. ^ 3 dwg, 1 tbl
