Device and Method for Cooling Hot Strip

摘要

A device and a method for cooling a hot strip capable of uniformly cooling the hot-rolled steel strip from the leading end to the trailing end thereof during cooling of the steel strip using cooling water are provided. A cooling device 10 includes a plurality of tubular nozzles 15 inclined so as to eject rod-like flows of cooling water to a steel strip 12 at an ejecting angle theta in a traveling direction of the steel strip 12 and a pinch roller 11 disposed downstream of the tubular nozzles, the steel strip 12 to be nipped between the pinch roller 11 and a table roller 8.
