Definitions

  • Patent Literature 1 discloses a method of performing descaling at least one of just before and just after a final pass of finish rolling, subsequently performing hot leveling, then performing descaling, and starting accelerated cooling.
  • the descaler removes scale produced on each surface of the steel plate after hot leveling of the steel plate by the hot leveler, spraying nozzles of the descaler can be moved closer to the surfaces of the hot-leveled steel plate, thereby improving the descaling performance.
  • the cooling water spraying performance of the descaler for providing a predetermined pressure at the point of impact can be set to low.
  • the inner diameter of each nozzle is preferably 3 to 8 mm. If the inner diameter is less than 3 mm, the flux of water sprayed from the nozzle diminishes and the force of water becomes weak. Whereas, if the nozzle diameter is greater than 8 mm, the flow rate decreases and the force to pass through the remaining water becomes weak.
  • the descaler 4 is configured to remove scale produced on each surface of the steel plate 1 after hot rolling while spraying high-pressure water from a plurality of spraying nozzles directed toward the surface of the steel plate 1 subjected to removal of strain, caused in the steel plate 1, through the first hot leveler 5.
  • the same cooling facility as the upper surface cooling facility was used, except that the facility included no dividing plate.
  • the spraying velocity and water flow rate of rod-like cooling water were 1.5 times as high as those for the upper surface.
  • Example 5 of the present invention in which the distance between the descaler 4 and the cooling equipment 6 was 2.5 m, the spraying pressure of nozzles was 17.7 MPa, the spray flow rate per nozzle was 64 L/min/nozzle, the spraying distance (the distance between each spraying nozzle of the descaler 4 and each surface of the steel plate 1) was 90 mm, the spray angle of nozzle was 40°, the angle between the spray direction and the vertical line was 15°, and the pressure at the point of impact was thereby 2.4 MPa, the releveling rate was 1%, namely, it was very good.
