    摘要: A batch furnace for annealing material, in particular a single chamber furnace or single coil furnace, with a furnace housing. The batch furnace has a closable charging opening, a receiving chamber for receiving furnace material, and a device for convective heat transfer onto the furnace material by a heat transfer medium. The batch furnace includes at least one fan, which is arranged in the furnace housing, at least one heating device for the heat transfer medium and/or at least one inlet for an externally heated heat transfer medium, wherein the heating device and/or the inlet is arranged directly in front of the intake side or directly behind the pressure side of the fan or circumferentially in an annular gap between the fan and the furnace housing, and a receiving chamber for the furnace material, which is arranged on the pressure side of the fan.

    摘要: A method for determining the ferrite phase fraction xa after heating or when cooling a steel strip (2) in a metallurgic system. Also, a device for carrying out the method. A method by which the ferrite phase fraction in the steel strip (2) can be determined online, quickly and easily, includes measuring a width w1 and a temperature T1 of the steel strip (2), wherein the steel strip (2) comprises a ferrite phase fraction xa 1 during the measurements; heating or cooling the steel strip (2); when heating the steel strip (2) a phase conversion at least in part occurs, a→y from the ferrite state a into the austenitic state y and when cooling the steel strip a phase conversion at least in part occurs, from the austenitic state y into the ferrite state a; measuring of a width w and a temperature T of steel strip (2) converted at least in part; determining the ferrite phase fraction of the formula (I), wherein T0 is a reference temperature and aa and ay are the linear heat expansion coefficients of ferrite and austenite.

    摘要: An apparatus for continuously treating metal strip of aluminum, an aluminum alloy, a nonferrous metal, or a nonferrous-metal alloy, has at least one heat-treatment device through which the metal strip passes in a strip-travel plane in a travel direction without contact from an upstream inlet end to a downstream outlet end and having a heating zone at the upstream end and a cooling zone formed by a row extending in the direction of at least two cooling subzones. A strip-centering device between the cooling subzones adjusts a position of the metal strip in the strip-travel plane and transverse thereto.

    摘要: A wire heating system includes an induction heating apparatus having a power supply and an induction coil arranged to heat a wire rod by an induction heating using current supplied from the power supply, and a controller configured to control the current to be supplied to the induction coil based on a feeding speed of the wire rod. The induction heating apparatus has a heating section in which the wire rod is heated by the induction heating using the induction coil, and a soaking section located downstream of the heating section to homogenize the temperature distribution of the induction-heated wire rod. The controller is configured to control the current to be supplied to the induction coil such that a temperature of the wire rod at a downstream end of the soaking section becomes a target temperature.
