A mathematical model was developed based on the heat transfer characteristics of the billet during its hot delivery. The accuracy of the model was established by studying the thermal performance of the cover of the roller conveyer for small billets in Tangshan Iron and Steel Company. The results show that the cover of the roller conveyer of the continuous casting billet can effectively reduce the heat loss during the hot delivery of the billets, and the hot loading temperature was increased by 51.6 °C. The uniformity of the temperature of the casting billet section increased substantially. The temperature difference in the casting billet section was reduced by 120 °C. The heat preservation effects of temperature holding hoods of different materials were compared. It was found that the material of the temperature holding hood has slight effect on the heat preservation.展开更多
