Kuznetsov, and R. N. Gordeichik A large role in increasing the productivity and improving the technical and economic parameters of the operation of heating furnaces (soaking pits) is played by delivering to them ingots in the hot condition at a temperature of not less than 800~ In addition, it is necessary to heat treat some steels if ingots are delivered to heating equipment in the cold condition. Normally after stripping the ingots they cool at a rate of 50-70~ for the first I0 h. In the majority of cases, in metallurgical plants, ingots are shipped to the rolling mills in special cars -- ingot cars without thermal protection. Obviously it would be more desirable to use insulated containers placed on railroad flatcars for this purpose. However, until the present they have not found wide use in our plants primarily because of the ab- sence of the necessary thermal insalating material and a method of lining the insulated con- tainers. Abroad wide use is made of insulated containers in the form of containers, protective hoods, and TI - Transporting hot ingots in refractory lined insulated containers JF - Metallurgist DO - 10.1007/BF01093789 DA - 2005-01-18 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/springer-journals/transporting-hot-ingots-in-refractory-lined-insulated-containers-jngvjF8gTM SP - 814 EP - 815 VL - 19 IS - 11 DP - DeepDyve ER -
