摘要:
A method includes: annealing a steel strip by conveying the steel strip through a heating zone, a soaking zone, and a cooling zone in this order inside an annealing furnace; and applying a hot-dip galvanized coating onto the steel strip discharged from the cooling zone. Reducing gas or non-oxidizing gas supplied into the soaking zone includes humidified gas and dry gas. While a width and a sheet passing speed of the steel strip passing through the soaking zone are constant, a variation of pressure in the annealing furnace is suppressed by adjusting a flow rate of the dry gas, and a variation range of an amount of moisture supplied into the soaking zone by the humidified gas is limited to 20% or less.

Inclusive is 30 seconds or longer and 10 minutes or shorter, and the dew point of an atmosphere is −45° C. or lower.
摘要:
Part of an atmosphere gas in a heating zone and/or a soaking zone is sucked out and is cooled through a high-temperature gas passage of a heat exchanger by heat exchange with a gas in a low-temperature gas passage, then cooled through a gas cooler, then dehumidified to a dew point of −45° C. or less in a dryer, then heated through the low-temperature gas passage of the heat exchanger by heat exchange with a gas in the high-temperature gas passage, and returned to the heating zone and/or the soaking zone. Part of gas flowing from the dryer toward the low-temperature gas passage of the heat exchanger is returned to a cooling zone. These can achieve a low dew point of −45° C. or less with high energy efficiency.
摘要:
An apparatus and a method for the treatment of a flat steel product, taking place in throughput. The apparatus includes an indirectly heated annealing furnace chamber, a conveyor device for continuously conveying the flat steel product over a conveyor path leading from an entry to an exit of the annealing furnace chamber, and nozzle arrangements for feeding atmosphere gas, which is reactive in relation to the flat steel product, into the annealing furnace chamber. A controlled treatment of the flat steel product includes a first nozzle arrangement, from which a gas jet induces a first gas flow towards the entry of the annealing furnace chamber and sweeping over the surface of flat steel product to be treated. A second nozzle arrangement includes a gas jet which induces a second gas flow directed towards the exit of the annealing furnace chamber and sweeping over the surface of flat steel product.
