Title: Innovations by Jean-Luc Borean
Introduction
Jean-Luc Borean is a notable inventor based in Florange, France. He has made significant contributions to the field of metal processing through his innovative patents. With a total of 2 patents, Borean's work focuses on improving the efficiency and effectiveness of cooling processes in metal substrates.
Latest Patents
Borean's latest patents include a "Process and device for cooling a metal substrate." This invention involves a method for cooling a metal substrate that runs in a longitudinal direction. The process includes ejecting at least one first cooling fluid jet on a first surface and at least one second cooling fluid jet on a second surface of the substrate. The cooling fluid jets are ejected at a velocity higher than or equal to 5 m/s, creating laminar cooling fluid flows that effectively cool the substrate from a first temperature to a second temperature through nucleate boiling.
Another significant patent is the "Economic secondary descaling." This process addresses the secondary descaling of running metal strips, particularly steel, during hot-rolling. It involves spraying water onto the surface of the running metal strips using nozzles supplied with pressurized water. The nozzles operate at a hydraulic pressure ranging from 3 to 30 bar, ensuring that the heat flux density extracted from the strip is maintained within specific parameters for optimal cooling.
