Abstract
A cooling arrangement is provided for cooling a moving stream, of heated workpieces without thermal deformation. The arrangement includes a plurality of nozzles circumscribing the work which direct a spray mist of atomized water particles toward the work. The spray mist vaporizes at or near the surface of the work to produce a water vapor. By orientating the nozzle spray mist pattern in a predetermined manner and providing a plurality of axially spaced mist arrays, the water mist developed completely envelops the workpiece in a controlled manner to produce a uniform rate of cooling of the pieces.
