Hot dip coating: analysis of the snout area

Objective

Whereas galvanising baths have been the object of intensive research regarding temperature, composition, fluid flow of liquid metal and cross formation, little information is available concerning the snout area. It is widely accepted that the final quality of the coating is strongly related to the first contact of the strip with the liquid metal within the snout. Due to the lack of available information concerning the snout area, it is of major interest to investigate the specific phenomena that are taking place in that location and to relate them to the coating quality of the product and to the process parameters. In order to achieve this main objective, the project intends to achieve a complete characterisation of the snout area. The analysis will concern the zinc surface evolution, the temperature and composition of the bath beneath the snout, the atmosphere composition and the strip behaviour.
