UDC 621.771.25.-71.004

An engineering technique for calculation of convective 
heat transfer in accelerated cooling of hot rolled stock in a co-current 
water flow is considered. Experimental values of the heat-transfer 
coefficient are given. The energy-saving regime of cooling of the 
reinforcing rolled stock at the "Krivorozhstal'" Joint Stock Company 
Krivoi Rog Integrated Mining-Metallurgical Works is presented.
