Abstract :
The advent of continuous casting presents a new set of reheat problems which can more readily be accommodated by induction heating apparatus than by conventional gas fired furnaces. The technical reasons for using induction heating, typical installations now in operation, and proposed equipment for a large slab reheat facility are presented.
