CLAY GRAPHITE TIGER CURSOR, ELECTRIC INDUCTION HEATING SYSTEMS OF RAILWAY AND HOT WORKING PROCESS, AND METHODS FOR FORMING AN ELECTRICAL TIGER HEATING SYSTEM AND FOR HOT WORK OF A TICKET AT A HOT WORKING TARGET TEMPERATURE.

摘要

An electric billet-inducing heating apparatus and method is provided, where the billets are continuously or statically heated by induction by moving the billets without billet support rails through an induction coil fed with alternating current power when the billets are in direct sliding contact with the inner surface of a clay graphite billet cursor disposed within the induction coil. the clay graphite billet cursor can also provide thermal insulation between the induction coil and the clay graphite billet cursor to eliminate the requirement for a separate induction coil refractory.
