Conclusions

  1. 1.

    Water-air mixtures in which 3 m3/m2·h of water is used do not produce the cooling rate necessary for increasing the hardness of low alloyed steel sheets 12 mm thick or thicker.

  2. 2.

    Quenching with a spray makes it possible to regulate the cooling rate and the degree of hardening of low alloyed steel.

  3. 3.

    Quenching by sprays is the most effective for sheets 15–25 mm thick.
