The invention provides a device and method for preparing light alloy semi-solid slurry through air-cooling multi-tube stirring. The device comprises a crucible for containing light alloy melt, an air-cooling multi-tube stirring mechanism and a lifting mechanism. The air-cooling multi-tube stirring mechanism comprises a stirring mechanism body and an air supply mechanism. The stirring mechanism body is composed of a stirring motor, a multi-tube stirring rod and a bevel gear drive group which are arranged on a lifting platform. The multi-tube stirring rod is supported and positioned through a bearing. The air supply mechanism is composed of an air guide tube and an air supply device. One end of the air guide tube is combined with the air supply device, and the other end of the air guide tube is inserted into the multi-tube stirring rod. Multiple stirring pipes are filled with air entering the air guide tube. The device is simple in structure, convenient to use, high in efficiency, safe, reliable, wide in applicable scope in alloy and especially suitable for preparing large-volume semi-solid alloy slurry, the melt temperature, the stirring speed, the number of the stirring tubes, the inner diameter, the wall thickness, the stirring time and air ventilation quantity can be accurately controlled, and industrial application and popularization are facilitated.
