[0002] Aluminum is a silvery-white metal, the third most abundant element in the Earth's crust after oxygen and silicon. The raw material used in our daily industry is called aluminum ingot, which is produced by electrolysis using alumina-cryolite. After entering industrial applications, aluminum ingots fall into two main categories: cast aluminum alloys and wrought aluminum alloys. Cast aluminum and aluminum alloys are aluminum castings produced using casting methods. The processing of aluminum ingots involves multiple steps. The main process involves pouring molten aluminum into a mold, cooling it, and then casting it into a billet. To ensure processing efficiency, continuous casting is generally used, requiring rapid cooling of the freshly processed aluminum ingot to remove it from the mold.

[0003] In existing aluminum ingot cooling devices, the cooling water temperature rises after absorbing heat during cooling, gradually reducing the cooling effect. Moreover, after cooling is completed, moisture remains on the outside of the aluminum ingot, requiring waiting for the moisture to dry, which affects the production efficiency of aluminum ingots.
