Abstract
A method for determining a temperature TST of a steel beam (2) after the beam has been water-cooled in a cooling machine, the method comprising: - acquiring cooling configuration data specifying which faces of the beam are impinged by water jets, and acquiring the corresponding water flow values, - for the different faces (W1, W2, F1 – F6) of the beam, determining, from the cooling configuration data, what cooling regime undergoes the face of the beam considered, the cooling regime being selected among, at least: direct water-cooling; powered cooling when the face has no water projected thereon, by any of the jets, but another face, which adjoins laterally the face considered, has water projected thereon; air-cooling; - computing cooling powers for the different faces of the beam, depending on the corresponding cooling regimes, and, when appropriate, depending on the associated water flow value.
