Abstract:
1. An operating method for a cooling section for cooling a rolling stock, comprising: receiving by a control device for the cooling section information which is at least partially characteristic for an initial enthalpy value, receiving by the control device a final temperature value and at least one final phase proportion value and determining a final enthalpy value therefrom, determining by the control device a quantitative coolant profile such that a heat quantity corresponding to the difference between the initial enthalpy value and final enthalpy value is taken from a rolling stock section of the rolling stock as it passes through the cooling section, determining by the control device the quantitative coolant profile irrespective of whether the final temperature value is reached at the end of the application of a coolant to the rolling stock, applying by the control device the coolant to the rolling stock section as it passes through the cooling section in accordance with the determined quantitative coolant profile.
