Abstract: This study deals with the effect of oxide layer during ultra-fast cooling of a hot plain carbon steel plate. In the current research, the hot plain carbon steel plates were cooled from an initial surface temperature of 900°C by using air atomized spray at different air pressures. The heat transfer analysis illustrates that during high pressure air atomized spray cooling, the average surface temperature is almost unaffected by the presence of an oxide layer. For better understanding, the plain carbon steel cooling data have been compared with the data obtained during the cooling of a stainless-steel plate.
