          Application No. 09/660,797                                                   


                                        APPENDIX                                       

               1.  A method of cooling a steel section from rolling heat,              
          wherein the section has different section parts of different masses          
          located at a distance from each other over a cross-section of the            
          section, the method comprising initially determining and computing           
          heat quantities to be proportionally removed from the different              
          section parts in dependence on the masses and temperatures thereof           
          and a quantity of cooling medium required for removing the heat by           
          using measuring equipment together with a computing unit by means            
          of a computer program, and subsequently carrying out cooling of the          
          different section parts in a controlled manner such that the                 
          different section parts reach with as little time delay as possible          
          the transformation line Ar3/Ar1 during the decomposition of the              
          gamma-mixed crystal into ferrite and/or pearlite while releasing             
          the transformation heat.                                                     






















                                          9
