Hot-rolled strips are cooled on the run-out table to achieve the customer-required mechanical properties. Cooling reduces the oxidation, which can assist the coiling operation. The ability to obtain a range of mechanical properties from a single steel grade reduces the use of alloying elements (elements added to a metal or an alloy which are incorporated in the metallic structure and change in the properties of the basic alloy) and the size of the slab inventories. So in this paper, the high-temperature steel strip cooling pattern with the temperature of 870 °C and reaching the temperature of 630 °C using water and air is studied. Moreover, the numerical simulation of the high-temperature strip cooling and its cooling method is carried out. The results are compared with the similar sampler ones. The changes of three key parameters such as change in strip speed and its effect on cooling rate, change in pattern and arrangement of water showers and its effects and change in the cooling water temperature are investigated. It was found that the uniformity of the heat distribution inside the strip was increased, but the temperature of the strip was lower than the required temperature. The middle and up surface temperatures of the strip were performed at a speed of 3.48 (m s −1 ), which showed a very good match with the actual tested sample.
