The work is concerned with determining the constituent parts of the ordered and disordered processes, which occur during the cyclic movement of the billet, and with their use, investigating how the technological parameters of continuous casting affect the loss of the potential resistivity of the billet. A technique is developed, according to which action vectors of the ordered and disordered processes are created that made it possible to create the equation to determine the loss of potential resistivity $\Delta R_{zt}$ of the billet during the cycle by summing the scalar values $L^{\textrm{B}}_{\textrm{рух}}$ of vector projections on the billet axis of the disordered and ordered processes $\xi^{\textrm{B}}_{\textrm{Г}}$ for point B; using the ratio of the projections of the scalar values $L^{\textrm{B}}_{\textrm{рух}}$ of the main vectors of the disordered and ordered processes $\xi^{\textrm{B}}_{\textrm{ТВ}}$ for point B, the efficiency coefficient of ordered processes is determined. Thus, the work defines the constituent parts of both ordered and disordered processes and the influence on them of the technological parameters of the continuous casting process that made it possible to determine under which conditions and how technological processes affect the indicator of loss of potential resistivity $\Delta R_{zt}$, to determine under which conditions we can reduce the $\Delta R_{zt}$ indicator or make its value constant. The paper also shows how the technological parameters of the continuous casting process affect such components of the billet hardening as the crystallization rate $\dot{\xi}$ during the normal course of time, the hardening coefficient $k_{\textrm{тв}}$ and the loss of $\Delta R_{zt}$.
