Design of cooling units for heat treatment
Original language description
Microstructure and nature of grains, grain size and composition determine the overall mechanical behavior of steel. Heat treatment provides an efficient way to manipulate the properties of steel by controlling the cooling rate. Way of heat treatment depends on many aspects. One of the most important parameter is the amount of production. Another important parameter is size of products. We focus here on large production such as interstand and run-out table cooling of hot rolled strip, run-out table cooling of sheets and plates, cooling of long products at the exit from a rolling mill, cooling of rails, tubes and special profiles, continuous hardening and heat treatment lines for steel strips. In-line heat treatment is characterized by running of hot material through the cooling section. Design procedure of cooling sections for obtaining the demanded structure and mechanical properties is iterative research involving several important steps. We begin with Continuous Cooling Transformation (CCT) diagram for the selected material. Numerical simulation of cooling follows to find appropriate cooling intensity and its duration. Knowing the desired cooling intensity new cooling section is designed and tested under the laboratory conditions. From the laboratory experiments boundary conditions are obtained and tested using numerical model. When the best solution is found it is tested on the real sample and the result structure is studied. In most cases the process must be repeated as the CCT diagram is for different size of sample and the cooling rate in designed section is not constant.
