REACTION KINETICS OF THE FORMATION OF INTERMETALLIC Fe – Zn DURING HOT - DIP GALVANIZING OF STEEL

P. Pokorny, J. Kolisko, L. Balik – Czech Technical University – Klokner Institute, Prague, Czech Republic P. Novak – Institute of Chemical Technology, Prague, Czech Republic This review article mainly describes the composition of intermetallic Fe Zn, i.e. zeta (ζ), delta (δ1k + δ1p), gamma1 (Γ1) and gamma (Γ) on galvanized steel during low temperature galvanization (t ~ 450 °C). It gives detail...

Some Applications of Neural Networks for Condition Monitoring in Industrial Systems for Hot Dip Zinc Galvanizing

The paper describes the abilities of some particular neural network structures (NNS) to provide condition monitoring in a real industrial system, designated for hot dip zinc galvanizing. Condition assessment of a molten zinc bath furnace, and more specifically analysis and prediction of the technical condition in galvanizing kettle walls are also developed in this paper.

Prediction of Work Roll Initial Crown according to Desired Strip Profile in Hot Rolling

The final hot strip profile is a superposition of the roll initial crown, the roll bending and flattening crown, the roll wearing crown and the roll thermal crown. In this research, linear regression models are proposed to predict the roll force, the roll wearing crown and the roll thermal crown using experimental data provided by Mobarake Steel Complex (MSC). The short beam theory based on ela...

Coiler Control in Endless Hot Strip Rolling

JFE Steel Corporation’s East Japan Works (Chiba District) started operation of No.3 Hot Strip Mill in 1995. This line was the first in the world to achieve “endless hot strip rolling.” A new Coiler Control technology was developed. Copyright 2005 IFAC
