[ 1 ] - Application of Polymeric Quenchants in Heat Treatment of Steels

Aqueous polymer quenchants are being used increasingly in steel heat treatment industries as a substitution for conventional quenchants. By adjusting the quench parameters of the polymeric media, it is possible to achieve desirable microstructure and mechanical properties in addition to reduction in distortion and cracking. In this work, Polyalkylene Glycol (PAG) aqueous solution was used as th...

[ 2 ] - شبیه‌سازی عددی گرمایی- ساختاری فرایند کوئنچ فولادها

In this work, a 3D thermo-microstructural model was developed to simulate the continuous cooling of steel. The model was employed for simulation of cooling process of the gears made from a plain carbon steel (AISI 1045) and a low alloy steel (AISI 4140). Temperature-dependent heat transfer coefficients for two different quenching media were evaluated by experimental and computational methods. ...
