Physically motivated, the model relates activation energy of the process with that of bulk self-diffusion. The known dependence of the latter on chemical composition of austenite solid solution, established previously, essentially simplifies the modeling. Employed empirical parameters have been fitted to relevant data covering a wide range of chemical compositions (12 steels) and sizes of recrystallized austenite grains. The model satisfactorily complies with experiments on steels whose apparent activation energy of recrystallization varies from 146.1 to 308.1 kJ/mol. It is notable as well that this performance has been achieved with no direct allowance for the pinning of grain boundaries by solute atoms (solute drag effect).","PeriodicalId":21337,"journal":{"name":"Revue De Metallurgie-cahiers D Informations Techniques","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84529559","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The alkaline character of the blast furnace charge affects the efficiency of the iron production process in the blast furnace. The basicity of the raw ore material also affects the cost of the process, which may require additional basic additives. However, raw ore materials can be evaluated according to a range of criteria, which may be physical, chemical, economic or technological in character. In each category, many other criteria can be identified. Metallurgical companies have long endured problems in selecting suitable raw ore types and other input sources. Complications generally arise because of the wide spectrum of criteria, but also their varying character, which is difficult to uniformly assess. The range of criteria can be evaluated in categorically different units, which is then difficult to compare at an overall level. The significance and influence of basicity in relation to other key criteria in assessing ores was experimentally assessed in this research. The overall quality of the selected ores was also assessed under this task. Ore quality was analysed according to key criteria, which vary in character. Research was conducted at the company TŘINECKÉ ŽELEZÁRNY, a.s. The article discusses the results of research on the significance of basicity in the assessment criteria structure for ores and demonstrates the possibility of assessing ores using mathematical tools.","PeriodicalId":21337,"journal":{"name":"Revue De Metallurgie-cahiers D Informations Techniques","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85474197","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The maximum completely recoverable strain and temperatures of reverse martensitic transformation were estimated by a thermomechanical method using a bending mode for strain inducing.

Nominal thickness of TBF sheets were 0.95 and 1.55 mm. Optical microscope was used to observe the cracks formed in the weld zone. The indentation depths were determined by ultrasonic technique. Tensile shear tests were applied to the welded specimens in order to determine the mechanical properties. Higher weld current and time resulted in higher nugget size and indentation depth. This increase in nugget size and indentation depth with increasing of weld current and weld time was almost linearly. The liquid metal embrittlement crack sensitivity in the HAZ was very high on TBF spot welds. The liquid metal embrittlement cracks were much deeper and wider along the weld periphery regions compared to the nugget regions. These cracks were occurred easily with a higher heat input and the crack depth increased almost linearly with increasing of heat input. Weld strength of the specimens was governed by crack formation in the HAZ. Lower weld currents and weld times resulted in higher tensile shear properties. The highest tensile shear load (18.50 kN) and energy absorption (37.5 J) were achieved at 6 kA for 20 cycles.

Many parts of the primary circuit of VVER 440 and VVER 1000-type nuclear power plants are manufactured of this steel. This means that the material must possess very good corrosion resistance and thermal stability of structure. Yield strength of at least 177 MPa at 350 °C is required. Heat treatment of this steel comprises several important stages which affect the resulting mechanical properties. In particular, the solution and stabilization annealing after forging or rolling are time and energy consuming. Therefore, various ways to optimize these processes are being sought. A combination of solution annealing at 1020 °C for 15 and 30 minutes and stabilization annealing at 720 °C with dwell of 2.5 hours to 15 hours was tested on 08Ch18N10 steel samples. The aim was to establish the effects of stabilization annealing and solution annealing times on mechanical properties. Longer solution annealing has a pronounced effect on the reduction of scatter in mechanical properties. All annealing routes led to yield strengths at 350 °C higher than 200 MPa and tensile strengths of more than 380 MPa.","PeriodicalId":21337,"journal":{"name":"Revue De Metallurgie-cahiers D Informations Techniques","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90950230","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hence, it has become the consensus of the industry to develop new on-line cooling equipment that can adjust and control the cooling capacity along the width direction (WD). Therefore, a multi-functional test platform was designed based on the U-pipes used in the industrial runout table cooling process. A steady-state Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model was built based on the Fluent software, and the influence of the main pipe inlet pressure, U-pipe inner diameter, restrictor ring thickness, and restrictor ring inner diameter was analyzed. The results indicate that the flow rate increases as the U-pipe inner diameter increase when there is no restrictor ring, and the result is contrary when there is a restrictor ring. The influence of main pipe inlet pressure, restrictor ring thickness, and restrictor ring inner diameter on the flow rate is monotonic. Besides, the restrictor ring inner diameter has a wide flow rate adjusting range and has little impact on the equipment structure, which helps to reduce the reconstruction cost. Finally, considering the influence of geometric parameters, the flow rate engineering calculation models of the U-pipe were derived and verified, which lays the theoretical foundation to customize the flow rate distribution along the WD at the design stage.","PeriodicalId":21337,"journal":{"name":"Revue De Metallurgie-cahiers D Informations Techniques","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89994466","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
