FE Analysis of Hot Strips’ Temperature Distribution in Laminar Cooling Process

Abstract:

The temperature distribution of the hot-rolled strip in the ROT cooling process was calculated and analyzed using ABAQUS in this paper. The complicated heat transfer coefficients of hot strip considering the position effects of top and bottom nozzles, and the non-uniform heat transfer situation along the width direction were defined by user subroutine. The simulation results were in good correlation with test results. It’s helpful for further analysis to improve the temperature distribution uniformity and the simulation accuracy for FE model, and guide the on-site production.
