Positive Effects of High-Temperature Steel Creep Behavior on Continuous Casting Slab

Abstract:

Mechanical properties and creep behavior of continuous casting slab subjected to uniaxial tensile tests at 1100 and 1150 °C were considered in this paper. All of specimens was given a typical in-situ melting thermal history and interrupted cooling cycle before testing. An increase in load and temperature accelerates the creep rate thereby decreasing the steady state range. A new creep equation whose parameters are calculated by inverse-estimation using the regression analysis was proposed based on Norton-Bailey creep law. Primary and secondary creep stages could be described accurately by the new equation. Positive creep effects on straightening technology in continuous casting slab were presented in this paper. Involute continuous straightening technology could give full play to the role of steel creep deformation at high temperature. This research is helpful for the design of the new casting machine and improvement of old casting machine in using depended on high temperature creep behavior.
