Hot Torsion Tests - A Reliable Rolling Simulation Method for C-Mn Steels

Article Preview

Abstract:

Torsion tests have been proven to be a successful method to simulate the hot rolling of steels. Simulation work performed at a laboratory scale together with the analysis of the resulting mean-flow-stress behavior, leads to important metallurgical information to be considered during full-scale rolling processes. In this work, two different hot deformation schedules of C-Mn steels have been performed on a Gleeble simulation system in hot torsion mode. In addition to the torsion tests, the mean-flow-stresses of industrial rolling data were analyzed. Industrial hot deformation schedules simulated using hot torsion and the mean-flow-stress values were plotted versus the inverse of absolute temperature in the same graph. All points match the same behavior showing that torsion testing is a reliable hot working simulation method.
