The Use of Vanadium in Flat Rolled Products
نویسنده
چکیده
Figure 1, compiled from data in the US Geological Survey indicates that, in 2004, 94% of vanadium used was consumed by the steel industry and 6% by all other uses. Figures 2 and 3 show data on steel production and vanadium consumption over a number of past years. Figure 2 indicates that in 2004 steel production reached a record level of 1.036 billon tonnes, driven largely by increases in steel production in China.

Vanadium in Cold-rolled Sheet Steels
In hot rolled products, which are the subject of other presentations here, vanadium has been used for many years in high strength products, often in combination with other microalloying additions such as niobium or titanium. Vanadium can provide important contributions via both precipitation strengthening and ferrite grain refinement (due to austenite conditioning during thermomechanical proces...

متن کاملUsing Artificial Neural Networks to Predict Rolling Force and Real Exit Thickness of Steel Strips
There is a complicated relation between cold flat rolling parameters such as effective input parameters of cold rolling, output cold rolling force and exit thickness of strips. In many mathematical models, the effect of some cold rolling parameters has been ignored and the outputs have not a desirable accuracy. In the other hand, there is a special relation among input thickness of strips, the ...
متن کاملMicrostructure and mechanical properties of cold rolled, annealed HSLA strip steels
A large testing programme of a strip steel grade, microalloyed by vanadium, titanium and niobium, was conducted. The experiment was based on combination of cold rolling, recrystallization annealing, mechanical testing, metallographic examinations, SEM and TEM analyses. Samples in the form of stripes with dimensions of 3.9×25×500 mm were rolled in several passes with the total height reduction o...
