In this work, effects of homogenization time of 3 to 13 h at 1200 °C on the grain refinement of as-cast AISI 301 stainless steel after different hot rolling conditions were investigated. The results showed that the minimum grain size of 16±7 mm was achieved when homogenization took place at 1200 °C for 9 h followed by hot rolling at temperature range of 1000–1200 °C with strain of 0.8 and stra...

the hot charging of continuously cast slabs steel is usually considered an effective method to reduce theenergy consumption in the hot rolling mills. in this work the application and optimizing of hot charging ofcontinuously cast slab in mobareke steel company has been investigated. mathematical relationship betweenthe cooling time of the stack of slabs and its mass average temperature is descr...

Scale defects are common surface defects in hot steel rolling. The modelling of such defects is problematic and their causes are not straightforward. In this study, we investigated genetic algorithms in search for a mathematical solution to scale formation. For this research, a high-dimensional data set from hot steel rolling process was gathered. The synchronisation of the variables as well as...

The casting and hot rolling process is a most important and widely used industrial route to produce aluminum alloy sheet[I]. Because rolling is such a high volume process and the capital expenditure in plants and fabrication facilities is so large, even small cost savings or increases in efficiency can result in a very large total money savings[2, 3]. To remove the very costly and time-consumin...

In order to achieve the nonsmooth surface drag reduction structure on the inner polymer coating of oil and gas pipelines and improve the efficiency of pipeline transport, a structural model of the machining robot on the pipe inner coating is established. Based on machining robot, an experimental technique is applied to research embossing and coating problems of rolling-head, and then the moldin...

Phenomenological approach to the description of deformation resistance behaviour of steel and its microstructure development under the service hot rolling condition is still the most common useful and powerful. Utilising different experimental equipment such as torsion plastometer [1-5], compression plastometer [6-9], or advanced laboratory mills [10, 11] as well as different deformation techni...

This paper is concerned with investigations into the effect of tension between the stands of the finishing mill on width control in a hot rolling process. An analysis is given to predict satisfactorily the variation in width due to spreading and also due to strip tension between the stands. Wusatowski's model which is developed to give an account of spreading is specified and a similar model to...

Temperature is the main process variable needed for every operation in hot rolling process for all value addition activity and can be considered as main variable also to control pollution.. It is a tool for the steel hot rolling plant to improve profitability, environment and productivity by controlling the process energy balance by its sequences optimization. In the steel rolling plant the imp...
