Abstract:

In order to analyze the reasonability of the existing shaped-metal rolling process, the microstructure evolution and the rolling force must besynthetically considered. This paper proposes an integrated numerical analysis procedure to simulate the multi-pass rough rolling process of H-beam, establishes a high-temperature yield stress model and an austenite-grain evolution model based on the thermal simulation and the metallographic observation, and presents a multi-pass simulation method through a re-meshing procedure. Simulated results of an 11-pass rough rolling process of a typical-size H-beam show that the calculated rolling force accord well with the measured ones, and that the austenite grains at the web can be apparently fined after the rough rolling.

Key words: hot rolling, plastic deformation, H-beam, computer simulation
