Abstract The three-dimensional transient thermal problem of work rolls in the entire hot rolling process has been formulated. It includes the time-varying boundary conditions specified at the roll surface taking the schedule of both rolling and idling cycles into consideration. The corresponding finite element equations are derived and solved by the Runge-Kutta-Verner method. The finite element solutions indicate that the temperature variations in the circumferential direction are overwhelming. Case studies unveil the thermal characteristics of the work rolls in various kinds of mill operations. Numerical results are presented and compared with Guo’s analytical solutions.
