An accurate prediction of temperature and stress evolution in work rolls is crucial to assess the service life of the work roll. In this paper, a finite element method (FEM) model with a deformable work roll and a meshed, rigid body considering complex thermal boundary conditions over the roll surface is proposed to assess the temperature and the thermal stress in work rolls during hot rolling and subsequent idling. After that, work rolls affected by the combined action of temperature gradient and rolling pressure are investigated by taking account of the hot strip. The accuracy of the proposed model is verified through comparison with the calculation results obtained from the mathematical model. The results show that thermal stress is dominant in the bite region of work rolls during hot rolling. Afterwards, the heat treatment residual stresses which are related to thermal fatigue are simulated and introduced into the work roll as the initial stress to evaluate the redistribution under the thermal cyclic loads during the hot rolling process. Results show that the residual stress significantly changed near the roll surface.

The paper presents the design and implementation of a computer system dedicated to the optimization of a hot strip rolling process. The software system proposed here involves the flexible integration of virtual models of various devices used in the process: furnace, descalers, rolling stands, accelerated cooling systems, and coiler. The user can configure an arbitrary sequence of operations and perform simulations for this sequence. The main idea of the system and its implementation details are described in the paper. Besides the computer science part, the material models describing the rolling parameters, microstructure evolution, phase transformations, and product properties are also presented. Effect of precipitation was accounted for various stages of the rolling cycle. Experimental tests were performed to generate data for identification of the models. These include plastometric tests, two-step compression tests, and dilatometric tests. Following this, physical simulations of rolling cycles were performed on Gleeble 3800 to supply data for the verification and validation of the models. Finally, case studies of modern industrial processes were performed, and the selected results are presented.

In the reverse hot strip rolling, the coiling and uncoiling of the strip leads to unstable conditions during the forming process. Both the temperature of the strip and the dwell time in the coil vary and influence the microstructure evolution passing in the coil during reverse rolling. It makes the design of this process difficult. Therefore, development of the temperature model for the reverse hot rolling including coiling and uncoiling was the main objective of the paper. The identification of the unknown parameters of the boundary conditions is proposed. Methods for their determination are discussed. The analysis is performed on example of the reverse hot rolling of the magnesium alloy AZ31. The resulting temperature model reveals good agreement with thermocouple and pyrometer measurements.

Computational models of deformation and friction work were established by dividing contact arc between strip and work roll into two sliding regions, two braking regions and one stagnating region. A two dimensional temperature field model of work roll was established by finite difference method according to practical boundary conditions. Simulation results show that with the increase of rolling pass, deformation work reduced while friction work increased, except that deformation and friction works at the last pass were the least. The computed rolling forces and work roll surface temperatures agree well with measured values collected from a hot strip mill.

It is necessary to know the heat transfer intensity for predicting temperature distribution in the hot strip rolling process. The HTC (heat transfer coefficient) was usually obtained by the experiments and mathematical model. In this paper the HTC prediction was discussed based on the measured or target temperature by the proposed finite element method (FEM). The temperature evolution and HTC in the hot strip rolling process according to a certain plant were analyzed by the iteration calculation. The result shows that the HTC between strip and work roll was much more than the value in the air cooling and water cooling process. Furthermore, the HTC value is lower in the air cooling process compared with that of water cooling. The maximum and minimum value of HTC were about 1.5×105 (W/m2.K) and 80(W/m2.K) respectively. The temperature in the rough rolling according to the predicted HTC has been solved and the calculated results have a good agreement to the meausred value. Therefore, the research could be used to control the temperature distribution accurately and optimize the parameters.
