The uneven elongation between flange and web can make long tongue in the head of H-beam, which can lead to too long crop end length. In order to control the tongue length of H-beam head, different elongation ratio between flange and web is put forward to control the head displacement of H-beam. If the flange and web elongation is uniform, the loss of crop end length will be reduced. At the same time, different cooling speed of flange and web is set to keep the section uniform temperature. Experimental investigations of H-beam rolling are carried out on the universal mill in the Rolling Lab of Hebei polytechnic University. Comparisons between experimental value and simulation results prove the correctness of elongation ratio of flange and web.

H-beam is widely used in the construction in virtue of its excellent sectional properties. Because of its complex section, flange and web are deformed in different zones in rolling process. The traditional elongation ratio between flange and web is 1.03~1.05, which obtained from experience. Web wave, crack, or flange crack, and the large residual stress exist in the H-beam production. The problems are mainly caused by the uneven elongation of flange and web. It is necessary to keep uniform elongation of flange and web to solve these problems. The modified reduction ratio between flange and web is provided in this paper. The ratios improve the quality of H-beam by simulation and experiment.

Due to the complexity of H-beam’s cross section, it is difficult to calculate the rolling force and force torque accurately using classic formulas conveniently when H-beams of new size are developed. This paper describes an investigation into the reversing process of H-beam using MARC software and compares the results with rolling data from the production line. A FEM model involving in three-dimensional, elastic-plastic and thermo-mechanical coupling has been established successfully to predict multi-pass rolling process. The analysis produces outputs such as deformation rules, rolling force and the web thickening. The influence of rolling reduction, the reduction rate between the web and flange are also discussed. The indications are that there is much difference between the measurement of rolling force and the rolling force calculated by using classic formulas. The reason is that real reduction during rolling process is much more than the scheduled one. A new revised method was suggested to calculate the rolling force. The simulation results show that this new method for calculating rolling force is feasible.

Web and flange of H-beam are deformed indifferent zone in the rolling process, so non-uniform deformation is easily generated. In order to ensure the uniform elongation of flange and web, usually , the elongation ratio of flange is 3~5% more than that of web. Web wave or crack often appears. Flange wave, crack even tension fracture often appears. Experiment are designed that the elongation ratio of flange and web are changed to ensure the uniform elongation of flange and web. Thus, the rolling quality of H-beam is improved. The recommended rolling rule is provided, which can provide the accordance for actual production.

In order to research the hot rolling process of large H-beam, the thermal-mechanical coupling analysis and big distortion theory are used to simulate the whole X-H rolling process of HN900x300 by ABAQUS, in which the re-meshing technique is taken into simulation to increase the accuracy. Based on the simulation results, the stress and deflection of the roller as well as the metal flowing law and temperature field of workpiece are discussed emphatically. The results clearly show that the roller is subjected to alternating shear force and compressive stresses of three directions, and the metal of flange tends to flow from outside to inside. The simulation results are compared with the measuring results, which proves the correctness of simulation.

In order to research the forming process of H-beam, based on the large H-beam production line of HN600x200, the Standard and Explicit solver of ABAQUS are synthetically used to establish finite element model for rolling process and inter-pass thermolysis process. The reciprocation multi-pass rolling process simulation procedure based on the re-meshing technology is used to simulate the whole production process form blanks to finish products, and the continuity of data is ensured. Based on the simulation results, the deformation and rolling force of the roller as well as the metal flowing law and temperature field of workpiece are discussed emphatically. The results clearly show that the displacement of roller contains the elastic deformation and the deflection, and the counterforce of left adds to the counterforce of right is about equal to the resultant force. The simulation results are compared with the measuring results, which proves the correctness of simulation.

In order to guarantee the requirements of H-beam microstructure and property, its must have a certain compression ratio in the rolling process from blank to finished products. This paper simulated and analyzed the law of H-beam equivalent stress change for beam blank cogging with software DEFORM. Simulation results show that the compression ratio is 10.78 in the rolling process from blank to finished products; after BD cogging, blank size meet the requirements of A hole by rolling one pass into CCS rolling, the law of H-beam equivalent stress mainly focus on the waist and haunch joint in the whole process of beam blank cogging.

According to the production data of a rolling H-beam factory, the FE model of hot continuous rolling process of H-beam is built. The rolling process of H-beams is simulated by explicit dynamic FEM, and the influence of deformation parameters on the spread of rolling piece is analyzed. The simulation results show that the flange width, elongation ratio between flange and web and flange thickness are the major influencing factors on the spread of rolling piece.

According to the production data of a rolling H-beam factory, the FE model of hot continuous rolling process of H-beam is built. With the FEM software of DEFORM-3D, the continuous rolling of H-beam was simulated. On base of simulation result, the metal flow and deformation law are discussed. Because of the flange and web is deformed in the different deformation zone, the metal flow law of flange and web is complex, especially the metal of the conjunction of flange and web. The exchange of metal between the flange and the web of H-beam alters to the different elongation ratio of flange and web. The other factors which influents on the metal flow , are taken into consideration, such as rolling speed and friction coefficient. By adjustment to the rolling parameters, the defect of the H-beam is reduced.

The manufacturing of the ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) vacuum vessel involves the welding of thick deformed plates. The aim of this study is to investigate the influence of forming residual stresses on the welding distortions of two thick plates. The plates are deformed using a three point rolling process. A first numerical simulation is performed to investigate the residual stresses induced by this process. The forming residual stresses are taken into account as initial conditions to perform the electron beam welding simulation of a deformed plate. This simulation first requires calibrating the heat source. Two welding simulations are then performed: the first one with residual stresses and the second one without. The comparison of the simulation results points out a low effect of the residual stresses on the electron beam welding distortions. As a result, in the next electron beam welding simulations of the vacuum vessel, no forming residual stresses will be taken into account.
