Abstract

The high-temperature deformation behaviour of low-carbon steel can be described by the superposition of work hardening and the combination of dynamic recovery and recrystallization. This las mode of restoration takes place once a critical strain, which depends on the strain rate and the temperature at which the test is conducted, is surpassed. Allowance is made for the grain size and the chemical composition of the steel in order to fit the experimental data. The model is employed to predict the separation forces recorded during the industrial production of low-carbon steel strip in a six-stand continuous mill.

      In research [2,8–13], it was found that the addition of carbon decreases the activation energy. While in investigations [14–19], it was found that the addition of carbon increases the hot deformation activation energy of steel. Given the disagreement on the effect of carbon as illustrated above, in this research, hot deformation tests were conducted for a 0.05 wt.

      After 480 s into the first quenching stage (Fig. 5a), the temperature in the flange was predicted to be 590˚C and the internal stress was predicted to be approx. 150 MPa. For steels of similar compositions (carbon content, metallurgical phase and micro alloying elements) several studies have reported temperature dependant flow stress values between 120 MPa and 150 MPa for temperatures ranging from 600 °C and 850 °C [15–22]. Fig. 5a shows that the stresses at locations A and C are between 150 MPa and 200 MPa in the first quenching stage (600—850 °C) which are greater than the steel’s flow stress and can therefore likely to cause quench cracking and this finding is in agreement experimental quenching trials (Fig. 3).

      Such heterogeneous conditions are likely to exert a strong influence on the microstructure and texture formation during downstream thermomechanical processing. The above cited phenomena make the high temperature deformation of silicon containing steels quite different from the behaviour observed in conventional low-carbon steels [6]. The influence of deformation parameters on the transformation and texture evolution of Fe–Si single crystals has been the subject of interest of many researches, but there is a limited amount of information concerning the high temperature deformation of poly-textured electrical steels [7–13].
