MODELING OF C-Mn CHROMIUM CONTAINING STEEL TO PRODUCE DP600 THROUGH THIN SLAB DIRECT ROLLING

摘要

The design of new steel grades and microstructures is mostly motivated by the necessity of steel industry to process always better suited high strength steel with low production costs. Automotive customers are asking for more steel options to meet increased specifications for strength, crash worthiness, energy absorption, part complexity, and dent resistance. To meet these requirements, new developed types of steel known as Advanced High-Strength Steels (AHSS) were introduced (e.g.: DP steel "Dual Phase", TRIP steel "Transformation Induced Plasticity",…etc). This paper presents a case study for producing DP600 dual phase steel in EZDK company through building up an integrated model to predicting both final austenite grain size after finishing rolling and the final ferrite grain size after cooling.
