Abstract
In order to predict residual stresses and distortion caused by quenching in a large low-alloy steel shaft, a computer program based on the finite element method was developed, and uniaxial restraint testing of the transient strain during cooling was carried out. Using the program, the transient stresses occurring during quenching are calculated by a step-by-step procedure, and the effects of transformational behaviour on residual stresses and distortion discussed. The results show that the transient stresses and the transformation affect each other, and that residual stresses and distortion are strongly related to the transformational behaviour.MST/8
