Abstract

The paper proposes a model for a cold rolling mill process in the full-film regime that uses lubricant emulsion sprayed on at the entrance of the strip. The aim of the model is to forecast the reduction of strip thickness versus the flow rate of lubricant given the other operation parameters. The model includes strip plastic deformation, lubricant flow and lubricant viscosity depending on pressure. The mathematical problem is a free boundary one and a numerical procedure, applied to an industrial plant, is presented with some results.
