Abstract
The hot tensile deformation behaviors of 316LN austenitic stainless steel (ASS) were studied on a Gleeble-1500D thermal simulator under the deformation temperature of 1173-1473 K and strain rate of 0.01-1 s-1. The effects of deformation temperature and strain rate on hot deformation behaviors were analyzed. Based on experimental data, the constitutive equation was established, and the predicted peak stresses by the developed model agree well with the experimental data. Microstructure near the fracture and the percentage reduction of area were studied, and the results showed that the microstructural evolution has great influences on the percentage reduction of area. Under the deformation temperature of 1473K with the strain rate of 1s-1, the grain was the finest and most homogenous, and in this deformation condition the percentage reduction of area was the highest of 79.8%.
