Numerical Simulation and Analysis for Surface Defect Prediction in the Hot Bar Rolling Process

Abstract

Establishment of numerical model for hot rolled bar and analysis the changes from the discrete points on surface during the hot bar rolling process (includes velocity, displacement, equivalent stress, equivalent strain). And the position of surface defects can be effectively predicted form this. Compared with the actual hot rolling bar production, numerical simulation was in good agreement with it. So that the numerical simulation analysis has practical significance for optimizing processing parameters and process design to ensure product quality.
