Abstract
Understanding the hot deformation behavior of steel and establishing corresponding hot processing maps are crucial methods for determining appropriate hot processing parameters. In this article, the hot deformation behavior of a high-nitrogen austenitic stainless steel was investigated in the temperature range of 900–1150 °C and the strain rate range of 0.01–10 s-1 on a Gleeble-3500 thermo-mechanical simulator. The results show that the flow stress of experimental steel increases with decreasing deformation temperature and increasing strain rate. Based on the Arrhenius model, a constitutive equation was developed for the experimental steel, with a hot deformation activation energy of 603.347 kJ/mol. The hot processing maps were created employing the dynamic material model to determine the optimum hot processing conditions for the experimental steel at different strain levels.
