Abstract

A finite element based approach that can be used to investigate the plane-view shape and crop loss of a material during plate rolling is presented. We employed a three-dimensional finite element model to continuously simulate the shape change of the head and tail of a plate as the number of rolling passes increases. The main feature of the proposed model lies in the fact that the multistage rolling can be simulated without a break because the rolling direction of the material is reversibly controlled as the roll gap sequentially decreases. The material constants required in the finite element analysis were experimentally obtained by hot tensile tests. We also performed a pilot hot plate rolling test to verify the usefulness of the proposed finite element model. Results reveal that the computed plane-view shapes as well as crop losses by the proposed finite element model were in good agreement with the measured ones. The crop losses predicted by the proposed model were within 5% of those measured from the pilot hot plate rolling test.

후판압연 중에 발생하는 소재의 평면형상과 손실량을 정확하게 고찰할 수 있는 유한요소에 기초한 접근법을 제시한다. 압연의 패스 수가 증가함에 따른 소재의 선, 후단부의 형상을 연속적으로 모사할 수 있는 3 차원 유한요소모델을 도입하였다. 본 모델의 가장 큰 특징은 다단 압연을 할 수 있도록 롤 갭이 순차적으로 감소됨에 따라 소재의 압연 방향을 바꾸면서 중단 없이 해석 가능하다는데 있다. 유한요소해석에서 요구되는 재료상수는 열간 인장시험에 의해서 실험적으로 얻어졌다. 제시된 유한요소모델의 유용성을 입증하기 위해서 파이롯트 열간 판압연 시험을 실시하였다. 제시된 유한요소모델로 계산된 평면형상과 손실량이 판압연 시험에서 실제 측정된 양과 매우 잘 일치하는 결과를 얻었다. 제시된 모델로 예측한 손실량과 판압연 시험에서 측정한 양 사이의 오차는 5% 이하로 나타났다.
