Continuous Cooling Transformation Behavior and the Phase Transformation Model in Low Carbon High Strength Sheet Steel

Abstract

Phase transformation of austenite continuous cooling process in low carbon high strength sheet steel has been researched by DIL805 thermal mechanical simulate. The Austenite continuous cooling transformation (CCT) diagram of steel has been determined by dilatometry and metallography. With the increase of cooling rate, ferritic transformation, perlitic transformation, bainite transformation and martensitic transformation have produced in the organization. Mathematical equations of phase transformation point-cooling rate and phase variable-cooling rate have been established and phase transformation model of high fit degree has been gained by regression calculation. The results show that calculated value and experimental value are nearly similar, so the phase transformation model is feasible.
