Numerical Modeling and Experimental Investigation for Optimization in Quenching Processes of Aluminum and Steel Parts

Aluminum and steel components are usually quenched in forced gas, oil or water flow to improve mechanical properties and improve product life. During the quenching process, heat is transferred rapidly from the hot metal component to the quenchant and the rapid temperature drop introduces phase trans...
