Combustion of the plate ?


1. combustion of gas (acetylene, propane, 0.5 bar) 2. heating of subsurface to ignition temperature 3. combustion of iron within the oxygen (7 bar) jet, oxides are blown out in the jet, (exothermic process ,autogenous)

1. nozzle 2. gas -oxygen (heating) 3. oxygen -jet (cutting) 4. plate to be cut 5. heating flame

In brief

Oxy acetylene flame preheats the metal to the ignition point at the place to be cut. It also provides a protective shield between the cutting oxygen stream and the atmosphere.

Cutting oxygen combines with iron to form iron oxide.

The flame straightening of a plate is based in principle on a local heating of the area to be shortened in combination with the hindrance of thermal expansion by the cold vicinity. This causes a bulging of the heated zone. When cooling down to ambient temperature the resulting tensile stresses will lead to the required deformation.

12.01.2010 ADVANCED STEEL FOR THE FUTURE

Verfasser/Dokument

The efficiency of the process depends on :


thermal field wall thickness heating rate very narrow located heating restraint and stiffness of the construction

12.01.2010 ADVANCED STEEL FOR THE FUTURE

Verfasser/Dokument

Lower limit of applicable temperature At peak temperature the area to be straightened must undergo plastic deformation. During subsequent cooling the compressive stresses turn into tensile stresses. The final tensile stresses are producing the effect on geometry. Thus the temperature must be increased above the temperature where sufficiently high compression stress are built up so that the yielding occurs The yield strength at elevated temperature is lowered to such an extent that the compressive stress will lead to sufficient bulging of the area to be straightened. For S355 / 420M steel both conditions are fulfilled for temperatures exceeding approximately 450C. So any lower temperatures are ineffective for shaping.

12.01.2010 ADVANCED STEEL FOR THE FUTURE

61

Verfasser/Dokument

Upper limit of applicable temperature The upper limit of the temperature range is shall not be exceeded in order to regain the mechanical properties of the plate after subsequent cooling. Two different flame straightening procedures have to be distinguished because they require different temperature limits.

In the first case the plate is only superficially heated. The heat input related to the plate thickness is small. Due to the steep temperature gradients in the through thickness direction cooling is very fast. Cooling speed is in the range of high heat input welding. Due to the fast transformation again a fine grained microstructure is achieved which is very similar to the initial microstructure. So are the mechanical properties. Temperatures above 925C shall not be permitted to avoid grain growth. (examples: line heating)

Surface heating rapid cooling peak temperature max. 900-950C

In the second case the entire cross section of the plate is heated. The heat input related to the plate thickness is high. The heated area cools down slower than in the first case. The larger the heated area the slower the cooling. Air cooling represents the very extreme of such procedure. To avoid softening of the steel temperatures exceeding 600C are not permitted. For a short period 650C may still be acceptable, but clearly below 700C so that a partial transformation to austenite can be excluded. (examples: wedge heating, triangular heating)

Summary and conclusion


No hot forming allowed No heat treatment above ~600C Processing temperatures up to ~600C are acceptable warm-forming, PWHT, Good initial toughness allows considerable cold deformation Excellent weldability as a result of the optimised chemical composition, benefits: the omission of preheating, the application of higher weld deposition rates omission of post weld heat treatment

Weight reduction in the construction without a drawback for processing

Distortion caused by residual stress : Yield strength will lower with increasing temperature Tensile stress occurs when material shrinks Transformation constituents (martensite/perlite) have higher volume than
austenite, this creates compressive stress
