Analysis of Aluminium Ring Rolling Process Using Thermo-Rigid-Plastic Finite Element Method

강-열점소성 유한요소법을 이용한 알루미늄 링압연 공정 해석

  • Published : 2003.05.01

Abstract

The ring rolling process involves not only three-dimensional non-steady material flow and continuous change of radius and thickness of the ring workpiece but also heat transfer among workpiece, rolls and environment. In this study, deformation and heat transfer analyses were conducted by using the three-dimensional thermo-rigid-plastic finite element method. Three cases of plain ring rolling process were, respectively, simulated for the predictions of roll forces and the highest temperature zone during the aluminum process that ductile fracture often occurs. In addition, to prevent fishtail phenomena of the ring workpiece, axial rolls were used for this study.
