Multi-field coupling numerical simulation and experimental research of submerged arc surfacing process on the descaling rolls with different wall thickness

Iron and steel industry descale rolls long-term high-pressure water erosion, high temperature, easy to wear, corrosion failure and other problems, the continuous production of steel rolling impact, descale rolls base wall thickness is the main cause of cracking of the surfacing gradient lap organization. This article combines numerical simulation and experimental testing, the use of CALPHAD method to calculate the surfacing material temperature change physical parameters, based on the double ellipsoid heat source model, the establishment of the descale roller submerged arc surfacing process of multi-field coupling three-dimensional numerical model, calculations and reveal the descale roller submerged arc surfacing process of the temperature field, the stress field, the phase change field and the flow field of the transient evolution of the law, and further analyze the descale roller wall thickness of the surfacing process of the influence of the mechanism. Calculation results show that the depth of melting of the surfacing matrix is positively correlated with the width of the double ellipsoid heat source, and the larger the wall thickness, the faster the cooling rate, the greater the formation of residual stress. The austenite and martensite phase transformation of the overlay welding process is greatly influenced by the wall thickness. At the same time, SEM, EDS, XRD material science microcharacterization experiments were carried out to observe the micro-morphology, phase and elemental composition of the cladding layer. This study lays an important theoretical foundation for optimizing the submerged arc surfacing process of descale roller.
