Stress and Distortion Evolution During Induction Case Hardening of Tube

Information Authors: Dr. Valentin Nemkov, Mr. Robert Goldstein, Mr. John JackowskiLocation/Venue: 26th ASM HTS Cincinnati, OHTopic: Stress Evolution Download Full Paper Abstract Simulation of stresses during heat treating relates usually to furnace heating. Induction heating provides very different evolution of temperature in the part and therefore different stresses. This may be positive for service properties or negative, reducing component strength or even causing …

Composite Materials for Magnetic Field Control in EPM

Information Authors: V. Nemkov, R. Ruffini, A. KolesnichenkoLocation/Venue: EPM Dresden, GermanyTopic: Concentrators Download Full Paper Abstract Electromagnetic processing of materials requires generation of magnetic field in a very wide range of frequencies (from DC to several hundred kilohertz) and intensities (up to 12 T). AC magnetic systems are used for material stirring, casting, pouring control, transportation, forming etc. These systems typically may have …

Virtual Prototyping of Induction Heat Treating

Information Authors: Robert C. Goldstein, Valentin Nemkov and John JackowskiLocation/Venue: 25th ASM HTS Indianapolis, INTopic: Simulation for Heating/Hardening Prediction Download Full Paper Abstract The time between a product’s definition and production is constantly shrinking. To meet these requirements, extensive use of virtual prototyping has replaced physical models in the mechanical design process. As a result of this, the induction heat treating process developer …
