Grain size dependence of austenite decomposition in air-cooled 16MnCr5 Steel

  • Colorado School of Mines

Research output: Contribution to journalJournal articlepeer-review

Abstract

A hot-rolled and controlled rolled 16MnCr5 steel was analyzed after similar industrial cooling conditions. The hot rolled steel had a ferrite-bainite microstructure whereas the controlled rolled steel had a ferrite-pearlite microstructure. The prior austenite grain size was found to be the controlling factor based on a cooling analysis. The effect of prior austenite grain size on the bainite start temperature had to be considered in the transformation model.
