In this paper, a thermal dynamic numerical method was carried out to model the austenite static recrystallisation behaviour of steel 33Mn2V used in new non-quenched/tempered oil well tubes at different deformation temperatures, strain rates, deformation amounts and initial microstructures. Based on the MARC/AutoForge software, a three-dimensional thermomechanical coupled elastoplastic finite element model (FEM) was applied to simulate static recrystallisation amount of the two-pass tube tension reducing process of steel 33Mn2V for oil well. The distribution law of static recrystallisation inside the workpiece is analysed. It is indicated that the simulation results are much reliable through comparison with experimental data.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
