Abstract:The solid-liquid phase front inside the mould progresses from the rail end towards the weld centre and from rail base to rail head, such that the temporal and spatial evolution of the solid-liquid phase front results in a V-shaped solidification.Finally, the simulation results are qualitatively compared with experiments conducted at Goldschmidt Holding GmbH. The predicted temperature profiles in the rail during preheating and cooling stage, fusion zone (FZ) and heat-affected zone (HAZ) have shown a good agreem… Show more
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.
