Definitions
- the invention relates to a heat treatment method according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the objects being heat- treated are first heated to a hardening temperature, after which they are cooled, for example in salt, oil, lead or water baths or in air one batch to be treated at a time.
- FIG. 2A shows phases of a heat treatment method known from prior art.
- the heat treatment furnace is charged and the objects to be heat-treated are placed on the grate of the furnace.
- the furnace is charged with energy and the furnace is heated to anneal the objects.
- the red-hot objects are taken out of the furnace, for example by a forklift truck, after which they are transported into a cooling tank with the help of a crane.
- phase D the cooled objects are lifted up from the cooling tank, and in phase E the objects are transported into the next heat treatment phase, for example into a tempering treatment furnace.
- phase F the furnace is charged with energy, the furnace is heated, the objects are annealed and cooled together with the furnace.
- phase G after the furnace has cooled down to a temperature of e.g. 200 °C, the objects are discharged from the furnace to cool down to room temperature.
- a problem related to prior art arrangements is that the cooling capacity cannot be controlled during the cooling process.
- An object of the invention is to provide a programmable heat treatment method, in which heat treatment takes place programmably with the desired heat-transfer capacities in different temperature ranges.
- a further object of the invention is to provide a heat treatment method that imparts a good quality to the objects that are heat-treated.
- the invention by adjusting the heat-transfer capacity of the object in the cooling phase (convection, radiation) it is possible to control/adjust the rate of change of the temperature of the object to be cooled to the desired level in differ- ent (heat treatment) cooling phases.
- This method enables the cooling process to be controlled so that the desired phase changes and/or microstructures can be achieved.
- the cooling rate of the ob- ject is adjusted by changing the convection-based heat-transfer capacity and/or by changing the radiation heat-transfer capacity.
- Heat transfer by radiation can be controlled by changing the radiation abso ⁇ tion of the furnace walls and by changing (adjusting) the absorption and/or convection properties of the heat radiation of the heat-transfer medium and its endothermic mass.
- the cooling rate of the furnace and of the object are regulated, for example with the help of the amount of air blown into the furnace and with the flow rate of air (air/gas and/or air/particle).
- the cooling capacity can be increased by means of a mixture of liquid and gas or of air and secondary gas.
- the mixture of blast air and liquid (and gas) may also contain solid particles.
- the cooling capacity can also be adjusted by means of the temperature of the mixture to be blown in.
- the gas mixture to be blown in may be e.g. an air-water, air-carbon dioxide, argon- carbonic acid mixture (or the like).
- the object to be cooled is brought from the heat treatment furnace into a (hardening) cooling space, most suitably into a cloud chamber, where the object is (hardened) cooled in a controlled manner at the desired cooling rate in different temperature ranges to achieve the desired material properties.
- a (hardening) cooling space most suitably into a cloud chamber, where the object is (hardened) cooled in a controlled manner at the desired cooling rate in different temperature ranges to achieve the desired material properties.
- a very advantageous and environ- mentally friendly application is to feed an air-water spray, the water being in the form of drops, into the cooling space through one or more nozzles.
- the cooling nozzles may also direct the air-water spray (or, more commonly, the gas-liquid- solid particle) (flow) directly at the object.
- the cooling rate of the object can be controlled to take place locally so that the cooling rate of the different parts of the object is adjusted by directing intensified cooling gas-liquid-particle spray jets locally at the desired areas of the object, for example by applying, in a desired area, the nozzle jet directly and/or by increasing the flow rate and mixture ratio of the cooling medium (gas-liquid-particle mixture) that impinges on the object locally, and/or the areas in which it is desired to slow down the heat flow may be subjected to a weaker cooling medium flow, whereby a low flow rate and/or a less effective heat-transferring mixture ratio is/are used in the flow.
- the capacity of radiation into the furnace walls is adjusted by changing the absorption properties of the atmosphere and lining of the furnace (i.e. how efficiently the lining takes in ("sucks") or reflects heat radiation).
- the basic equation of heat radiation is used as a basis here
- the heat radiation transfer capacity of the wall surfaces of the furnace can, for example, be altered by using grates that are coated with different kinds of coatings and whose heat radiation abso ⁇ tion properties differ from the abso ⁇ tion properties of the furnace.
- a method of radiation-based heat transfer capacity is to alter the abso ⁇ tion properties of the heat radiation of the heat-transferring (blast) gas mixture that has been fed in.
- heat transfer by convection can be regulated by altering the convection properties of the heat- transferring gas mixture.
- thermometer-measuring sensors fastened, e.g. welded to the object.
- the sensors can be located on the surface of the object, and, when necessary, the temperature can also be measured from within the object with a temperature measurement sensor placed in a hole drilled in the object.
- the heat treatment method according to the invention it is possible to save a considerable amount of energy (about 20...30 %) when the cooling process is halted at an intermediate temperature (instead of cooling down to room temperature).
- the heat treatment method according to the invention does away with the need to transport the red-hot object from the furnace into a cooling tank or water- air shower or freely into air. This reduces the amount of work required by the handling of the objects (cf. Figures 2A and 2B).
- the invention is suited, for example, for the heat treatment method of heavily loaded paper machine components made of ferrous metal, e.g. bearing housings, suspension parts for articulated rolls, and the like.
- ferrous metal e.g. bearing housings, suspension parts for articulated rolls, and the like.
