Width-adaptable optimized controlled-cooling systems (WACOOLs) for the production of innovative advanced HSS grades and the study of strip shape changes while cooling

Objective

Efficient production of Advanced High Strength Steels (AHSS) require important and parallel improvement of the rolling process and especially of the cooling systems. The microstructures and the resultant mechanical properties of steel depend on the cooling patterns and the steel chemistry.

The prediction of TTT-diagrams and other curves obtained from continuous cooling required for planning the industrial production of AHSS grades will be performed. Symmetrically or asymmetrically controllable as well as edge-masking types of width-adaptable and water-efficient laminar flow cooling systems will be developed and implemented at 3 HSMs.

To complement the strip-cooling & transformation phenomena, an investigation of the strip shape changes, by means of both mathematical modelling and AI techniques, all along the cooling path between finishing mill and down coiler will be undertaken with a view to reducing rejects.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.
