SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the need for simulation software for designing and manufacturing a heat treatment furnace, specifically for tempering processes. The user seeks a tool that can input parameters such as steel type, thickness, and required hardness to output necessary temperatures and holding times. Recommendations for simulation software that meets these criteria are requested, alongside any relevant databases that could support the project.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of heat treatment processes, specifically tempering.
  • Familiarity with materials science, particularly steel properties.
  • Knowledge of simulation software capabilities and requirements.
  • Basic understanding of furnace design principles.
NEXT STEPS
  • Research available heat treatment simulation software such as Thermo-Calc or JMatPro.
  • Explore databases for material properties, such as MatWeb or ASM Handbooks.
  • Learn about the specific requirements for tempering steel, including temperature and time parameters.
  • Investigate furnace design principles and best practices for heat treatment processes.
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for materials engineers, mechanical engineers, and students involved in heat treatment processes and furnace design projects.

hi
I am working on a senior project entitled"Design and manufacturing a heat treatment furnace", and before designing process, I need a simulation software that we can give inputs like the steel type of the piece that is need to be hardened, the thik of it, hardness degree required, and then the software can tells us the temperature required and the holding time in the furnace, and other information required.And also the same requirements for tempering process.
please i need it as soon as possible and thanks for all.
any other information in the field will be useful.

I take it you just need a database of some sort, rather than an actual simulation?
 
thanx brewong for your reply
I don't have a related database , so please if you have any links or sites write them down.
but I am still want a simulator to strengthening and support the senior project that we work on it.
and thanks for all
