Abstract
The dynamic, static and metadynamic recrystallization behavior of austenitic stainless steel during hot rolling was analyzed. In this approach, each of those recrystallization behaviors is described by appropriate kinetics equations. The critical strain for dynamic recrystallization was determined so that a distinction could be made between static and metadynamic recrystallization; then the amounts of strain accumulation compared with the critical strain each pass. The effects of grain size on the fraction recrystallized and of the latter on the flow stress were evaluated for each type recrystallization behavior. In this way, the dependence of the mean flow stress (MFS) on temperature could be analyzed in terms of the extent and nature of the prior or concurrent recrystallization mechanisms. Finally, an example is given of an industrial process in which DRX/MDRX can play an important role. More grain refinement can be achieved by increasing the strain rate, decreasing the interruption time and lowering the temperature of deformation.
