Abstract

An experimental and numerical study of the induction heat treatment applied to ISO C45 steel was carried out. Both normalised and annealed samples were considered. The process parameters were implemented in a numerical code (Sysweld 2000®) with an aim of predicting the thermal and metallurgical history of the material. The aim of this work was to create a thermo-metallurgical model of the induction heat treatment validated by experimental results. The experimental results (microstructure and micro-hardness profiles) were compared to the numerical values. A satisfactory agreement was found.
