摘要/Abstract

摘要： 采用有限元方法,通过建立多物理场耦合模型研究了40Cr钢汽车前桥在不同浸淬方式下的温度场、应力演变和变形行为。结果表明,水平浸淬方式下前桥的温度分布更均匀,且前桥在长度方向的中心截面位置和总长度上的变形量分别比垂直浸淬方式降低约56.2%和48.9%,整体变形量更小。此外,不同浸淬方式对前桥的热应力、相变应力和等效应力影响较小,淬火后其热应力为-250~-500 MPa,相变应力为10~16 MPa,等效应力低于200 MPa,远小于40Cr钢的屈服强度,但水平浸淬方式下的等效应力分布更均匀。因此,水平浸淬方式下前桥在变形量和应力分布均匀性等方面表现更优。

Abstract: Temperature field, stress evolution and distortion behavior of 40Cr steel automobile front axle during quenching with different immersion quenching methods were studied through establishing multi-physical field coupling model by finite element method. The results show that the temperature distribution of the front axle quenched with horizontal immersion quenching method is more uniform, and the distortion at central section in length direction and total length of the front axle is about 56.2% and 48.9% lower than that of the vertical immersion method, respectively, and the overall distortion is smaller. Furthermore, the effect immersion quenching on the thermal stress, phase transformation stress and equivalent stress of the front axle is a little, as the thermal stress is -250--500 MPa, the phase transformation stress is 10-16 MPa, and the equivalent stress is less than 200 MPa, which is significantly lower than the yield strength of the 40Cr steel, however, the equivalent stress distribution of the horizontal immersion method is more uniform. In conclusion, the horizontal immersion quenching method performs better in terms of distortion and stress distribution uniformity.
