Based on hot rolling production line of strip steel, the off-line in-house software, termed as ROLLAN (Rolling Analysis), is developed. The code is mainly used to predict the evolution of temperature, rolling force, fraction and grain size of recrystallization, fraction and grain size of phase transformation and final mechanical properties. Almost all the processing parameters affecting microstructure and mechanical properties in the schedule from reheating to the coiling process are considered in detail. Self-learning coefficient is adopted to adjust the deviation between predicted and measured temperatures, such as roughing exit temperature (RT2), finishing exit temperature (FT7) and coiling temperature (CT). Due to the application of low-speed-threading, increasing-speed-rolling and decreasing-speed-delivery process during finishing rolling and different cooling condition, after coiling the thermal-mechanical history of different position, along strip longitudinal direction is different resulting in inhomogeneous mechanical properties. So the segments are divided along longitudinal direction to identify the variation of microstructure and mechanical properties. An example of plain carbon strip steel Q235 with various thickness is used to compare the calculated mechanical properties with measured ones. For the specific grade of Q235 , the maximum deviation of tensile strength is less than 10.3 MPa, the yield strength is less than 13.2 MPa, and elongation is less than 1.99%. Further work will focus on the on-line application and consider the effect of macrosegregation and sulfur content of cast slab.

A model based on Avrami equation and Scheil’s additivity rule was proposed to simulate the phase transformation in plain carbon steels during continuous cooling in hot strip mill. In this model, a wide range of composition, cooling rate, primary austenite grain size and retained strain has been taken into account. It can be used to calculate the phase fraction transformed at different temperatures during continuous cooling. The phase equilibrium and transformation starting temperature can be determined by using Thermo-Calc and DICTRA. The simulated results containing the transformation at starting and finishing temperatures, Ae1 ,Ae3 and the maximum volume fraction for Q235B, were obtained. The calculated phase volume fractions are in good agreement with the experimental results.
