In the hot rolling processes, it always uses the laminar cooling system to control the cooling of plate and get the microstructure of different constitution. To investigate the effect of temperature variation due to the cooling pattern, rolling speed and thickness of plate on the microstructure evolution, a thermal-mechanical coupled FE model has been established. A set of constitutive equations of phase transformation is implemented into the commercial FE solver MARC through the user defined subroutine CRPLAW, and the temperature field is calculated by another user defined subroutine FILM. The effect of cooling pattern, rolling speed and thickness of plate on the temperature variation is numerically studied. Furthermore, the effect of temperature variation on the evolution of each phase transformation is investigated for various cooling pattern.
