Effect of Cooling Rate on the As-Cast Microstructure of a High Strength Steel Produced in a Large Size Ingot
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper presents an experimental study on the influence of solidification cooling rate on the evolutions of microstructural morphologies of a high strength low alloy steel. To this end, solidification samples (cylindrical form with 10 mm diameter and 120 mm length) were prepared from 30 cm below the ingot/hot-top interface, at the center, of a 40 MT (Metric Ton) ingot. Solidification experiments were carried out by using Gleeble ® 3800 thermo-mechanical simulator. Two solidification cooling rates of 1 and 50°C/s were chosen. For microstructural characterization, samples were prepared by mounting, polishing and etching with 3% Nital solution. Also, an optical microscope was employed for microstructural observations. The obtained results showed that for 1°C/s, the microstructure is composed with dendrites and grains. Here, the grain morphology is the dominant one. In the case of 50°C/s, the dendrites were localized at the sample surface and the grains were present more into the depth of the sample. Moreover, the increase of solidification cooling rate results in finer dendrites. The results are discussed in the framework of solidification mechanisms.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
