A three dimensional nonlinear mathematical model for quenching process has been established and the numerical simulation on temperature field, microstructure and stress field has been realized. The alternative technique for the formation of high-strength materials has been developed on the basis of intensification of heat transfer at phase transformations. The technology for the achievement of maximum compressive residual stresses on the hard surface is introduced. It has been shown that there is an optimal depth of hard layer providing the maximum compression stresses on the surface. It has also been established that in the surface hard layer additional strengthening (superstrengthening) of the material is observed. The generalized formula for the determination of the time of reaching maximum compressive stresses on the surface has been proposed.展开更多
