Theoretical study of laminar plasma quenching of rail steel using the fluid-solid-thermal coupling method

Kai Wang et al.

Summary: This paper establishes a theoretical analysis model to study the influence of laminar plasma quenching (LPQ) on the hardened layer of U75V rails. The results show that the distribution of the hardened layer significantly affects residual stress, and the width-depth ratio of the hardened layer first decreases and then increases as the plasma flow rate increases. This research is of great significance for understanding the mechanism of rail plasma quenching and the application of fluid-solid-thermal coupled methods.

Comparison on the microstructure, bending properties and tribological behaviors of rail materials treated by laser dispersed quenching and induction assisted laser dispersed quenching

Li Meng et al.

Summary: Laser dispersed quenching technology (LDQ) can improve the wear resistance of rails, but may cause severe spalling at quenched zones. Induction assisted laser dispersed quenching technology (IA-LDQ) can address this issue by adjusting the microstructure and mechanical properties of the quenched zones, enhancing the bending resistance and wear performance of rail materials.

Numerical investigation of crack initiation on rail surfaces considering laminar plasma quenching technology

Yuan Gao et al.

Summary: By developing an explicit finite element model considering selective quenching under real conditions and integrating it with a fatigue model, the crack initiation life of a corrugated rail surface after quenching was studied. Predictions were made on the most susceptible position and number of cycles for crack initiation through simulations and verification with in-service quenching rails.

The rolling-sliding wear behavior and damage mechanism of the rail steel treated by plasma selective quenching

Bin Zhang et al.

Summary: Plasma selective quenching (PSQ) treatment can improve the wear resistance of the rail surface layer, but long-term use may lead to cracks and damage on one side of the PSQ spots, limiting its large-scale application. Under rolling-sliding contact conditions, the hardness of PSQ-treated rail rollers increases, improving their wear resistance. The damage pattern of PSQ spots is due to strain differences between the hardened entry side of the PSQ spot and the soft substrate.

Investigation on wear and damage characteristics of high-speed rail steel with plasma selective quenching

Jingmang Xu et al.

Summary: Plasma selective quenching is a technology that can significantly improve the wear resistance of rail material and reduce rail wear, affecting the damage characteristics of rail materials. The damage characters of quenched specimens can be classified into three stages: quenched zone wear, quenched zone wear and spall pits, substrate wear.

Laminar plasma jet surface hardening of P20 mold steel: Analysis on the wear and corrosion behaviors

Da Guo et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that LPJ surface hardening improved the wear and corrosion behaviors of P20 mold steel by reducing friction coefficient and wear rate, and changing wear mechanism. The formation of lath-martensite structure after LPJ treatment mainly contributed to the improvement of wear resistance, while the homogeneously distributed Cr element decreased the corrosion rate.
