Overview
An essential revision of the original published nearly 20 years ago, this new edition, created with the urging of International Federation for Heat Treatment and Surface Engineering (IFHTSE), is the only complete reference on the critical topic of quenching, which is fundamental to the production of defect and distortion-free products. Leading international experts have contributed the most authoritative, exhaustive, and recent findings on quenching to this second edition. Topics include thermo-and fluid dynamic principles of heat transfer during cooling, wetting kinematics, and residual stresses after cooling, as well as computer modeling and prediction of microstructure transformation, hardness distribution, stress-strain, and distortion. Ideal for specialists in heat treatment practice, this book is also useful for higher education and numerous specialized courses and seminars worldwide.
