풍력발전기에서 메인 샤프트는 로터허브와 증속기를 연결하는 중요 부품 중 하나이며 주로 자유단조공법을 통하여 제조된다. 하지만 고 MW급 이상의 메인샤프트는 중량을 감소시키기 위하여 중공형 설계가 이루어지며 주조공법을 이용하여 제조되고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 중공형 메인샤프트를 단조공법을 이용하여 생산할 수 있는 제조공정을 개발하는 것이다. 자유단조 공법의 공정설계 방법에 따라 중실형과 중공형 메인샤프트를 제조하기 위한 단조공정을 각각 설계하였다. 설계된 공정의 성형가능성을 확인하기 위하여 온도, 변형률 속도에 따른 유동응력을 열간압축실험을 통하여 구한 후 유한요소해석을 수행하였다. 유한요소해석을 통하여 단조업계에서 통상 행해지는 중실형 단조공법의 온도 및 변형률 등의 관리인자와 제안된 중공형단조공법의 인자를 비교하여 성형가능성을 예측하였다. 시제품 제작을 통하여 중공형 형상을 원소재회수율, 내부품질, 형상 및 치수 등에서 높은 생산성으로 제조가 가능함을 확인하였다.

In this work, closing behavior of the voids generated in a casting process was investigated for various parameters such as reductions in height void size and billet rotation during hot open die forging process. The reduction in height and path schedule including the number of paths and billet rotation were chosen as key process variables to express the change of geometrical void shape and void closing behavior. On the other hand, values of die overlapping and die width ratio were set to be constant. Extend of void closure was observed and evaluated using tensile test and microscope. Based on the experimental result, it is ensured that void closure do not occur at 15% and 30% reduction in height as well as one or two rotations of a billet. The useful datum obtained from this study could be utilized to establish an optimum path schedule in the open die forging process.

Scroll compressors are widely used in air conditioning systems and in automobiles due to their low pressure loss, minimal vibrations, and light-weight. Open-die forging with back pressure is used to forge the rotating scroll, and it requires special care since the forging die can be severely damaged at the fixed end of the spiral cavity similar to a fracture of a cantilever beam. To overcome the inevitable weakness of the forging die due to such damage, an innovative design is necessary. In this study, structural analysis using the finite element method was conducted to determine the reason for the fracture of the forging die. A novel design to avoid stress concentrations and vertical deflection, causing serious damage to the die, is suggested.

Force balance method is employed to predict forging information such as forging load, tool pressure and normal stress at the surface of tangential velocity discontinuity. The incipient stages of deformation for the plane strain forging of rectangular billets in V-shaped dies of different semi-angles are analysed. To construct an approximate model for the analysis of deformation by the force balance method in the incipient deformation stages, slip-line field is used. When the deformation mode by slip-line method is the same as that by force balance method, the slip-line method and the force balance method give identical solutions. The effects of die angle, coefficient of friction, billet geometries and deforma- tion characteristics are also investigated. In order to verify the validity of force balance analysis, the rigid-plastic finite element simulation for the various forgig parameters are performed and performed and find to be in good agreement.

High temperature deformation behavior of a $Ni_{30}Fe_{53}Co_{17}$ alloy, with its extraordinary low coefficient of thermal expansion less than $10{\times}10^{-6}K^{-1}$ at temperatures ranging from room temperature to 673K, was investigated by conducting a series of compression tests. From an empirical processing map, the appropriate working temperature-strain rate combination for optimum forming was deduced to be in the ~1373K, $10^{-2}s^{-1}$ region. This region has a relatively high power dissipation efficiency, greater than 0.36. Furthermore, open die forging of a 100mm diameter billets was performed to confirm the variation of thermo-physical properties in relation to microstructure. The coefficient of thermal expansion was found to increase considerably with increasing the open die forging temperature and decreasing the cooling rate, which in turn provides a drastic increase in the average grain size.

This paper presents methods for analyzing the extent of cylindrical-shaped void closure. In addition, a quantitative relationship between change in void fraction and height reduction ratio of a compressed specimen is proposed. The height reduction ratio, number of deformation steps and billet rotation were chosen as key process parameters influencing the void closing behavior, namely, the changes in void shape and size during hot open die forging of a large ingot. The extent of void closure was analyzed from microscopic observations and estimated from tensile test results. The tensile strengths of specimens with closed voids and those without were compared for various reduction ratios in height. The results confirmed that void closure occurs at reduction ratios greater than 30 %. The void closing behavior could be expressed as a hyperbolic tangent function of reduction ratio in height, number of paths, and billet rotation. The knowledge presented in this paper could be helpful for optimizing deformation paths in open die forging processes.

Large-scale low-alloy steel shafts, used in the manufacture of steam turbine, are produced by ingot making, forging and heat treatemtn processes. The numerical analysis techniques are introduced to analyze and design the working conditions in each process. The solidification of a steel ingot is studied through the finite element method. The open die press forging and quenching process are simulated by viscoplastic and elastic-plastic finite element method, respectively. Thus numerical analysis techniques are very useful tools to study favorable working conditions for better and more desirable product quality.

In the steel industry, there is a need to produce large forged parts for the automobile industries, the flight and shipping industries ad military industries. In the steel-industry application, a cogging technique for cast ingots is required, because the major parts are needed as one large body in order to obtain higher quality. Therefore, cogging process is the primary step in manufacturing of practically large open-die forging. In the cogging process, internal voids have to be eliminated as defects, The present work is concerned with the elimination of the internal voids in large ingots so as obtain sound products. In this study, hot compression tests were carried out to obtain the flow stress of cast microstructure at different temperature and strain rates. The FEM analysis are performed to investigate the overlap defect of cast ingots during cogging stage. The measure flow stress data were used to simulate the cogging process of cast ingot using the practical material properties. Also the analysis of void closure are performed by using the $DEFORM^{TM}$-3D. The calculated results of void closure behavior are compared with the measured results before and after cogging, which are scanned by the X-ray scanner. From this result, the criteria for deformation amounts effect on the void closure can be investigated by the comparison of practical experiment and numerical analysis.

An attempt has been made to investigate the mechanism of magnetic alignment in the magnets produced by upset forging the $Pr_{20}Fe_{74}B_{4}Cu_{2}$ cast bulk alloy. Upset forging of the cast alloy was carried out for 20 sec to an 80 % thickness reduction (strain rate : $4{$\times}10^{-2}s^{-1}$) in an open die configuration at varying temperatures in the range $600^{\circ}-900^{\circ}C$. It has been found that the upset forging process at temperatures above $800^{\circ}C$ can achieve a magnetic alignment to a great extent from copper-containing Pr-Fe- B-type cast ingot. The growth manner of the ferromagnetic $Pr_{2}Fe_{14}B$ matrix grain in Pr-Fe-B-type alloys was studied by examining the morphology change of the matrix grain in sintered body, and it was found that the matrix grains grew in anisotropic manner such that the grain grew more rapidly along the a- or b-axis than along the c-axis. This anisotropic grain growth led to the plate-like shape of the matrix grain. The magnetic alignment during the upset forging was attributed to grain boundary gliding of the plate-like grains, and the geometry of the grains in the cast ingot and the presence of a large amount of the praseodymium-rich grain boundary phase were thought to play a key role in the achievement of magnetic alignment.
