Residual Stress Reduction During Quenching of Wrought 7075 Aluminum Alloy

The finite difference method was used to calculate the variable heat transfer coefficient required to maximize mechanical properties of heat treated wrought 7075 aluminum alloy without causing residual stress. Quench simulation enabled determination of maximum surface heat flux bordering on inducin...
