Chapter 13, Problem 13.38P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The minimum security of the quench for 4320 steel of 2 inch diameter and HRC 35 needs to be determined. Also, the quenching medium which produces least quench crack needs to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Quenching is the heat treatment process in which material is undergoes rapid cooling by using cooling media such as water, oil or air in order to obtain material properties. The material properties are hardness, ductility, strength, wear resistance, toughness, fracture, etc. Quenching is especially used to hardened steel by introducing martensite in the material.
