Abstract

Heat transfer coefficients of a quenchant are an important for evaluation of their potential use for the heat treatment of steel. Vegetable oils are of interest as potential replacements for petroleum oil-based quenchants. Therefore, it is of interest to determine the characteristic quenching performance, as characterized by heat transfer coefficients, of various vegetable oils of potential interest in the Brazilian heat treatment industry for use as replacements for petroleum quenching oils. This paper summarizes heat transfer coefficient characterization results obtained for five vegetable oils (cotton, canola, sunflower, corn and soybean) and two commercial petroleum oil-based quenchants (Microtemp 153B and Microtemp 157).
