摘要: 为定量化分析微合金化与淬火工艺、裂纹扩展的关联性,寻找修正钢轨淬火时所产生自回火现象的方法,通过对GGX-G重轨钢和自行开发设计的微合金元素重轨试验钢在8℃/s淬火冷速与8℃/s淬火冷速自回火后展开疲劳裂纹扩展试验,结果表明:未热处理态下,试验钢疲劳寿命优于GGX-G钢11万次;在经8℃/s冷速及8℃/s冷速自回火工艺后,由77万次均提升至107万次,自回火未影响试验钢的疲劳寿命,仍有良好的疲劳性能;淬火后试验钢在Ⅱ区均出现的慢速扩展区,且自回火后试验钢的△K范围更高,微合金化后的钢轨对自回火所造成的疲劳性能降低有着优良的抗性;淬火工艺后的试验钢均优于国标要求,且8℃/s淬火冷速与8℃/s淬火冷速自回火的疲劳断口未见差异,同样表明自回火对试验钢的综合疲劳性能影响甚微,有着良好的抗自回火能力。通过向钢轨中添加一定的微合金元素,不仅提升了淬火后钢轨的疲劳性能,同时也修正了自回火对钢轨性能的影响。

Abstract: In order to quantitative analysis of the correlation between microalloying with quenching process and crack growth, to find a way to correct the phenomenon of self-tempering during rail quenching, through the fatigue crack growth test of GGX-G heavy rail steel and self-developed and designed microalloyed element heavy rail experimental steel after quenching and cooling rate of 8℃/s and quenching and cooling rate of 8℃/s and self -tempering, the results show that under the condition of no heat treatment, the fatigue life of the experimental steel is better than that of GGX-G steel for 0.11 million times; after 8℃/s cold speed and 8℃/s cold speed self-tempering process, it has been increased from 0.77 million times to 1.07 million times, and self-tempering does not affect the fatigue life of the steel, and still has good fatigue performance; after quenching, there is a slow propagation zone in zone II of the experimental steel, and the △K range of the experimental steel is higher after self-tempering, the microalloyed rail has excellent resistance to the reduction of fatigue properties caused by self-tempering; the experimental steels after quenching process all meet the requirements of national standard, and the fatigue fracture surface of 8℃/s quenching cooling rate is similar to that of 8℃/s quenching cooling rate, which also indicates that self-tempering has little effect on fatigue properties of experimental steels, it has strong self-tempering resistance. The addition of microalloyed elements not only improves the fatigue performance of quenched rail, but also corrects the effect of self-tempering on rail performance.

Key words: alloying element, heavy rail steel, quenching process, self-tempering, crack propagation
