Abstract :
Heating, holding and cooling stages in rail-head´s quenching process were all numerical simulated by FEA software ANSYS, the time-varying temperature fields at heating, holding stages and the structure after water-cooled were obtained, and the numerical simulation method to predict the quenching results was provided. It is significantly valuable for parameters´ selection in heavy rail´s technical operation.
