Abstract:       

In the first part of this  study, the mechanical properties necessary for the simulation of tempering of an AISI H13 (DIN 1.2344, X40CrMoV5-1) tool steel was derived using physically based precipitation simulations and microstructure-property relationships. For this purpose, the precipitation of fine carbides were simulated using a thermo-kinetic software which allows prediction of the evolution of precipitation/dissolution reactions and the particle sizes. Then, those microstructural findings were coupled with physically based microstructure-property models to predict the yield stress, flow curve and creep properties. The predicted mechanical properties were verified with corresponding experiments and a good agreement was found. In the second part, those properties were coupled with a Finite Element (FE) heat treatment simulation model in order to predict as-quenched  residual stresses and their relaxation during tempering. The results are validated with XRD residual stress measurements and show a good agreement with the experiments.
