INNOVATION
“It’s what’s under the surface that counts...” This saying is used all too often in life in various circumstances. While it is important in the short run to have a good outward appearance to encourage the Àrst conversation, Àrst test drive or Àrst visit, it is more important in the long term to have substance. Surface Combustion is proud to have both. In addition to the countless hours that Surface personnel participates in industry associations, organizations and events, serving on boards and committees, writing articles, attending trade shows and contributing to the growth and development of the heat treating industry,
we also manufacture an excellent line of products. These products are created and/or improved using our wealth of knowledge and experience that can only be gained by nearly 100 years in the business. Tradition, integrity, technology, innovation, and dependability are our “beneath the surface” traits that are important to long term success. So, remember us for your next thermal processing equipment needs, and remember that... ...“It’s what’s under SURFACE® that counts”.

Federal Triangle Patent Reform: Lies and Real Needs Intellectual-property (IP) protection is a main federal responsibility defined by the Constitution. However, a new bill recently passed by the Judiciary Committee encourages those with means to “game the system.” In other words, it’s a work order for lawyers.

The Heat Treat Doctor™ Toughness Revisited A material may be strong and tough, exhibiting high strains if it ruptures under high loads. Generally speaking, strength indicates how much load/stress the material can sustain, while toughness indicates how much energy a material can absorb before rupturing.

Quench Simulator Furnaces dedicated to heat treatment of tools, including hot-work steel tools, are presently equipped with a simulator that enables designing the cooling process for large parts and/or furnace loads and comparing actual results with the simulation. Thus, the heat-treatment process for expensive tools can be optimized to produce the highest-quality parts. Figure 7 shows the window of the G-Quench Pro simulator.

The process simulation predicts the carburizing-gas mix and presents the process result in the form of carbon profile and hardness depth profile. The simulation suggests the process based on a depth requirement. The system takes into consideration

the steel grade, shape and geometry of treated parts, charge surface size, surface carbon concentration, carbon depth requirement, carburizing temperature, boost and diffusion sequence. Also taken into consideration is the pre-cooling phase before hardening, the cooling-gas type and pressure, and the size of the furnace. Simulation program SimVaC ® is a
necessary support for the technological functions of the furnace, predicting the results of the carburizing and quenching processes. The high accuracy of the simulation and its consistency with the real process results limits or even eliminates the need for conducting research and decidedly accelerates the process optimization.

amounts to 13.6 μm in comparison to 16.7 μm in LPC process alone. As expected, the grain size outside the carburized layer in the core is larger for a higher temperature and amounts to 19.2 μm for PreNitLPC® at 1000˚C and 17.2 μm for vacuum carburizing at 920˚C. Further testing of mechanical properties obtained in PreNitLPC® high-temperature processes proved them to not be worse than those obtained in traditional temperature processes. Tests of comparative hardness, fatigue resistance, pitting and impact resistance were conducted for this purpose. HPGQ with Vacuum Nitriding Tool steels hardened and tempered in HPGQ vacuum furnaces can be nitrided utilizing the FineLPN technology. Nitriding takes place during the second and third tempering cycles. Nitriding, illus1000 Microhardness, HV O.1

temperature of 925˚C as a reference, the process time can be reduced by half at 980˚C. It is possible to further decrease the process time three, four and five times at temperatures of 1000˚, 1020˚ and 1040˚C, respectively. In order to obtain the effective case depth of 2 mm for 16MnCr5 steel, the process will last 22 hours at the temperature of 925˚C, whereas it will take less than 5 hours at 1040˚C. Thanks to the use of the PreNitLPC® method, it is possible to carburize at the temperatures of 1000˚C and higher without changing the austenitic grain size. Figure 10 illustrates a comparison of the microstructure of a 0.6-mm carburized layer obtained in a vacuum furnace at the temperatures of 920˚C and with the use of the PreNitLPC® method at 1000˚C. As can be observed, in spite of the high temperature, the grain size in the layer is smaller after the PreNitLPC® process and Microhardness, HV O.1

PreNit® Technology The next stage in the FineCarb® vacuumcarburizing development is the carburizing technology supported by nitriding – PreNitLPC®. This technology involves feeding ammonia in the initial phase of the process – at the stage of heating for carburizing (Fig. 9). Nitrogen being introduced into the surface layer supports the carburizing process by accelerating carbon diffusion, reducing the tendency to create carbides and, most importantly, considerably limiting austenitic grain growth. These advantages make it possible to reduce the process time by increasing the carburizing temperature. At the same time, the achieved layer has the appropriate microstructure and mechanical properties, which are not inferior in comparison to those obtained in traditional processes at a lower temperature. Using traditional carburizing at the

trated in Fig. 11, is similar to vacuum carburizing, where, with the appropriate process segmentation (NH3 dosing, vacuum level and diffusion times), the structure and layer thickness for typical tool steels can be programmed (Fig. 12). The oxygen-free atmosphere of hardening and tempering processes preceding nitriding makes it possible to increase the nitriding uniformity in comparison to other methods of layer activation before nitriding. Figures 13, 14 and 15 illustrate hardness distribution and typical structures achieved for the most commonly used tool steels (M2, H11 and D2). Summary A new generation of single-chamber vacuum furnaces is the result of ongoing vacuum-technology development at SECO/WARWICK S.A. The furnaces make use of a variety of technologies, and available process software makes it easy to operate them with precision. A single HPGQ vacuum furnace can be utilized for multiple technologies, making it very versatile. In the heat treatment of tools, it is possible to combine hardening and tempering with nitriding. These furnaces are prepared for quick assembly and start-up, and thanks to applied control solutions they result in significant energy savings. IH References: 1.

Carbon Controlling with O2-Probe and L-Probe
D. Mikulovic´ – MESA Electronic GmbH; Leitenstr., Geretsried, GERMANY MANY Gas carburizing still plays an important role in heat treatment. Temperature ature and carbon potential (C-potential) of the atmosphere are the essential process-control ss-control parameters. There is no still direct measurement method for C-potential that hat can be used for online process control. The measurement of the oxygen partial pressure re in the furnace atmosphere is the most-used indirect method for the control of the C-potential. l Different types of oxygen probes exist. In this article, the essential differences in construction will be discussed as well as their advantages and disadvantages.
G
a carburizing is a well-unas derstood process.[1] The most d important parameter aside i from temperature is the carf bon potential (C-potential). The C-potenb l tial of a furnace atmosphere is defined as the carbon content (expressed in weight percent) of unalloyed austenite that is in equilibrium with the corresponding atmosphere. For example, an atmosphere with 0.7% C-potential would be in equilibrium with an austenite with 0.7% C. An austenite with more than 0.7% C would be decarburized to 0.7% C, whereas an austenite with lower C content would be carburized up to this value. It should also be mentioned that the C-potential of a certain atmosphere depends on temperature. In order to get a definite carburization depth in the parts, C-potential of the furnace atmosphere has to be measured and controlled during the heat-treatment process.

Indirect Determination of C-Potential Basically, the C-potential can be determined directly or indirectly. The directmeasurement methods are not suitable for a continuous measurement of C-potential and a control based on this measurement. However, the direct methods are used to check and adjust the indirect measurement methods if necessary. The following equations are the basis for the indirect determination of the C-potential:
activity depends on temperature and content of carbon that is dissolved in austenite. For a given temperature, each Cpotential equates to a certain value of the activity ac(%C,T). The reactions 1-3 can be linked to the activity via the following equations: (4)
(5) C + 0.5O2 C CO C + CO2 C 2CO C + H2O C CO + H2
(1) (2) (3)
These reactions take place in the furnace atmosphere as well as on the surface of the workpieces. It follows from these reactions that the CO gives off the carbon and O2, CO2 and H2O absorbs it. If the C-potential of the atmosphere is higher than the carbon content on the surface of the workpieces, CO transfers the carbon to the workpieces, whereas O2, CO2 and H2O remove the carbon from the furnace atmosphere. If the C-potential is lower than the carbon content on the surface of the workpieces, CO transfers the carbon to the atmosphere whereas O2, CO2 and H2O remove the carbon from the workpieces. In both cases, these reactions cause an equalization of the carbon content on the surface of the workpieces and the Cpotential of the atmosphere. For the calculation of the C-potential, the activity also becomes important. The
(6) The equilibrium constants of equations 1-3 – KO2, KCO2 and KH2O – are functions of temperature. These functions are well known in literature. Therefore, in order to calculate the C-potential, it is enough to measure the temperature and the partial pressures appearing in one of the equations 4-6. In certain atmospheres (e.g., endogas or mixtures of nitrogen and methanol), the partial pressures p(O2), p(H2) are much higher than the partial pressures p(O2), p(CO2) p(H2O). When the C-potential is changing, the partial pressures p(CO) and p(H2) vary by percentage only a little compared with the percentage variation of p(O2), p(CO2) and p(H2O). This is the reason why for the calculation and control of the C-potential, in most cases, the partial pressures p(CO) and p(H2) are assumed to be constant and only the partial IndustrialHeating.com - March 2011 51

pressure or volume fraction of O2, CO2, or H2O is measured. Continuous measurement is essential for the control of a process. The marketavailable dew-point sensors, which could be used for continuous determination of the partial pressure of H2O, are not robust enough for measurements in carburizing atmospheres. The measurement of CO2 is done continuously with infrared sensors and is frequently used for comparison. The CO2 measurement has little correlation with the O2 measurement. In addition, the CO2 sensor has higher maintenance requirements because of the drift of zero point. Therefore, the zero point has to be corrected daily with nitrogen if the CO2 measurement is used for C-potential control. These are the main reasons why the measurement of oxygen partial pressure with the oxygen probe (O2-probe) has become widely accepted for the control of C-potential. O2-Probe Construction & Functionality Figure 1 shows the construction of the O2probe. The measuring cell of an O2-probe consists of a one-sided, closed-probe ceramic. The material is zirconium dioxide dotted with yttrium trioxide, for example. These intentionally implemented lattice defects enable the needed oxygen-ion conductivity. Furthermore, these defects also stabilize the ceramic against thermal and mechanical stress. The ceramic is connected with platinum inside and outside. These are the electrodes of the measuring cell. On the inside of the probe, reference 52 March 2011 - IndustrialHeating.com
Fig. 3. Lamda (L) probe
gas is provided, mostly air with the known 20.9% O2. The outside is exposed to the furnace atmosphere. The O2-probe is applicable for in-furnace measurements only at temperatures above 700°C (1292˚F) since the oxygen ions’ conductivity is temperature-dependent. At the inside platinum electrode, oxygen is reduced to oxygen ions. These ions move via ceramic defects to the outer electrode in order to compensate the low oxygen concentration there. The accumulation of electric charges results in a voltage (Nernst equation) (7) that can be measured between the electrodes. The voltage increases when the atmosphere oxygen content decreases. In the process of carburizing, this implies the following: Higher voltage corresponds to a higher C-potential, and conversely lower voltage corresponds to a lower C-potential. There are primarily three different models of O2-probes on the market (Fig. 2): • The first model has a one-sided closed zirconia element that is glued or welded to a ceramic pipe made from alumina. Apart from that, the probe works as described: reference air inside, furnace gas outside, oxygen ions move through the ceramic. • The second model has a zirconia ball. • The third model has a continuous, closed and dense zirconia pipe. Probes with a zirconia element or ball
are less costly than the probes with continuous zirconia pipe, but these probes have lower leak tightness. The difference of the expansion coefficients of the two different ceramics causes fine hairline cracks to occur at the contact point of the two ceramics. Through these cracks, the furnace atmosphere leaks into the inside of the probe ceramics and modifies the reference air. The probe voltage decreases, and the calculated C-potential is lower than the actual value in the furnace. This error can be minimized by increasing the flow rate of the reference air. For calculation of the C-potential via O2 measurement and the equation of chemical equilibrium, the temperature is important for two reasons: • Firstly, the temperature is needed for the determination of the O2 content (eq. 7). • Secondly, the temperature is needed to determine the equilibrium condition from which the C-potential is calculated (eq. 4). Therefore, more often than not the furnace-atmosphere probe temperature is measured with a thermocouple that is fitted inside the probe ceramic. It is recommended to use oxygen probes with thermocouples of type S or with no thermocouple. In the latter case, a separate furnace thermocouple, which is mounted close to the probe, has to be used for the calculation of the C-potential. There are also low-cost probes – mainly with zirconia element or ball – equipped with type-K thermocouples. Because of the

ceramic design, it is possible to use lightgauge thermocouples. Through ceramic leakages, furnace atmosphere reaches the thermocouple. This gives rise to lower accuracy and a reduced lifetime. For this reason, probes with K-type thermocouples are only conditionally recommendable. Uncertainty of Measurement of the O2-Probe in the Field When handling the O2-probe in the field, the following points should receive attention: • The O2-probe is exposed to mechanical and thermal stress. Since the ceramic is not breakproof, the probe is potentially at risk. In particular, the unbalance of circulating fans can decrease the probe lifetime. Therefore, mounting of the probe near such equipment should be avoided. Furthermore, due to thermal sensitivity, it is time consuming to exchange the O2-probe under process conditions. • Probe leakages increase over the course of time. The increase of the porous area and hairline cracks in the ceramic result in a growing flow rate of reference air. Aside from the already-described effect on the probe voltage, the temperature of the O2-probe thermocouple is also affected. • Materials such as washing agents, oils and covering paste evaporate in the furnace and precipitate on the outer platinum electrode. This yields a falsified measurement and a reduced probe lifetime. To remove residues from the

probe element, an extended purging of the probe is necessary. One of the most known problems is sooting of the outer electrode, particularly when the process is controlled near to the soot limit. The sooting of the electrode yields a falsified measurement too. In this case, the only help is a cyclic purging with air. Keep in mind that the valve for air purging has to be mounted near the probe. Long pipes produce long dwell time after the purging. The valve must close well and should not jam. • At temperatures above 1100°C (2012˚F), the electron conduction in the zirconia is increasing and cannot be neglected anymore.[2][3] Decarburizing processes at high temperatures (e.g., decarburizing of cast iron) can be controlled with the oxygen probe if, and only if, the electron conduction effect is compensated. • If chromium-nickel steels are used as a protection tube, microscopic analysis indicates that, near the zirconia tip, the chromium in the tube dissolves away in the furnace. Soot particles and oxygen cling to the porous surface. The soot on the probe causes faulty measurements. The oxygen induces increased probe reaction time and long relaxation time after probe purging. L-Probe Construction & Functionality Due to the aforementioned problems, attempts were made to place a smaller oxygen-measurement cell outside the furnace. The use of oxygen-conductive solid electrolytes (e.g., zirconia ceramic) for combus-
tion control in the automotive industry has led to miniaturized oxygen probes, namely the Lambda probe (L-probe). As a result of mass production, a robust and economically priced sensor is available today (Fig. 3). The functionality of the L-probe and O2-probe is basically the same. However, there is an essential difference in construction and measuring setup. The form of the L-probe is similar to the O2-probe – one-sided closed pipe (Fig. 4). The ceramic is also the same. The probe ceramic surface is covered with a microporous platinum layer inside and outside. These two platinum layers are the electrodes of the measuring cell. The outside platinum layer is protected with a highly porous ceramic layer. In order to enable the movement of oxygen ions through the ceramic, a nickel heating element heats the ceramic inside the L-probe. A rapid heating of the probe is possible because of the PTCcharacteristic. IH Unfortunately, we could not fit all of this article into print.

Maintenance for Cooling Towers: Protecting Process-Cooling Systems from Costly “Fatigue” Tom Ryder – Delta Cooling Towers; Rockaway, N.J. If your cooling tower and related equipment are not in good physical shape, there could be a terrible price to pay in loss of process efficiency, damage to downstream equipment and loss of production.
T
h loss of cooling capability he from industrial cooling towers f that are not running at optit mum can result in a number m of serious consequential “syso temic” problems, including paralyzing and pricey damage such as excessive downtime, destruction of equipment and loss of product due to quality issues. Like your car, when you run a cooling tower in the “red,” you are going to see consequential damage. When you continuously run a car in the red, you are exposing yourself to a series of heat-related problems, including damaged gaskets and seals, premature cylinder wear, warped cylinder heads and even catastrophic engine damage. When a cooling tower is suffering from a lack of preventive maintenance, you could experience overheated equipment, increase in scrap material, refrigeration losses, heat-exchanger inefficiencies and other severe operational consequences. Cooling towers play a critical role in cooling process equipment used in pulp 54 March 2011 - IndustrialHeating.com
and paper production; the manufacture of metals, textiles and plastics; petrochemical processing; the processing and storage of food; beverage and pharmaceutical products; and many HVAC systems. If cooling towers are not kept in good shape and receiving preventive maintenance, they can become “fatigued,” which can in turn put a strain on system equipment and downstream processes. Unless the cooling tower is well maintained, the water it provides devices such as heat exchangers, production machinery and HVAC systems will be less able to draw off heat. For example, the “cold side” of a heat exchanger will receive water that is not as cool as optimum. Therefore, the heat exchanger will be less able to draw off heat from process fluids. If the cooling-tower shell is in bad shape or requires too much repetitive maintenance, then perhaps the system should be replaced with one of today’s more advanced models, such as seamless plastic cooling towers.
A High Price to Pay The cost of overlooking the maintenance of a cooling tower can be heavy, almost regardless of application. In the pulp and paper industry, for example, a process interruption for unscheduled service can run into hundreds of thousands of dollars. The same thing can occur in chemical processing. If you don’t sufficiently cool that equipment, forget the normal fears about downtime. You’re going to be repairing and replacing hardware, so you will have an impact that is both loss of production and loss of capital equipment. The impact can be amplified in applications where there are cooling towers operating with sometimes dozens of devices daisy-chained off them. Injection Molding In the injection-molding industry, you have to be concerned about downtime plus the loss of machinery that is vital to your application. If the cooling tower is not cooling enough and causes a series
of injection-molding machines to overheat, the very expensive molding equipment is going to produce scrap parts or will simply lock up like a seized engine. It could take weeks to replace the equipment, if necessary, and certainly days to clean it up – if no catastrophic damage has occurred. Both Routine and Preventive Just as with automobiles, routine and preventive maintenance of cooling towers is necessary to avoid costly repairs. Fill material or wet decking should be serviced or replaced in cooling towers. Fouled fill material will not get sufficient air volume contacting the system’s water to dissipate heat efficiently. Therefore, it will make the fan(s) and motors work harder, adding significantly to energy costs. Worse yet, it can make them unable to achieve required cooling temperatures. If you are running water through fouled cooling-tower wet decking, you will not get the necessary dissipation of heat, and the water getting down to the tower sump will not be cold enough for the processing equipment. Ventilation louvers should be washed down, as well as the wet decking, which facilitates the cooling evaporation process. Drift eliminators should be checked to prevent unnecessary water loss. Plus, any repairs such as patching, welding or cleaning of cooling-tower sheeting should be done as required. Cooling towers cool water through heat transfer and evaporation. With a loss of 1% water for every 10 degrees of cooling required, the evaporation factor can be very significant – 20 or 30 gallons per minute is not uncommon for small towers. When evaporation occurs, scale is left behind, which can interfere with cooling-tower efficiency and require expensive maintenance or acid cleaning. Because plastic cooling towers are impervious to residual salts, the tower cannot be damaged, and fill material can be cleaned up by most aggressive descalers. Metal towers, on the other hand, can be irreparably harmed by descalers, causing a premature whole-tower rebuild or replacement. Replace vs. Repair Sometimes preventive maintenance is not enough, or perhaps has been overlooked for too long, making the replacement of a cooling tower the most practical solution. To use the automobile example, when are you spending more than a couple of thousand dollars a year in maintaining your car, you may weigh that expense against spending a couple of thousand dollars a year in payments for a brand-new car. The same consideration may apply to cooling towers, particularly the old, metal-clad designs that require and are very sensitive to frequent chemical treatments, patching and welding. Delta Cooling Towers, which are based on a seamless engineered-polyethylene shell, offer a much lower cost of ownership because overall maintenance is minimal, and the tower shell doesn’t require preventive maintenance nor does it ever have to be relined or repaired. But even a cooling tower as durable as these seamless engineered plastic models should still receive some inspection and
Cooling towers play a critical role in many and various industries, including the manufacture of metals, plastics and textiles.
maintenance. You should clean your PVC fill or packing material, you should make sure that your louvers are clean for optimum air flow and minimized need of the electric fan, and you should ensure that drift eliminators are operational. That will go a long way toward avoiding cooling tower “fatigue” for many years to come.
