Conclusions

  1. 1.

    Plastic deformation of austenite during HTTMT shifts the isothermal transformation curves to the left and reduces the hardenability of steel.

  2. 2.

    A method was proposed for plotting a calibration curve in order to determine the relationship between the hardenability of steel after HTTMT and after standard quenching.

  3. 3.

    A calibration curve was plotted and an empirical equation was obtained making it possible to determine the standard end-quench hardenability of alloy structural steels with a high carbon content (0.50–0.70% C) after HTTMT under the following conditions: TAust.=900–1000°, TDeform.=850–950°, ε=20–30%.
