Induction Hardening And Microstructure Analysis Of Micro-Alloyed Steel Roller Shaft Of An Undercarriage, S. Gajanana, B. Suresh Kumar Reddy, T. Shivendra Lohit, K. Anil Kumar Reddy, Ankur Jain

Innovative Research Publications IRP India

The current work focuses on study of input parameters of induction hardening process of micro-alloyed steel roller shaft of an Undercarriage. Regression relation is generated for hardness using Response Surface Methodology (RSM) by using Design Expert Software as a tool for optimization. Further, the micro structure of selected shafts was analyzed.

The optimization of process parameters and catalyst compositions for the CO2 oxidative coupling of methane (CO2-OCM) reaction over CaO–MnO/CeO2 catalyst was developed using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The relationship between the responses, i.e. CH4 conversion, C2 hydrocarbons selectivity or yield, with four independent variables, i.e. CO2/CH4 ratio, reactor temperature, wt.% CaO and wt.% MnO in the catalyst, were presented as empirical mathematical models. The maximum C2 hydrocarbons selectivity and yields of 82.62% and 3.93%, respectively, were achieved by the individual-response optimization at the corresponding optimal process parameters and catalyst compositions. However, the CH4 conversion was a saddle function and did …
