Abstract
Temperature is one of the most important parameters to be monitored within the most different metallurgical processes. The temperature of process monitoring is described by the cooling curves, obtained through the instrumentation of ingots with thermocouples of the most different types. The way in which metal material cooling occurs, describes indirectly the future mechanical properties. The process of cooling two different kinds of steel will be simulated in Matlab and C++ software, through the use of Method of Finite Differences to solve the General Equation of Heat Conduction, in transient regime,. The intend of this article is to verify the differences on the cooling curves of the steel in to superficial coordinates when the material was submitted to cooling by natural convection and forced convection for ingots of the steel SAE 8620 with rectangle section.
