2. Benchmark solution#

Analytical solutions do not exist. However, experimental results are available (hardness measurements).

2.1. Benchmark results#

Thermal calculation: Temperature at points T0, T9, T10 at times \(t=\mathrm{13s},\mathrm{20s},\mathrm{30s},\)

Metallurgical calculation: Hardness profiles at \(t=\mathrm{240s}\) for segments H5, H10, H10, H10, H15, H25, H35, H38, H45, H55, H55, H65, and H75.
