Description/Abstract:
DATA ARE PRESENTED WHICH SHOW THAT QUENCHING NOTICEABLY AFFECT THE DIMENSIONAL CHANGES, HARDNESS, ORIENTATION, AND MACROSTRUCTURE OF ROLLED B HEAT-TREATED U. THE WARPING OF SLUGS DURING IN-PILE OPERATION MIGHT BE TRACED TO UNEVEN QUENCHING TECHNIQUES. COOLING CURVES FOR QUENCHING U SLUGS IN H20 SHOW A MARKED DIFFERENCE IN QUENCHING RATE WITH H20 TEMP
