For Materials Science & Engineering 4th Sem scheme and its subjects, do visit MSE 4th Sem 2021 regulation scheme. The detailed syllabus of heat treatment laboratory is as follows.
Course Objectives:
The main learning objective of this course is to prepare students for:
- Performing heat treatment operations on the plain carbon steels
 - Interpreting the effect of quenching media and tempering temperature and time on the hardness of the steels
 - Enhancing the case hardness of the low carbon steels by carburizing treatment
 - Measuring the case depth of the case-hardened steels
 - Identifying the suitable heat treatment for non-ferrous materials.
 
List of Experiments:
- Hardening and tempering of High carbon steels
 - Annealing and normalizing of hardened steels
 - Spheroidization annealing of high carbon steels
 - Effect of quenching media on hardening of steel
 - Effect of tempering temperature and time on tempering of steel
 - Effect of carbon percentage on the hardening of steel
 - Carburizing of low carbon steel
 - Case hardness depth measurements
 - Hardenability test – Jominy End Quench Test
 - Heat treatment of cast iron
 - Heat treatment of Stainless Steels and High speed steels
 - Heat treatment of non-ferrous alloys
 
Course Outcomes:
Upon completion of this course, the students will be able to:
- Perform various heat treatment processes on plain carbon steels and analyze the effect of the processes on steels.
 - Execute the case hardening effect on low carbon steel and to analyze the case depth measurements.
 - Interpret the effect of quenching media and the carbon percentage on the hardening of steel
 - Exemplify the effect of Jominy end quench test on the hardenability of steel.
 - Apply heat treatment on the various non-ferrous materials and analyze the effect of heat treatment on these materials.
