steel cost model
Input Costs. Key input costs are based on average 2023 world average costs. Ferrous scrap is priced at ~$350/tonne, steel slab at ~$500/t and hot rolled coil is assumed to sell at around $575/tonne [ex-works]. This allows for a small profit close to ~$20/tonne to be made in this specific example.
Analysis of Total Cost of Ownership Models for Mill Rolls …
With rolls accounting for typically 5–15% of the total costs of a hot strip or cold strip mill, the concept of total cost of ownership (TCO) has become very important. There is no single TCO model that can be used by all mills.

applications for special cast-rolling mills for narrow-gauge hot strip production. Normally, two rows of nozzles are used in one header. The row of nozzles directed to the roll gap is for the basic cooling and lubricating of the rolls. It can be adjusted from the centre outwards to match the strip width being rolled, and the flow rates used are
The calculation of rolling force
Yield strength. The main factor influencing the rolling force required to reduce the thickness of strip in a rolling mill is the yield strength of the material being rolled. The calculation of yield strength depends upon a wide range of factors. These are: composition; previous work done on the material; thermal history; speed of rolling ...
