Nonlinear thermophysics parameters are considered in ansys finite element software, so it can be used to compute temperature in the quenching. The temperature field in quenching process of 45 steel part is simulated by ansys finite element software, and the relationship between temperature of part and quenching time is obtained. Simulation result is correspondent with real process, this method has quick computing speed, and it can optimize quenching technology and select quenching bath. The most of all,this method can supply the temperature condition in computation of thermal stress and residual stress of quenching process.
