Heat treatment process hardens the metal, after tempering In fact heat treatment is very similar to cooking!! Why you cook? to make sth you want! to make sth better.more delicious and .. .

you are doing this process to make the thing you want.for example you want Fe in perlite with special hardness and other mechanical features.so you do heat treatment in a way you want and in pattern that you make.very simple but you must expert!

Heat treatment is extensively used for controlling material properties.

􀁺 In Heat Treatment:

-The microstructures of materials are modified.

-The resulting phase transformation influences mechanical

properties like strength, ductility, toughness, hardness and wear

resistance.

􀁺 Purpose of Heat Treatment:

-is to increase service life of a product by increasing its strength or

hardness.

-prepare the material for improved manufacturability.

Is A nuclear reactor is really just a source of heat to change water into steam?

Usually, yes. There are other purposes for nuclear reactors, however. One of these is to produce synthetic isotopes, which are used for a variety of purposes. These include medical diagnosis, medical treatment, various technical purposes, and manufacture of nuclear bombs. Most reactors, however, just heat water to make steam.
