The present invention provides a dynamic contact heat transfer simulation device for rolling heavy-load deformation zone. The device includes a control system, a data acquisition system, a pressure-adjustable fixed cold end, a rotating chuck, a temperature-adjustable heat-conducting rod and an speed-adjustable rotation hot end; the device utilizes the rotating chuck and the speed-adjustable rotating hot end to adjust the rotation speed in real time according to the actual rolling conditions, simulate the working conditions of the actual rolling heavy-load deformation zone, and accurately obtain the dynamic heat transfer coefficient of the rotating contact interface under variable load pressure conditions.

The invention relates to a method and a rolling device for rolling a rolled material. The rolled material is guided through a roll gap between two working rollers of a reversing roll stand, alternatingly in two opposing rolling directions. A lubricant for lubricating a contact zone is introduced into the contact zone in which the rolled material is in contact with the working rollers, and a coolant is applied to the rolled material and/or the working rollers. In a mixture with a carrier gas, the lubricant is sprayed onto the working rollers and/or onto the rolled material exclusively on an outlet side of a pass. The coolant is applied to the working rollers and/or to the rolled material exclusively on an inlet side of a pass.
