Prediction of Cutting Temperature at High Speed Steel in Orthogonal Turning based on Finite Element Method

2차원 선삭시 유한요소법에 의한 고속도강공구의 절삭온도 예측

Temperature distribution on the rake face and flank face in orthogonal turning with cutting tool of high speed steel is studied by using a finite element method and experiments. Experiments are carried out to verify the validity of the temperature measurement by using a thermoelectric couple junction imbedded in a cutting tool of high speed steel. Good agreement is obtained between the analytical results and the experimental ones for the temperature distributions on both the rake face and flank face of cutting tool with high speed steel. The analytical results show that the temperature on the top flank face of a tool is higher than it on the top rake face of the tool because of the difference of the friction velocity on each face of the tool.
