Abstract
A quasi-finite element model for the determination of steady-state thermal fields in a tool-chip-workpiece system is presented. The approach accounts for all the three modes of heat transmission. Only a few temperature measurements, at certain discrete points in the continuum, are needed as boundary conditions. The method is employed to determine the temperature distribution in an orthogonal metal cutting operation. The results agree with experimental measurements under similar cutting conditions A comparison between the computed isotherms and the experimentally determined lines of equal crater wear of the cutting tool indicates an interdependency between the two.Keywords
