三次元切削温度分布の数値解析

抄録

The paper proposes an analytical method which enables to predict the temperature distribution in three dimensional metal cutting with single point tool, based only upon orthogonal cutting data. By using the three dimensional cutting model and the energy method presented in the previous paper, it is possible to obtain cutting force and chip formation such as chip flow direction, shear angle and chip shape for the tool of arbitrary shape. An assumption made on the frictional stress distribution on rake face together with the results through the energy method determines the strength of heat sources in the cutting model. The temperature distribution in workpiece, chip and tool is thus obtained through a numerical analysis of the equation involving heat conduction, transfer and generation. The predicted distribution of the temperature on rake face is found to be in good agreement with the distribution measured with a fine, insulated platinum wire embedded in the tool, of which end is exposed on the rake face and makes a thermo-couple with the chip produced.
