MODELING OF THE THERMAL FIELD OF A WORKPIECE IN MILLING OF AUSTENITIC STEEL BY A FINGER-TYPE CUTTER
E. E. Fel'dshtein and V. L. Kaminski UDC 621.9 The authors report results of modeling thermal fields by the method of finite elements under conditions of milling of 00H17N14M2A austenitic steel by a finger-type cutter. A solution of the problem of unsteady nonlinear heat conduction has made it possible to find the temperature distribution in the surface layers of a workpiece as a function of the cutting rate and the position of the tip of the cutter edge.
