Effect of cutting temperature on job
On job:-
• Dimensional inaccuracy due to thermal
distortion & expansion-contraction during & after
machining
• Poor surface finish due to BUE and damage of
the cutting edge
• Surface damage due to oxidation, burning, rapid
corrosion.
• Induction of tensile residual stresses and
micro-cracks at surface.

Problem 1
Analytically estimate the average shear zone temp., θs for
plain turning of a mild steel rod by a carbide tool of geometry
–6o, -6o, 6o, 6o, 15o, 75o, 1.2 (mm) NRS at feed 0.12 mm/rev
and depth of cut 3.0 mm under dry condition when the
followings were noted: Pz= 1200 N, Frictional force, F = 500
N & a2= 0.6 mm
Assume : 80% of mechanical energy gets converted into
heat & 90% of the heat generated at the shear zone goes
into the chips, Mechanical equivalent of heat, J = 4.2 J/Cal
Vol. specific heat of mild steel,cv= 825 kCal/m3oC

Problem 2
From dimensional analysis,
Q1= ρv θI/Ec and Q2= (Va1/ ρv λ)2
where Q1= C1.Q20.25 and C1 is a constant, = 121.
Material-A is machined at 150m/min and feed of 0.2 mm/rev under orthogonal turning
with principal cutting edge angle,φ = 90o
Determine the interface temp. θi for this material?
Given:
Properties λ ρv σu Δ ζ

Material A 40 800 40 0.2 2.5
Solution of Problem 2
• Given the relations :
Q1= ρv θI/Ec
Q2= (VCa1/ ρv λ)2
and Q1= C1.Q20.25
• Combining those equations :
θI = C1Ec(Vca1/ρv λ )0.5 where
θI = average chip-tool interface temp.
C1= constant = 121
Ec= specific cutting energy of the work
material by a given tool in a given
environment
Vc= cutting velocity, m/min
a1= uncut chip thickness, = sosinφ mm
• Ec = (Pz.Vc/tsoVc) = (tsoτsfVc)/(tsoVc)
= τsf N/mm2
where, τs = dynamic yield shear strength of the
work material
and f = form factor
• For material A
τ = 0.74Δσu60.6Δ ; σUA= 40 kg/mm2
Δ = 0.2 and f = ζA — tanγ + 1 ≅ ζA + 1=2.5+1=3.5
