Thermal Analysis of the Milling Process

The aim of the current work was the analysis of temperatures in the milling process in order to understand causal and statistical relationships between process parameters and thermal state variables. The first step included fundamental empirical investigations in the form of orthogonal cuts in order to estimate the heat partitioning depending on the process parameters. Based on the empirical data from the orthogonal cuts temperature fields in the milling process were modelled analytically and validated.
