Metal cutting processes usually cause heat generation at the cutting zone
(around the workpiece-tool intersection). The heat generated during these
processes may cause different effects on both the workpiece and tool, this in
turn may affect the finished product and the general performance of the
machined piece. In this study, a review was done on various types of machining
conditions available, effects and analysis of heat generated on the workpiece and
tool, and the approaches adopted to reduce this heat at cutting zones.
It was discovered that heat generation causes two major types of wear on the
tool, crater and flank wear, resulting in the reduction of cutting tool life as well as
dimensional inaccuracy, surface damage and severe corrosion cases on the
workpiece. Various heat reduction methods and coolant application types were
as well studied and their merits and demerits were discussed.
In this paper a review has been done on the various parameters of heat
generation and its considerable effects on the life of the cutting tool and the
quality of the machined part.

Much of the heat generated due to increase in machine removal rate with increase
in machine removal rate decreases the time by increasing the speed of cutting and
this will increase heat in cutting surfaces, this means that cutting tools should bear
more temperature so that cutting tools cannot lose their strength and shape, and
can resist high temperatures. For this we use cutting fluid so that the cooling effect
can be done so that proper cooling takes place and heat release from the tools
smoothly. Distinct types of cutting fluids are available in the market with different
chemical compositions and cutting parameters. Analysis of heat and measurement is
the main intention and to find a suitable route to reduce and overcome from this we
had chosen this paper.
1.1 MOTIVATION:
Measurement of heat during the machining process is an important task. Excess
heat causes wear and tear at the tool tip and damages the workpiece, surface finish
and dimensional accuracy is also disturbed, much of the power consumed during
machining process and this power converted in heat loss so economics of the
materials also affected. Our main motivation is to analyze and measure the heat
generation by changing machining parameters and find a way to reduce heat that is
generated during the process. To analyze heat and reduce this heat we had chosen
this research work.
1.2 OBJECTIVE:
Our main objective is to measure excess heat generated during the machining
process and with the help of data we find a way to reduce this heat generation so
that machining cost, dimensional accuracy can be achieved. To increase overall
efficiency of machining by removing heat is our final motto.

3. High rigidity
High speed steel (HSS) is a tool steel with high hardness, high wear resistance and
high heat resistance. High-speed steel is often used in power-saw blades and drill
bits.
1. Water:
Water has high specific heat but is poor in lubrication. Also, it encourages rusting. It
is used as cooling agent during tool grinding.
3. Mineral Oils:
Mineral oils are used for heavier cutting operations because of their good
lubricating properties. They are commonly found in production machines where
high metal removal rates are employed. They are most suitable for steels but should
not be used on copper or its alloys since it has a corrosive effect.

REVIEWS LITERATURE: -
[3] N.A. Abukhshim, P.T. Mativenga, M.A. Sheikh's work is precisely directed towards
the heat generated during the orthogonal machining process. The emphasis is on the
comparability of test results, as well as, the relevance of temperature measurement
method to high speed cutting. New temperature measurement results obtained by a
thermal imaging camera in high speed cutting of high strength alloys are also
presented. Finally, the latest work on estimation of heat generation, heat partition
and temperature distribution in metal machining is reviewed. This includes an
exploration of the different simplifying assumptions related to the geometry of the
process components, material properties, boundary conditions and heat partition.
Set up ,methodology and result shown in chapter 4 and 5.
[4] Adeel H. Suhail, N. Ismail, S.V. Wong and N.A. Abdul Jalil done his research
in following way-
Approach: The focus of present experimental study is to optimize the cutting
parameters using two performance measures, workpiece surface temperature and
surface roughness. Optimal cutting parameters for each performance measure were
obtained employing Taguchi techniques. The orthogonal array, signal to noise ratio
and analysis of variance were employed to study the performance characteristics in
turning operation.
Results: The experimental results showed that the workpiece surface temperature
can be sensed and used effectively as an indicator to control the cutting
performance and improves the optimization process.
Conclusion: Thus, it is possible to increase machine utilization and decrease
production cost in an automated manufacturing environment.

RKP Singh Machining of titanium alloys generates enormous amounts of heat at the
chip-tool interface leading to poor machinability. The current research investigates
the effect of dry machining of Ti6Al4V on surface integrity of machined workpiece.
A change in subsurface deformation was assessed by varying cutting speed and feed
rate keeping the cut depth constant. Various output responses viz. cutting
temperature, surface finish, induced strain, deformed depth, microhardness, etc.
were discussed to evaluate the surface integrity. An optical microscopy, SEM and
EBSD analysis performed on the machined edge showed deformation induced
damage with microstructural restructuring which was correlated with chip
microstructure. At lower cutting parameters, work hardening phenomenon
however; at high cutting parameters thermal softening phenomenon becomes more
dominant. This was derived with increased surface roughness, reduction in
microhardness values beneath the machined surface and coarse microstructure
obtained at higher cutting parameters. A Chip microstructural analysis validates the
thermal softening and work hardening phenomenon where at high cutting speeds
and feed rate the shear band formation is accompanied with increased chip
segmentation frequency. However, at lower cutting parameters the reduction
segmentation frequency and more deformed grains near the shear band were
observed. The results that were obtained are: An increase in the cutting speed from
40 m/min to 140 m/min and an increase in the feed rate from 0.2 mm/rev to 0.5
mm/rev lead to higher cutting temperature at the cutting zone because of enhanced
contact between tool and workpiece and hence increased friction. At lower cutting
parameters, work hardening phenomenon however; at high cutting parameters
thermal softening phenomenon was found to be more dominant. This was derived
from increased surface roughness and reduction in microhardness values beneath
the machined surface along with coarse microstructure obtained at higher cutting
parameters. With the increase in level of cutting parameters from Experiment 1 to
Experiment 4, depth of deformed grains beneath the machined surface and the
corresponding strain in those deformed grain was found to be increased.
[6] Junzhan Hou, Ning Zhao, and Shaoli Zhu done investigation on Influence of
Cutting Speed on Flank Temperature during Face Milling of Magnesium Alloy
Find out that Chip ignition is one of the important problems in cutting magnesium
alloy due to cutting temperature rise, which is mainly caused by the increase of
cutting speed. In this article, we measured the mean flank temperature through
mounting two K-type thermocouples in workpiece of AM50A magnesium alloy.
Effect of cutting speed on the temperature rise of tool flank was analyzed. The
results show that the temperature first increases and then decreases as the cutting
speed increases. The chip ignition appears when the mean flank temperature rise is
about 3_C in cutting magnesium alloy at ambient temperature. However, the
ignition cannot be observed with further increase in temperature. The results can
reasonably be used to predict and avoid the occurrence of chip ignition. The analysis
and methodology are shown in tabular and graphical form in chapter 4 and 5.
[9] A.G.F. Alabi, Ph.D.; T.K. Ajiboye, Ph.D.; and H.D. Olusegun, Ph.D. his work is on
medium carbon steel subjected to various forms of heat treatment operations, by
assessing the temperature distribution during the machining process. The model of
oblique band heat source, moving in the direction of cutting in an infinite medium
with an appropriate image heat source, was used in this investigation. The model
analysis was carried out separately on the chip, the tool, and the work material, to
numerically determine the temperature distribution during the machining process
using Finite Element Method with nodal grids at the end he concluded that In this
study, Finite Element Modeling was utilized to simulate the temperature
distribution for orthogonal cutting of medium carbon steel subjected to various
form of heat treatment operations. Based on the materials’ properties obtained
from the stress/strain analysis, the annealed specimens gave a better machining
condition, within the selected machining variables as compared to tempered,
normalized, hardened, and the untreated. The modification of the grain structures
during the heat treatment processes were observed to be responsible for these
improved machining properties. The developed model gave a satisfactory result for
the simulation of the chip formation and the development of the temperature
distributions in the tool, chip and the workpiece. Very high and localized
temperatures were observed for all the samples at the tool-chip interface due to a
detailed friction model and the shearing action within the zone. The temperature
profile along the shear plane.
[10] Sushil D. Ghodam Temperature at the cutting point of the tool is a crucial
parameter in the control of the machining process. Due to advancement in the
machining processes, a special attention has been given on the life of a tool. To
achieve this, the best way is to apply the coating to the tool. In this study, coated
and uncoated tungsten carbide tools were used and temperature occurred during
machining were measured. Among the number of temperature measuring methods,
the tool-work thermocouple technique is used as it is easy to install and inexpensive
as compared to other methods. He pointed out that generation of high temperature
at the tool rake face takes place due to the enormous frictional forces caused at the
tool-chip interface. This generation of heat can be resisted by using a coated tool.
Reduction in the temperature of the tool improves the tool strength and also
improves the surface roughness of the work piece. From his experimental data, it is
found that as compared to uncoated tool the coating of the tool increases the life of
a tool for the same cutting velocity or for the same tool life, coated tool can be used
at higher cutting speed as compared to uncoated tool.
[11] Abdil Kus, Yahya Isik, M. Cemal Cakir, Salih Coşkun and Kadir Özdemir in their
research paper they estimated the tool-chip interface temperature by
simultaneously employing K- type thermocouple and Infrared pyrometer. As the
machining process is a bit complex thus the researchers insisted on the integration
of two measurement techniques to obtain consistent temperature data. The results
from the thermal analysis were compared through the ANSYS finite element
method. The research was based on dry machining processes using workpiece
material of AISI 4140 alloy steel 50 HRC. A PVD TiAlN-TiN-coated WNVG080404-
IC907 carbide insert was used during the turning process. They concluded that
cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut are the main parameters affecting the
cutting tool temperature. The cutting speed was found to be the most assessing
parameter in increasing the chip-tool interface temperature.
[12] Vamsi Krishna Mamidi and M. Anthony Xavior. This research paper mainly
focuses on different ways by which the tool temperature can be minimised in order
to increase tool life. They stated that using coated cutting tools is a bit expensive
and is only suitable for machining of some materials like titanium alloys, etc.
Another way of minimising the tool temperature is by applying cutting fluids in
between the machining operation, the cutting fluid acts as a lubricant and coolant
for the tool material and the workpiece. They concluded that the most important
thing is the selection of cutting fluid. The selection of cutting fluid should be such
that optimum and economical results are produced in the machining process.
[13] A.A. Sri Rama Krishna, Dr.P.Ravinder Reddy. This research paper deals with the
temperature measurement in machining new materials. The experiment consists of
turning operation on Aluminum 6160- based metal matrix composite with K-20
carbide cutting tool. The temperature measurement was done along the cutting tool
edge by placing various thermocouples at different cutting speeds and depth of cuts
while the feed rate was kept constant. They modeled a normally loaded particulate
metal matrix composite against a tungsten carbide cutting tool using FEA. Analytical
calculations of heat generation at chip-tool interface, frictional heat generation at
the tool flank and heat generation at the work tool interface were done and those
values were used as boundary conditions. The analysis of steady state heat transfer
was carried out and the temperature distribution at cutting edge, shear zone, and
interface regions has been reported.
[14] Mr. Lathiya Dharmeshkumar and Mr. Viswakarma Ajay. This Research paper
focuses on the determination of maximum temperature during the machining
process and its distribution along the rake surface and their influence on tool life
and quality of machined parts. This work focuses on the various analytical and
numerical analysis of temperature distribution along the rake surface of the tool. An
analytical thermal model was developed to determine the temperature during the
cutting process. The model was developed using MATLAB software.
[15] Özel, T., & Karpat, Y. This research paper mainly focuses on utilising the neural
network modelling in order to predict the surface roughness and tool flank wear
during the machining operation for different conditions in hard turning. Process
specific parameters are also captured using regression models. The neural networks
were trained using different sets of collected data for surface roughness. these
trained neural networks were used in order to determine surface roughness and
tool flank wear at other conditions. In comparison to regression models the
predictive neural networks were found more capable of better predictions. They
concluded that decrease in feed rate gave a better surface roughness but the tool
wear was taking place at a faster rate, whereas increasing the cutting speed resulted
in significant increase in tool wear development but resulted in better surface
roughness. Increasing the hardness resulted in better surface roughness but higher
tool wear. Overall they concluded that CBN inserts with honed edge geometry
performed better in both, better surface roughness and less tool wear.
[16] Chavoshi, S. Z., & Tajdari, M. This research paper is a study of the influence of
hardness and spindle speed on surface roughness in hard turning operation of AISI
4140 using CBN cutting tool. Multiple regression analysis based on analysis of
variance is done in order to find the influence of hardness and spindle speed.
Artificial neural networks and regression methods have been used for modelling of
surface roughness during hard turning. The results indicate that the reverse ANN
model can predict hardness for the train data and spindle speed for the test data
with a good accuracy but the predicted spindle speed for the train data and the
predicted hardness for the test data don’t have acceptable accuracy.
[17] B. Tulasi Rama Rao, Dr. K. Srinivas, Dr. P Ram Reddy, A. Raveendra, Dr. B. V.
R. Ravikumar. This paper deals with studying the optimal surface roughness in order
to get minimum surface roughness. The effect of various cutting parameters such as
cutting speed, depth of cut and feed rate were taken into consideration during this
research. They came to a conclusion that minimum surface roughness is obtained in
stainless steel and aluminum when the spindle speed is 1200 rpm and 800 rpm
respectively. Also, they concluded that as the surface roughness increases the
surface finish decreases.
[18] Marcio Bacci da Silva, James Wallbank. They stated that out of force, surface
roughness, chip dimensions, strain, tool wear, and temperature, the temperature is
the most difficult to measure. As the temperature is mainly dissipated at the tool-
chip interface thus the best method to measure temperature is by using the tool-
work thermocouple. It gives the trends of temperature with different cutting
parameters like cutting speed, feed rate, and depth of cut. They stated that the
application of cutting fluid to the system adds more difficulty to the problem of
measuring temperature.
[20] Sudesh Garg, Ravi Kumar Goyal, Ankit Chabra. They concluded that to acquire
mail surface finish of workpiece, the cutting speed should be as high as possible and
the feed rate should be as low as possible.increase in spindle speed and feed leads
to increase in MRR but the depth of hole has no effect on MRR. They developed a
MRR prediction mathematical model that shows that feed is the most significant
factor affecting the MRR in drilling operation.
Chapter 4: Methodology
[1] The research work was carried out at the metallurgy workshop. Two of the
cutting fluids (water and soluble oil) with the cutting tools (Tungsten carbide and
HSS) were both obtained from the workshop. The other cutting fluid (palm kernel
oil) and the workpiece (mild steel) were sourced locally. The experiment was carried
out on a center lathe machine. The workpiece was inserted into the 3-jaw chuck and
the jaws were tightened down until the jaw started to grip the workpiece. The
Tungsten Carbide cutting tool was tightly clamped in the tool holder and the angle
of the tool holder was adjusted so that the Tungsten Carbide tool was
approximately perpendicular to the side of the workpiece. The cutting speed was set
to 355 rpm and the laboratory attendant assisted in turning the carriage handwheel
counter clockwise to slowly move the carriage towards the headstock while I
continued to apply the cutting fluid with the help of a hand pump. The process was
repeated continuously until a certain diameter for the workpiece was reached. The
diameter of the workpiece was also determined using a vernier caliper. These steps
were repeated for subsequent cutting fluids while a set was cut dry and after the
results of the four samples had been derived using the Tungsten Carbide cutting
tool, the overall process was repeated using the HSS cutting tool. The cutting
temperatures were also taken immediately after each cutting and the values are
shown in the table.
value for each experiment was derived from the
[3] The ThermaCAM SC3000 was set up and the location of the analysis area was
chosen to be on the chip. The camera was positioned at a distance of 10 mm from
the tool workpiece interface in order to avoid any damage by the chips. The stored
images were recalled and analysed by using the ‘flying spot meters and the line’ in
the software, see program interface in Fig. 3. When placed on the image the
spotmeter gave the temperature value at a particular point and was used to predict
the position of the maximum temperature, while the line gave the maximum
temperature along the tool-chip interface. The line was positioned at a distance of
40 mm from the interface into the chip as shown in Fig. 4 .
Fig. 3. The ThermaCAM researcher main window.
[11] The Taguchi L18 (21 × 37) method was used for the determination of optimum
control factors. Low, medium and high cutting parameters were selected for the
experiments. In the selection of these parameters, the tool manufacturers’
recommendations and the machine tool capacity were taken into consideration.
There were 18 (3 × 3 × 2) combinations of the turning tests in total which were all
carried out to complete the experiments. The experimental conditions are shown in
Table below:
[13] A thermocouple was used to measure the temperatures at
three different points on the cutting tool. The thermocouple consisting of a sensor
was placed at the chip tool junction and it served as the hot junction. The
room temperature (i.e., the ambient temperature), was taken as the cold
junction. A filter circuit was designed and used to amplify the obtained
electromotive force values as these were too small to be detected by the
voltmeter (multimeter). The schematic diagram of thermocouple setup and
circuit diagram of filter circuit is shown in Figs

Learning from subjects namely Production technology and Heat transfer have
helped me a lot throughout this project as many formulae and theories were used
to calculate the measurement of heat and its calculations so that optimum heat
reduction and efficiency can be obtained.

When cutting fluid applied over the during machining process then it will remove
the heat on the interface of the tool. It will increase tool life and power
consumption; fluid also minimizes the friction coefficient because it acts as a
lubricating agent and also decreases the tool tear and wear during machining
process so that proper dimension and surface finish can be achieved properly.

RESULT-1. The heat generated could reduce the magnitude of the cutting forces
leading to reduction in power consumption and then improve the machinability of
the workpiece.
2. The heat generated during machine operations also affects the material surface
roughness significantly as there is a direct relationship between the two. High values
of surface roughness could result in an eventual failure of parts fabricated
3. Tool life reduces with an increase in heat generation during machine operations.
Coolants play a pivotal role in reducing the rate of heat generation in machining.
However, it might still pose a challenge if not well applied.
The tool chip interface temperature increases by upto 30% as the cutting speed is
increased, but the change in feed rate barely has any effect on the tool-chip
interface temperature. The influence of feed rate and cutting speed on tool-chip
interface temperature is shown in figure below:
FIG: The influence of feed rate and cutting speed on tool-chip interface temperature
It is possible to evaluate the heat distribution into the cutting tool by employing a
FEM model, reducing the available heat flux until the simulated temperature
matches with the experimentally measured temperature. Figure below shows the
temperature distribution of between 29.89 °C and 412.9 °C on the tool-chip
interface as well as the temperature distribution along the 12 mm path that starts
from the tool-chip interface.
