Abstract

This work studies the heat influence in cutting tools considering the variation of the coating thickness and the heat flux. K10 and diamond tools substrate with TiN and Al2O3 coatings were used. The numerical methodology utilizes the ANSYS® CFX software. Boundary conditions and constant thermo physical properties of the solids involved in the numerical analysis are known. To validate the proposed methodology an experiment is used. The TiN and Al2O3 coatings did not show satisfying results during a continuous cutting process. It showed a slight reduction in the heat flux for the 10 (µm) TiN and Al2O3 coatings.
