1 Introduction

      1.1 The substantiation urgency of the problem

      The thermal processes at cutting largely determine operation of technological systems of a machining, rendering essential influencing on function ability of a cutting tool and quality of processing of parts. The control of thermal processes at cutting is one of reserves of growth of efficiency of exploitation of a cutting tool, providing increase of its reliability, productivity and quality of processing.

      The application is lubricating - refrigerating of technological mediums is the most effective way of control of thermal phenomena ensuring a decrease of temperature of cutting, raising the productivity and qualities of a machining.

      The idealized vehicle for research of heat convection characterized by a heat-transfer coefficient is now detailed enough [1]. However guidelines at the choice of a heat-transfer coefficient for members of technological systems practically miss. The available items of information on legitimacies of its change depending on conditions of processing do not contain the information on influencing a heat-transfer coefficient on temperature of cutting, that does not allow to operating thermal processes at cutting [2].

      Now for cooling of the tool the cutting compounds will predominantly be used on the basis of aqueous solutions having thermal properties which close to properties of water. At a machining the most widespread way of refrigerating liquid submission in a cutting zone is the watering by a freely dropping fluid jet [3]. The practical concern introduces research of influencing of conditions of refrigerating liquid submission on a heat-transfer coefficient and substantiation of capabilities of its directional change in given range.

      The purpose of the present activity is the complex research of interconnection of temperature of cutting with conditions of refrigerating liquid submission and heat-transfer coefficient and also mining on this base of fundamental theory of control of thermal processes at cutting.

      1.2 The formulation of the research tasks

      The idealized basis of control of cutting temperature in introduced activity is the analytical description of a thermal condition of the modular cutting tool with mechanical fastening of the cemented carbide alloy plates of depending on parameters of process of cutting and conditions of heat convection with environment.

      The theoretical investigations of the cutting tool thermal processes are used for decision of the following tasks:

  • analytical definition of a temperature field of a tool cutting edge and cutting temperature;

  • research of influencing of conditions of refrigerating liquid submission on a heat-transfer coefficient and substantiation of capabilities of its directional change in given range;

  • definition of nature and degree of influencing of a heat-transfer coefficient on cutting temperature.

           The experimental parameters (graphs 2) well enough coincide with idealized theoretical (graphs 1). Parameters for theoretical modes distinguished from experimental here are submitted on 10 % what are corroborated adequation theoretical models.


    4 Conclusions

          The developed technique of the analytical definition of a temperature field of a tool cutting edge and cutting temperature are permitting to regulate a given level of temperature at the expense of selection of rational conditions of processing and to determine necessity of usage is lubricating - refrigerating technological mediums.

          The developed technique is applicable for definition of temperature fields of various tools. Established on an example of the cutters the laws of influence of geometrical parameters on distribution of temperatures on a forward surface of an edge can be distributed on any tools. The features of various kinds of processing are taken at account of density of a thermal flow and length of contact of a shaving with a forward surface of an edge. On the basis of the received results the recommendations at the choice of a tool material and rational parameters of the tool are developed.

          For the most widespread ways of submission of the refrigerating liquid in a cutting zone - the free watering, pressure head spray and sputtering regulates main conditions of refrigerating liquid submission - consumption and speed ensuring any given heat-transfer coefficient.

          As a result of researches the interconnection of a factor of a decrease of cutting temperature with a heat-transfer coefficient is justified at different ways of refrigerating liquid submission in a cutting zone, that allows to supply any given level of temperature of cutting at the expense of selection of the conforming heat-transfer coefficient and conditions of refrigerating liquid submission.

          The designed technique utilized for the analysis of temperature of cutting at fair and thin turning processing by chisels equipped hard alloys. With allowance for of established temperature limitations, the method of a linear programming determines optimum regimes of fair and thin turning processing ensuring maximum productivity. Is justified that a decrease of temperature of cutting and removal of temperature limitation for the score the application of the refrigerating liquid with the regulated conditions of its submission in a cutting zone provides a raising the productivity of processing in 1,5 - 3 times.

          Thus as a result of the conducted complex researches the interconnection of cutting temperature with conditions of refrigerating liquid submission and heat-transfer coefficient are established on the basis of which one the fundamental theory of control of thermal processes are designed at cutting.
