Background

This lab is a continuation of Case 1. The only difference is that the extrusion is assumed to be happening in non-isothermal and frictionless conditions. Use the same geometric and process data from Case 1. Dies are to be meshed for thermal analysis.

Thermal Data

The thermal properties of workpiece material (Ti-6Al-4V) are:

Thermal conductivity (k):   79.5 N/sec/°C

The thermal properties of the tool material (H13) are:

Thermal conductivity (k):  19 N/sec/°C
Heat capacity (C):            3.77 N/mm2/°C
Emissivity (e):                   0.0

Thermal conductivity (k)        19 N/sec/°C                 2.5413e-4 Btu/sec/in/°F
Heat Capacity (C)                 3.77 N/mm2/°C           0.0325 Btu/in3/°F
Emissivity (e)                         0.0
 

The heat transfer coefficient at the interface between the workpiece and the container and at the interface between the ram and the workpiece is 5 N/mm/°C/sec (1.699e-3 Btu/sec/in2/°F). The heat transfer coefficient between the objects and the environment is 0.007 N/mm/°C/sec (2.3785e-6 Btu/sec/in2/°F). Die initial temperatures are 315°C (599°F) and the environment temperature is 25°C (77°F).
