Finite Element Analysis of the Temperature Field and Strain Field of Coating Rod in Friction Surfacing

Abstract:

In friction surfacing process, the temperature field and strain field, especially of coating rod, is considered an important element in analyzing the process’ mechanism and choosing the key process parameters properly. In this paper, the finite element method was employed to simulate the coupling of 3-D temperature field and deformation field of coating rod during friction surfacing. The simulation results show that at the preliminary preheating period, the isotherm goes down at the center part, and the temperature field presents “M” along the radial direction. The temperature increasing rate at the friction interface is higher at first, and then become lower, once the friction system becomes quasi-steady, the temperature here will be stable approximately. The largest effective strain occurs near the center of bottom circle. The simulation results are close to the experimental results, thus builds a basis for analyzing the process’s mechanism, allows for theoretical guidance for analyzing feasibility and helps optimize key parameters.
