Rotary Friction Welding Thermal Prediction Model 2011-01-2723
This paper starting by a previous mathematical model of rotary friction welding by the same authors defines a predictive methodology for a faster setup of rotary friction welding operations by thermal concentrated parameter model which describes temperature as a function of three elemental parameters: time, pressure and torque. It describes present a specific thermal method of calculation and verifies it by experimental data using a very simple experimental setup.
