What is Finite Element Modelling of the Initial Stages of a Hot Forging Cycle about?
A heat transfer model developed to predict the temperature distributions in the billets during the initial stages of a hot forging cycle is presented. The model takes into account the heating of billets, the moving of billets from the furnace to the press and the free resting of the billets on the die. The analysis includes the characteristics of di erent types of heating equipments currently utilised in forging companies: fuel-ÿred furnaces, induction and direct resistance electrical systems. The paper presents an example that illustrates the application of the proposed heat transfer model in the prediction of the temperature distribution inside the billets at the beginning of the hot forging cycle. The potential, capabilities and shortcomings of the model are discussed and recommendations for promoting a full utilisation of the capabilities of the ÿnite element method in the simulation of metal forming processes are made.
