This paper presents a methodology to determine simultaneously (a) the flow stress at high deformation rates and temperatures that are encountered in the cutting zone, and (b) the friction at the chip–tool interface. This information is necessary to simulate high-speed machining using FEM based programs. A flow stress model based on process dependent parameters such as strain, strain-rate and te...

an analytical study was performed to study effects of thermo-diffusion and chemical reactions on a three-dimensional mhd mixed convective flow of dissipative fluid along an infinite vertical porous plate with transverse sinusoidal suction velocity. the parabolic partial differential equations governing the fluid flow, heat transfer, and mass transfer were solved using perturbation technique and...

There are several parameters that have significant influence in metal forming process. One of the most important of them is friction coefficient. Friction can change the pattern of metal flow and the force needed for deformation. It is necessary to determine the friction coefficient to study the effect of friction on metal forming process. This study is concerned with numerical and experimental...

An analytical investigation is conducted to study the unsteady free convection heat and mass transfer flow through a non-homogeneous porous medium with variable permeability bounded by an infinite porous vertical plate in slip flow regime while taking into account the thermal radiation, chemical reaction, the Soret number, and temperature gradient dependent heat source. The flow is considered u...

A shallow-layer model for granular flows is completed with a closure relation for the macroscopic bed friction or basal roughness obtained from micro-scale discrete particle simulations of steady flows. We systematically vary the bed friction by changing the contact friction coefficient between basal and flowing particles, while the base remains geometrically rough. By simulating steady uniform...

Experiments were performed to study the flow characteristics of ethanol and methanol flow in rectangular micro-channels using test models 1 and 2 (TM1, TM2). The TM1 and TM2 used were of 47 and 50 micro-channels in rectangular crosssection of equivalent diameters of 387 and 327 m respectively. The channel length of 192 mm were fabricated on a 304 stainless steel substrate (230 mm x 160 mm x 1....

In order to increase the efficiency of the conveyance of the granular solids, a new experimental set-up is designed. The test rig has longitudinal trapezoidal slots in its conveying pipes. Through experimentation, a correlation for friction factor in terms of solid mass flow rate, fluid flow rate and Froude number is presented. It is shown that the mixture friction factor for pipes with inn...

An increase in the flow velocity in flowthrough large porous media and deflection of flow regime from Darcy law causes a nonlinear relationship between hydraulic gradient and pore velocity of media. So many investigations have done previously in such Medias. One of the most important subjects in flowthrough large porous media is relationship between friction coefficient and flow characteristics...
