Conference Paper Description

Frictional heating, produced due to friction between contacting elements in a relative sliding motion, is the result of the transformation of mechanical energy into internal energy. Frictional heating raises contact surface temperature (CST) that may lead to the formation of oxides, thermo-elastic instabilities, thermomechanical failure, and wear. The exact mechanism of frictional energy dissipation is still under research due to the complexity of the contact geometry. The purpose of the present study is to determine the average CST by using a simplified mathematical model based on steady-state temperature distribution. The study first estimates flash temperature generation for a deformed asperity by considering asperity stiffness on strain energy approach during sliding. The mathematical model presented here is a steady-state equation of the heat flow through the pin and achieving its solution in a reverse manner by using computer programming to calculate the average CST.
