The purpose of this study is to determine the three-dimensional temperature fields on the chip, tool and workpiece during machining, which is one of the most important characteristic of machining processes; since the fields can affect other properties such as residual stresses and tool wear, and thus tool life and fatigue life of finished parts. The finite difference method (FDM)-based model proposed in this paper offers very rapid and reasonably accurate solutions. Finite difference-based simulation results are validated with infrared thermal measurements which are determined from the machining of AISI 1050 and AISI H13 materials under various cutting conditions.
