Numerical Simulation of Temperature Field of Linear Friction Welding of Titanium Alloy

摘要

In this paper, A 3D finite-elements model of titanium alloy TC4 of linear friction welding is developed based on the solution of several key techniques, such as contact boundary condition treating, material properties definition, meshing technology, etc. The temperature field and the temperature gradient of workpiece are showed in results. The temperature at the interface was quickly increased to near 1000°C at 1s, and then reached a quasi-steady and the stable temperature of interface maintained about 1100°C until welding finished.
