An investigation of die temperature changes and the heat transfer coefficient during hot forging of titanium alloy has been carried out using experiments and a thermal-plastic coupled finite element analysis. Hot Ti-6A1–4V rings were forged between two heated flat dies made of Inconel alloy IN718. The bottom die was instrumented with high-response thermocouples on its surface and subsurface. The recorded temperatures were analysed and used to determine the interface heat transfer coefficient between the die and the workpiece in conjunction with the thermal-plastic coupled finite element analysis using a reverse algorithm. The coefficients determined were then used in a finite element model for the analysis of the upsetting process and the results produced were in good agreement with the experimental data.

The characteristics of the augmentation technique previously proposed by the authors has been studied experimentally with water drops 3.9 to 5.9 mm in diameter rising in methylphenyl silicone oil. Each drop is subjected to an intermittent electric field applied periodically perpendicular to its trajectory, and the drop responds by periodic elongation in the direction of the field. The dependence of heat transfer coefficient on the strength, frequency and duty ratio of the field is presented and discussed.
