Abstract

A single point cutting tool is modeled out of two different materials having desired thermoelectric properties. The tool material used is B4C doped with different compositions of Titanium Carbide. In the present work, three different compositions of B4C doped on both sides of cutting tool made by tungsten carbide. The range of composition of boron carbide (B4C) was selected randomly with 0-12.5%, 0-25.4% and 12.5 – 25.4% of B4C on first half and second half of the cutting tool respectively. The simulation process is done in ANSYS 2020 R2 software, thermal-electric module (TEM) is used. From these studies it is evident that considerable cooling effect is achieved and found to be the lowest temperature of 14.960C is observed for 0-25.4% B4C, 18.790C is observed for 0- 12.5%B4C and 26.730C for 12.5-25.4% B4C at the junction of the materials which is nearer to the cutting tip respectively. Finally it is concluded that  one side of cutting tool without any doping  and other side with 25.4% B4C doped showed good results which observed by conducting number of simulations at different levels of iterations for B4C doped titanium carbide cutting tool used in turning operation.
