Abstract
A numerical method was developed to simulate the transient temperature distributions during forward extrusion process. The computer program simulates the extrusion process and takes into account some extrusion variables such as extrusion velocity, extrusion ratio, die preheat temperature, and percentage reduction in area. It can be seen that the higher the percentages reduction in areas, the higher the temperature rises during the extrusion process. Also, increasing speed of deformation shows an increasing dead zone temperature rise than a more gradual die land temperature rise. It is further seen that extrusion temperature increase is a function of the container temperature.
