Abstract
Bone drilling is an important procedure in medical orthopedic surgery and it is inevitable that heat will be generated during the drilling process and higher temperatures can cause thermal damage to the bone tissue near the drilled hole. Therefore, the capability to obtain the cortical bone drilling temperature distribution area can have great significance for medical bone surgery. Based on the theory of heat transfer, a predictive model for cortical bone drilling temperature distribution was established. The energy distribution coefficient in cortical bone drilling was derived, based on conjugate gradient inversion. A cortical bone drilling experiment platform was built to verify the temperature distribution prediction model. The results show that the model of cortical bone drill temperature distribution could predict accurately the drilling temperature distribution, both for different depths and for different radial distances. Additionally, the effects of different drilling conditions (spindle speed, feed rate, drill diameter) on the temperature of drilling cortical bone were considered.
