Abstract


Presented paper is focused on knowledge in the field of tube drawing process. The introduction consists of summarizing the current state of the art. In the material and methods section, it is a characteristic of the usability of rifled tubes for heat exchangers, which serve to better heat exchange between the medium and the tube. The following section describes the implementation of the experiment. This section shows the principle of pipe drawing using a grooved mandrel and a die. The result section is showing resulting a simulation of strength analyzes and the recorded values during the pulling tests. In conclusion, the aim of this paper is briefly explained, as well as the need to take into account the leading part of the mandrel, which may result in incorrect geometry and cavitation. In conclusion, the issue is mentioned, which is beneficial for science and research in the field of cold drawing of tubes. It is also about knowledge with internally shaped surface in energetic equipment.
