Data sets for heat generation and associated contact temperature during an oblique impact of a deformable particle and a rigid substrate

This dataset contains essential data from the Finite Element Method model predicting heat generation due to friction and plastic deformation during the oblique impact of a deformable particle and a rigid substrate. Part of this data was processed and published in a journal article (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.powtec.2023.118481). The following is the description of the data files and the associated Figure in the original paper. ‘Heat_Elast_Vt.xlsx’ and ‘Temp_Elast_Vt.xlsx’ data for the evolution of heat and nodal contact temperature, respectively, for varying tangential velocity. Data was used in Figs. 7a and 7b in the associated paper ‘Heat_Vt.xlsx’ and Heat_Vn.xlsx’ data for the evolution of heat for various tangential velocities and normal velocities, respectively. Data was used in Figs. 8a and 8b in the associated paper. ‘Heat_YM.xlsx’ and ‘Temp_YM.xlsx’ data for the evolution of heat and nodal contact temperatures, respectively, for varying Young’s moduli. Data was used in Figs. 9 and 10 in the associated paper. ‘Heat_YS.xlsx’ and ‘Temp_YS.xlsx’ data for the evolution of heat and nodal contact temperatures for varying yield strengths. Data was used in Figs. 11 and 12 in the associated paper. ‘Heat_Den.xlsx’ and ‘Temp_Den.xlsx’ data for heat and nodal contact temperature evolution, respectively, for varying yield strengths. Data was used in Figs. 13 and 14 in the associated paper.  ‘Temp_TC.xlsx’ data for the evolution of nodal contact temperatures for varying thermal conductivities. Data was used in Fig. 15 in the associated paper. ‘Temp_HC.xlsx’ data for the evolution of nodal contact temperatures for varying specific heat capacities. Data was used in Fig. 16 in the associated paper.
