The proposed model was given in terms of preheat-only test applicable during thermally enhanced machining using the oxyacetylene flame as a heat source. The FEA model as well as the experimental test investigated the surface temperature distribution on 316L stainless steel at scanning speed of 100mm/min, 125mm/min 160mm/min, 200mm/min and 250mm/min. The parametric properties of the heat source maintained constant are; lead distance Ld =10mm, focus height Fh=7.5mm, oxygen gas pressure Poxy=15psi and acetylene gas pressure Pacty=25psi. An experimental validation of the temperature field induced on type 316L stainless steel reveal that temperature distribution increases when the travelling speed decreases. {\^A}{\copyright} Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.}, keywords = {Atmospheric temperature; Engineering education; Finite element method; Temperature; Temperature distribution, 3-D finite elements; 316 L stainless steel; Experimental investigations; Experimental validations; Finite element modelling; Surface temperature distribution; Type 316L stainless steel; Workpiece temperature, Stainless steel}, author = {Alkali, A.
