Comment: "This one was difficult to grade, given there are several "right" answers. I finally decided in favour of Robert's suggestion because, as he rightly says, anyone can understand it.
Thanks to all for your helpful input."

heat removal
Gets you around the inelegant "away".
"The thermal conductivity of the coating is also important, in that it determines how the heat generated in the cutting operation will be dissipated. A high thermal conductivity value indicates that the heat will be dissipated into the tool material, causing it to soften at higher cutting speeds. A lower thermal conductivity of the coating or the tool material allows the heat to be transferred back to the metal chip, which is a more desirable method of heat removal."
"Due to the difference in conductivity, care must be taken to ensure adequate removal of heat from the workpiece and the tool. Overheating can result in blunting of the tool and localized burning of the workpiece surface."
