Abstract: A recent development in cooling and lubrication technology for micromachining processes is the use of atomized spray cooling systems. These systems have been shown to be more effective than traditional methods of cooling ...

Abstract: Recent studies show that interparticle interaction can affect particle trajectories and particle deposition causing fouling in the microfilters used for metal working fluids (MWFs). Interparticle interaction depends on ...

Abstract: The depletion of native oil components from semisynthetic metalworking fluids (MWFs) during microfiltration is caused in part by the deposition of the MWF components on the pore walls, a mechanism that also results in the ...

Abstract: This paper presents a fluid dynamicbased approach to the prediction of the flux decline due to partial and complete pore blocking in the microfiltration process. The electrostatic force model includes both particle–particle ...

Abstract: Atomizationbased cutting fluid systems (ACFs) are increasingly being used in micromachining applications to provide cooling and lubrication to the tool–chip interface. In this research, a shielding nozzle design is ...
