Cutting Fluid Mist Formation in Turning via Atomization: Part 1—Model Development (original) (raw)

Manufacturing Engineering

Abstract

Cutting fluid mist is becoming an increasing concern for manufacturers as additional information is obtained on the health risks that it poses. This two-part paper is focused on investigating cutting fluid mist formation via an atomization mechanism in a turning process. Models will be established to predict the fluid mist mean drop size as well as the drop size distribution. Predictive relationships will also be presented for the settling behavior of the fluid mist and the mass concentration. Part 1 of the paper is devoted to the development of the requisite models to describe the mist creation and settling phenomena. In Part 2 of the paper, the mist formation models will be validated through a series of experiments.
