Modeling of wet stirred media mill processes is challenging since it requires the simultaneous modeling of the complex multiphysics in the interactions between grinding media, the moving internal agitator elements, and the grinding fluid. In the present study, a multiphysics model of an HIG5 pilot vertical stirred media mill with a nominal power of 7.5 kW is developed. The model is based on a particle-based coupled solver approach, where the grinding fluid is modeled with the particle finite element method (PFEM), the grinding media are modeled with the discrete element method (DEM), and the mill structure is modeled with the finite element method (FEM). The interactions between the different constituents are treated by loose (or weak) two-way couplings between the PFEM, DEM, and FEM models. Both water and a mineral slurry are used as grinding fluids, and they are modeled as Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids, respectively. In the present work, a novel approach for transferring forces between grinding fluid and grinding media based on the Reynolds number is implemented. This force transfer is realized by specifying the drag coefficient as a function of the Reynolds number. The stirred media mill model is used to predict the mill power consumption, dynamics of both grinding fluid and grinding media, interparticle contacts of the grinding media, and the wear development on the mill structure. The numerical results obtained within the present study show good agreement with experimental measurements.

Creep Feed

An analysis is presented for the fraction of the energy transported as heat to the workpiece during grinding. The abrasive grains and grinding fluid in the wheel pores are considered as a thermal composite which moves relative to the grinding zone at the wheel speed. The energy partition fraction to the workpiece is modeled by setting the temperature of the workpiece surface equal to that of the composite surface at every point along the grinding zone, which allows variation of the energy partition along the grinding zone. Analytical results indicate that the energy partition fraction to the workpiece is approximately constant along the grinding zone for regular down grinding, but varies greatly along the grinding zone for regular up grinding and both up and down creep-feed grinding. The resulting temperature distributions have important implications for selecting up versus down grinding especially for creep-feed operations.

Area Increase

Relative motion between grinding wheel and workpiece makes the lubricant film pressure formed by grinding fluid in the grinding area increase, consequently, dynamic pressure lubrication forms. The grinding fluid flow field mathematical model in smooth grinding area is established based on lubrication theory. The dynamic pressure of grinding fluid field, flow velocity and carrying capacity of lubricating film are calculated by the numerical analysis method. An analysis of effect of grinding fluid hydrodynamic on the total lifting force is performed, and the results are obtained.

An experimental investigation is reported on the grinding of a titanium alloy using electroplated CBN wheels with water-based grinding fluid and wheel surface cleaning fluid applied at high pressures. This work was motivated by applying grinding fluid and wheel surface cleaning fluid both at high pressures for avoiding wheel loading, which is commonly seen in titanium alloy grinding. The objective is to explore the feasibility to grind titanium alloys with electroplated CBN wheels and high pressure wheel surface cleaning fluid for enhancing material removal rates. Straight surface grinding experiments were conducted on titanium alloy blocks in both shallow depth of cut and creep-feed modes. Grinding power, forces, and surface roughness were measured. Specific material removal rates of 8 mm2/s in shallow cut mode and 3 mm2/s at a depth of cut as high as 3 mm in creep-feed mode were achieved without burning and smearing of ground surfaces. It was showed that it is feasible to grind titanium alloys with electroplated CBN wheels at enhanced removal rates by applying grinding and wheel cleaning fluid at high pressures.

Grinding Power

In high and super-high speed grinding process, there is an airflow layer with high speed around the circle edge of the grinding wheel that hinders the grinding fluid into contact layer, namely, the air barrier effect. The speed of airflow layer is directly proportional to the square of the wheel speed. Quick-point grinding is a new type of high and super-high speed grinding process with a point contact zone and less grinding power. The edge effect of the air barrier is weakened because the thin CBN wheel is applied in the process. By the analysis of dynamic pressure and velocity distributions in the airflow layer around the wheel edge, the mathematic models of the flow and jet pressure of grinding fluid for effective supply in the process were established and the process of optimization calculation of the jet nozzle diameter for green manufacturing was also analyzed based on the thermodynamics and the technical character of quick-point grinding process. The quick-point grinding experiment for surface integrity influenced by grinding fluid supply parameters was performed.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the characteristic and function of oxide film formed on grinding wheel in electrolytic in-process dressing (ELID) precision grinding and improve the quality of ELID grinding. Design/methodology/approach Dynamic film forming experiments were carried out with a simulation device close to the actual processing conditions. Then, the ELID grinding experiments of bearing rings were performed using grinding wheels with good film forming effect. The experiment was designed by quadratic regression general rotation combination method. The influence of grinding depth, electrolytic voltage, duty cycle and grinding wheel linear speed on grinding effect is analyzed. Findings A mathematical model for the formation rate of oxide film was established. The experiments show that the composition of grinding wheel and grinding fluid, as well as the electrical parameters, influence the film forming effect. Thus, the oxide film plays an important role in ELID grinding. Originality/value This study provides a reference for the design and selection of grinding wheel and grinding fluid and the setting of process parameters in ELID grinding.
