Abstract With the development of motorized spindle, the cooling effect and the distribution of cooling capacity become the crucial problem of cooling system. An optimization method for ThermoElectric-based Cooling System (TECS) is proposed based on the conservation of energy to distribute the cooling capacity. The main strategy of the proposed optimization method is to make the cold and heat input at different regions of the spindle sleeve equal in real-time through optimizing the contact area between the Heat Conduction Sleeve (HCS) and spindle sleeve. The numerical simulation and thermal characteristics experiments are carried to verify the effect of the proposed optimization method and the TECS. The simulation and experimental results show that the maximum temperature rise and thermal elongation of the TECS-based motorized spindle are reduced 56.7% and 58.6% compared with water-cooled motorized spindle, and the temperature distribution of the spindle sleeve is more uniform. It is meaningful to improve the accuracy of motorized spindle.

Experiment And Simulation

The thermal deformation of high-speed motorized spindle will affect its reliability, so fully considering its thermal characteristics is the premise of optimal design. In order to study the thermal characteristics of high-speed motorized spindles, a coupled model of thermal-flow-structure was established. Through experiment and simulation, the thermal characteristics of spiral cooling motorized spindle are studied, and the U-shaped cooled motorized spindle is designed and optimized. The simulation results show that when the diameter of the cooling channel is 7 mm, the temperature of the spiral cooling system is lower than that of the U-shaped cooling system, but the radial thermal deformation is greater than that of the U-shaped cooling system. As the increase of the channel diameter of U-shaped cooling system, the temperature and radial thermal deformation decrease. When the diameter is 10 mm, the temperature and radial thermal deformation are lower than the spiral cooling system. And as the flow rate increases, the temperature and radial thermal deformation gradually decrease, which provides a basis for a reasonable choice of water flow rate. The maximum error between experiment and simulation is 2°C, and the error is small, which verifies the accuracy and lays the foundation for future research.

Abstract With the increase of spindle speed, heat generation becomes the crucial problem of high-speed motorized spindle. A new cooling system for motorized spindle is proposed based on the principles of thermoelectric refrigeration and fast heat conduction. The main strategy of the proposed ThermoElectric-based Cooling System (TECS) is using the ThermoElectric Cooler (TEC) to cool the spindle through a Heat Conduction Sleeve (HCS). The TEC is designed according to the heat generation of motorized spindle. The cooling capacity generated by the TEC is controlled by electric current passing through the TEC according to the temperature rise of HCS. The HCS is designed to distribute the cold quickly and is installed around the spindle sleeve working as cooling medium. The simulation results show that the cooling effect of the proposed TECS is better than water water-cooling system. It is meaningful to improve the accuracy of motorized spindle.

The thermal characteristics of the motorized spindle determines maching qualities and cutting capabilities, and is one of the important factors influencing the precision of the high speed NC machine tool. To improve the performance of the high speed machine tool, it is important to study the thermal characteristics of the motorized spindle. It had been studied in two ways: one is finite element analysis by Ansys software, in which the finite element analysis model was built. According to the actual working condition, the heat source and the heat transfer coefficient of every part are calculated. On this basis, the temperature field and temperature rises were gotten in Ansys software. The other way is temperature rises experiment on the motorized spindle test platform. The result was shown in the form of curve. These two ways shown the same result: the highest temperature rise appears in the area of electromotor, then followed by the rolling bearing .The result provides the necessary theory basis for optimizing the structure of the motorized spindle and establishes a basis for the research and application about the high speed spindle.

In this paper, a natural convection micro cooling system with a capillary microgroove evaporator is proposed. An experimental study on the characteristics of thermal resistance, pressure drop and heat transfer of the cooling system was carried out. Experimental results indicate that the liquid fill ratio has a significant influence on thermal resistance and heat transfer in the cooling system. Increasing system’s cooling capacity at higher input power depends on decreasing the thermal resistance between the outer surfaces of the condenser and ambient environment. Compared with a flat miniature heat pipe (FMHP) and a current fan-cooled radiator for CPU chip of Pentium IV, the present micro cooling system has a stronger heat dissipation capacity. Its best cooling performance at a surface temperature of heat source below 373K reaches 1.68×106W/m2 and the maximum heat transportation capacity is 131.8W. The novel kind of cooling system is suitable for remote cooling of those electronic parts with micro size, high power and thermal sensitivity.
