Fabrication of the injection nozzle micro-hole on the aero engine is a difficult problem in today’s manufacturing industry. In addition to the size requirements, the nozzle micro-hole also requires no burr, no taper and no heat-affected zone. To solve the above problem, an ultra-short voltage pulse and a high-speed rotating helical electrode were used in electrochemical drilling (ECD) process. Firstly, a theoretical model of ECD with ultra-short voltage pulse was established to investigate the effects of many predominant parameters on machining accuracy, and the effect of rotating helical electrode on the gap flow field was analyzed. Secondly, sets of experiments were carried out to investigate the effects of many key parameters on machining accuracy and efficiency. Finally, the optimized parameters were applied to machine micro holes on 500 μm thickness of GH4169 plate, and micro-holes with the diameter of 186 μm with no taper were machined at the feed rate of 1.2 μm/s. It is proved that the proposed ECD process for fabricating micro-holes with no taper has a huge potential and broad application prospects.

It is a difficult problem to fabricate deep and micro holes on the difficult-to-cut metals in the field of aviation manufacturing. The experimental research of electrochemical drilling technology with high-speed micro electrode for fabricating deep micro holes is carried out. The influences of rotary speed on machining precision and stability are studied. The holes, which the diameter is about 400μm, the aspect ratio is more than 10, and have steep wall and sharp edges were fabricated successfully on the nickelbase superalloys on self-developed high-precision micro-electrochemical machining system. It is proved that the high-speed electrochemical drilling process for fabricating deep and micro holes has a huge potential and broad application prospects.

Under high and super-high speed, oil film of the journal bearing is easy to crack and then becomes cavitation. The existence of cavitation has an important effect on the work characteristics of the shaft. On the journal bearing experiment rig the cavitation characteristics of the three-groove journal beaing were studied. The influences of the shaft rotating speed and supply pressure on cavitation shape were investigated. The results show that rotating speed and supply pressure have a clear effect on the cavitation shape, and the number of cavitation strip in the rupture zone decreases when the supply pressure increases.
