Abstract: The grinding fluid has the function of cooling and lubricating only when it breaks through the airflow barrier near the grinding wheel and enters into the contact area between the grinding wheel and the workpiece. The air-fluid two-phase flow software is used to simulate the characteristics of the grinding fluid field based on VOF, and the special constraint conditions of the outlet pressure are not applied in simulation. The characteristics of the grinding fluid jet and the real moving characteristics of the grinding fluid between the jet flow area and the grinding area are analyzed. It provides the research foundation for the parameters of the grinding fluid supplying.

Abstract: It is necessary to supply enough grinding fluid during grinding process to lower grinding temperature. But, there is little grinding fluid into the contact area actually due to the airflow layer with high pressure around grinding wheel. In this paper, the finite element analysis and simulation on airflow field in the grinding zone is performed based on hydrodynamics. The performance and the influencing mechanism of the airflow field on effective grinding fluid are analyzed further. The research works show that it is important to design the grinding wheel and fluid jet parameters reasonably for increasing the proportion of effective grinding fluid.
