Abstract: Because the anisotropy of shale formation should result in that wellbore deviations is unpredictable, the bit-rock interaction should be fully lucubrated in order to eliminate this problem. The impact of shale rock anisotropy and the cutting velocity on the load of PDC cutter wasn’t considered by the existing cutter-rock interaction models. On the basis of experiments of cutting shale with PDC cutter, using the stress tensor analysis theory, the relationship between the shale rock anisotropy and the cutter’s force is proposed in this paper. A new cutter-rock interaction model was established, and then a new bit-rock interaction model was set up. That applying these models to the ROP prediction of directional PDC bit can improve forecast accuracy is found.

Abstract: This paper presents experimental investigations on influences of cooling air temperature, as well as cutting velocity, on performance in milling of the 1Cr18Ni9Ti alloy with coated cemented carbide inserts. Cutting force, tool wear and surface roughness are experimentally studied to compare the effects of different cooling air temperatures. The results showed that minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) with cooling air significantly reduces cutting force, tool wear. Three different cooling air temperatures are used to investigate the effects of cooling air temperature on the machinability characteristics of 1Cr18Ni9Ti alloy. Based on the experimental results, MQL with cooling air of −50°C provides more favorable effects compared to the other two cooling air temperatures (−10°C, −30°C). However, different cooling air temperatures have a slight effect on cutting force under the same MQL condition.
