Abstract
An experimental comparison of cutting fluid delivery nozzles was carried out with application to profile creepfeed grinding. A novel method of nozzle design and development involving rapid-prototyping enabled an exhaustive experimental approach. Circular, rectangular, and elliptical orifice nozzles were compared in terms of workpiece profile error, workpiece surface roughness, and grinding power over a variety of workpiece feedrates and cutting fluid jet pressures. For the grinding conditions used in this research, it was observed that, although the circular nozzle performed best, higher nozzle inlet pressures yielded smoother workpiece surface finishes.
