Experimental Investigations of Graphene Nanoparticle-Based Cutting Fluid during Turning of Titanium Alloy (Grade 5) with Minimum Quantity Lubrication
Journal Title: Journal of Advanced Research in Manufacturing, Material Science & Metallurgical Engineering - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Nano Fluid Based Minimum quantity lubrication (NFBMQL) has proved to be a sustainable approach that can update minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) for the application of cutting fluid in the metal cutting operation. Addition of nanoparticles within the reducing fluid might also improve the cooling and lubricating properties of the base fluid. Present work offers with the experimental investigation of the effect of the addition of graphene nanoparticles inside the cutting fluid under MQL on machinability characteristics inclusive of surface roughness, flank wear, cutting area temperature and machining time. Response surface technique (RSM) was applied to the experimental layout. Cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut had been taken as machining parameters. Regression analyses changed into employed to estimate flank wear, surface roughness, machining time and cutting area temperature. ANOVA became implemented to look at the influence of cutting parameters on cutting temperature, flank wear, machining time and surface roughness. Results confirmed that of graphene nanoparticles performed an extended position in reducing flank put on of cutting tool even at the higher significance of cutting speed and feed rate which has an enormous ability to improving the productivity of machining. Minimum surface roughness became also acquired at better; in the end, the optimization of output responses became executed which will offer the levels of quality cutting conditions.
