On modelling coolant penetration into the microchannels at the tool-workpiece interface (2022)
Journal Article
Wei, W., Robles-Linares, J. A., Liao, Z., Wang, Z., Luna, G. G., Billingham, J., & Axinte, D. (2022). On modelling coolant penetration into the microchannels at the tool-workpiece interface. Journal of Manufacturing Processes, 84, 43-54. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmapro.2022.09.044

A network of microchannels is formed at the interface between the cutting tool and the workpiece during machining due to their rough surface structures. The penetration of coolant into these microchannels has a great effect on the machined surface qu...
