Prediction of cutting forces in flank milling of parts with non-developable ruled surfaces

Predicting the cutting forces required for five-axis flank milling is a challenging task due to the difficulties involved in determining the Undeformed Chip Thickness(UCT) and CutterWorkpiece Engagement(CWE). To solve these problems, this paper presents a new mechanistic cutting force model based on the geometrical analysis of a flank milling process. In the model,the part feature and corresponding cutting location data are taken as input information. The UCT considering cutter runout is calculated according to the instantaneous feed rate of the element cutting edges. A solid-discrete-based method is used to precisely and efficiently identify the CWE between the end mill and the surface being machined. Then, after calibrating the specific force coef-ficients, the mechanistic milling force can be obtained. During the validation process, two practical operations, three-axis flank milling of a vertical surface and five-axis flank milling of a nondevelopable ruled surface, are conducted. Comparisons between predicted and measured cutting forces demonstrate the reliability of the proposed cutting force model.

Performance investigation of intercooler operating in wet condition using distributed parameter model

The performance of a marine gas turbine intercooler operating in wet condition was evaluated.The intercooler was a cross-flow plate-fin heat exchanger that used air and pure water as its working fluids at the hot and cold sides,respectively.The heat transfer performance and the water vapor condensation were investigated for a relative humidity of the inlet air that reached 100% during warship cruise.The condensation of the water vapors increased the hot side outlet temperature by a certain amount,which could in turn influence the performance of the compressor downstream.The condensate film thickness and the void fraction were calculated based on an annular two-phase flow model.It is found that water vapor condensation in hot flow channel increases the outlet temperature with a maximum value of 7.3℃ in the case of 100% relative humidity.The calculated liquid film thickness reaches a maximum value of 4μm,which indicates negligible thermal resistance to heat transfer.The results of liquid film thicknesses also provide a qualitative prediction of the diameter distribution of the condensate water droplets.     

Cutting force prediction for circular end milling process

A deduced cutting force prediction model for circular end milling process is presented in this paper. Traditional researches on cutting force model usually focus on linear milling process which does not meet other cutting conditions, especially for circular milling process. This paper presents an improved cutting force model for circular end milling process based on the typical linear milling force model. The curvature effects of tool path on chip thickness as well as entry and exit angles are analyzed, and the cutting force model of linear milling process is then corrected to fit circular end milling processes. Instantaneous cutting forces during circular end milling process are predicted according to the proposed model. The deduced cutting force model can be used for both linear and circular end milling processes. Finally, circular end milling experiments with constant and variable radial depth were carried out to verify the availability of the proposed method. Experiment results show that measured results and simulated results corresponds well with each other.

三维颅面复原技术研究综述

颅面复原是对人类的颅骨进行面部容貌复原的技术。颅面复原技术以头骨与面貌相互关系规律为科学依据，广泛应用于刑侦、考古等领域。三维颅面复原有两种主要方式，手工颅面复原和计算机辅助三维颅面复原。由于手工复原一般需要7至15个工作日，而且还不能重现皮肤纹理，从而导致质感缺乏，复原效果不理想。随着计算机技术的发展，出现了借助计算机技术复原颅骨面貌的虚拟三维技术即计算机辅助颅面复原技术。这里重点介绍了计算机辅助颅面复原技术的基本方法和进展情况。

几何尺寸对高超声速进气道气动性能的影响

为了探索模型缩尺比对高超声速进气道气动性能的影响,对不同缩尺比的二元高超声速进气道开展了数值模拟研究,结果表明：随着缩尺比的增大,进气道流量系数、隔离段出口总压恢复系数和马赫数均逐渐增大,而静压比逐渐减小,且来流马赫数越高,上述参数变化幅度越大。由理论与数值模拟分析可知,上述现象主要是由于不同缩尺比下,进气道当地雷诺数不同,导致进气道附面层相对厚度变化,进而影响进气道气动性能。理论分析了进气道总压恢复系数与缩尺比的定量关系,就进气道而言,进气道进口处附面层相对厚度减小1%,隔离段出口总压恢复系数提高约0.7%。
