Foreword
This thesis is written as fulfilment to the master’s degree. The master’s programme focuses on
Production Engineering and Management. The subject of this thesis, CFD simulation of MQL
with low temperature and high-pressure coolant for machining operation falls within the scope
of master’s field as it is explained in detail in the coming sections. Since March this year I have
been conducting research and simulations on the stated topic. I have experienced this period as
very challenging and instructive. At the beginning I had limited knowledge on Computational
Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and ANSYS software but as I progressed I could be able to deal with
different types of technical problems involved in this thesis. However, I have been able to
achieve the simulation results for which I have been working on. First, I am grateful to my
family members who supported me throughout my master’s programme and I am nothing
without them. I would like to thank my supervisor at KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Mr.
Amir Rashid for his valuable insights and directions and gave me needful guidance to complete
research and simulations. He continuously supported me whenever I needed technical support
and clarifications. Also, I want to thank Mr. Salman Pervaiz, former Ph.D. student at KTH Royal
Institute of Technology, for providing suggestions and input during our teleconference to the
simulations I needed to perform in ANSYS as his work is the main basis for this thesis.

Abstract:
Employing huge amount of cutting fluids in machining process has potential negative impacts
not only to the operator but also to the environment along with increased cost of
manufacturing process. To reduce the cutting fluid consumption during machining, a technique
called Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL) is introduced which uses very less amount of
cutting fluid yet being effective than flood cooling. This thesis focuses on determining the
convection over a cutting insert with a constant heat source inside a square enclosure and the
computational domain of the CFD model presented consists of fluid and solid domains with
fluid-solid interaction. The feasibility of MQL using low temperature and high-pressure coolant
and observing how temperature is dropping after the application of coolant/coolants by
simulating the conditions in ANSYS fluent workbench. The effectiveness of this technique is
determined in terms of whether high pressure and low temperature coolant can dissipate heat
and remove chips from the cutting interface. Finally drawing conclusion based on results.

Sammanfattning:
Att använda stora mängder skärvätskor vid en bearbetningsprocess har potentiellt negativ
inverkan inte bara för operatören men också på miljön. Utöver detta tillkommer ökade
kostnader för tillverkningsprocessen. För att minska skärvätskekonsumtionen under
maskinbearbetning införs en teknik som kallas minimalsmörjning(MQL=Minimum Quantity
Lubrication) som använder mycket mindre mängd skärvätska men ändå är effektivare än
standard kylspolning med skärvätska.
Denna avhandling fokuserar på att bestämma konvektionen över ett skär med en konstant
värmekälla placerad inuti ett kvadratiskt hölje och beräkningsdomänen för den CFD-modell som
presenteras, vilken består av flytande och fasta domäner och interaktion mellan dessa.
Möjligheten att använda MQL då lågtemperatur- och högtryckskylmedel appliceras undersöks
och hur temperaturen sjunker efter applicering av kylmedel/kylvätskor observeras genom att
simulera förhållandena i ANSYS flytande arbetsbänk. Denna tekniks effektivitet bestäms med
avseende på huruvida högtrycks- och lågtemperaturkylvätska kan avleda värme och
transportera bort spånor från ingreppszonen. Slutligen sammanställs resultaten och därpå
dragna slutsatserna.
Nyckelord: Temperatur, Tryck, Vätskeflöde, Värmeöverföring, Skärvätska, Kylmedel, Hastighet,

1 Introduction and background:
Sustainable manufacturing is basically making products using processes that are economic and
environmentally friendly. It has so many parts and sustainable machining is one of them. As
part of it, industries have been strenuously trying to minimize the use of lubricants. The main
problem in sustainable machining is the usage of mineral based cutting fluid near the metal
cutting zone. Some fluids like the mix of oil and water (called emulsion) creates more
environmental issues due to the formation of microbes. This microbial growth should further be
controlled by adding additives which makes the entire process expensive. To overcome these
problems, a new technique of using the cutting fluid has been introduced and it is called as
Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL) or otherwise called as near dry machining. [1]
In any machining operation, the two main aspects to be considered are proper lubrication of
workpiece and tool, heat removal near the cutting zone. Though flood cooling is very efficient
at lower cutting speeds, it is not good for higher cutting speeds since the cutting fluid cannot
pass through the tool and workpiece interface. Also, the intense heat that is generated
vaporizes the coolant sprayed before it can reach the cutting zone. This intensifies the pressure
on the tool tip and deteriorates the quality and reduction in life of the tool. At this point, the
technique of MQL can be deployed and be a better substitute. [2]
The goal is to produce parts at low cost yet maintaining high quality of finished parts. Quality
and productivity both depend on minimum part rejections and reduced downtime in
machining, there are several parameters involved and their relationship with each other also
affects the performance of machine. Machining of hard materials produce even lot of heat
compared to softer materials, but the heat removal should be done only by the cutting fluid
used. [2]
MQL concept was implemented by many researchers and claimed to have shown noticeable
improvement when compared with dry machining but more important information would have
been obtained had they compared flood cooling technique and MQL. High pressure coolant
usage during machining is found to improve the tool life significantly [3].

2 Cutting fluids:
Cutting fluids occupy a vital role in the machining of metals. These are employed to absorb the
heat produced near the tool-workpiece interface (cutting zone) and to wash out the chips that
are formed on the rake face. Continuous removal of chips from the rake face also avoids the
formation of built-up-edge (BUE) that restricts the tool to move forward. [2]
Cutting fluids are generally classified as cutting oils, soluble oils, synthetic fluids and semi-
synthetic fluids. Cutting oils are generally extracted from vegetable or animal or petroleum
products. Soluble oils are referred as emulsions because water droplets are mixed along with
emulsifiers. Water increases the stability of emulsion. Emulsifiers disperse oil in water giving a
stable oil in water emulsion. Sometimes water in these oils cause rust, bacteria. [2] This is very
dangerous to operator’s health. As water also evaporates quickly than oil, it may not be
economical. At high-pressure and high temperature, EP additives made of phosphorous,
Sulphur, chlorine can be employed to enhance lubrication during machining. EP additives
lowers friction and wear due to their low shear strength and anti-weld properties. There is also
a risk of fire catching during machining process when there is more proportion of oil. So, water
content can be slightly increased. But then as water content increases, chance of rusting and
bacterial growth increases. Chemical sprays that inhibit the growth of bacteria can be employed
but chemicals usage is dangerous to operator’s health and environment. [2]
Synthetic fluids are good in cooling, but lubricating properties are inferior compared to other
fluids. When discussing vegetable oils, they have high flash point and fire points and chance of
evaporation and losses are very minimal during misting. [2]

3 Literature review:
There are only a few papers published by researchers on MQL using coolants at normal
temperatures and pressures. Till date, no a research paper or work is available on MQL with
low temperatures or high pressures.
Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL) using coolants at normal temperature and pressures
were carried out by some researchers and found it to be better than the conventional flood
cooling. From the work of Toshiyuki Obikawa and Masashi Yamaguchi [4], the result shows that
with MQL using coolant at normal temperature and pressure but with different velocities, there
is some impact on the machining process. When coolant velocity is twice the cutting velocity,
the coolant can reach the clearance between tool and workpiece. Suggestions were made on
usage of high-pressure coolant which is said to change the chip formation and penetrate to the
cutting interface.
From [5], similar work was done to simulate the heat generation during cutting operation near
the tool tip. Simulation done in DEFORM-3D software shows that 817°C of temperature is
observed during cutting operation. Later, simulations conducted in ANSYS CFX to analyze the
fluid flow and heat transfer using Air as a coolant at normal temperatures and pressures but
with different velocities of coolant (0.1 m/s, 1 m/s, 10 m/s) showed remarkable results. Higher
the velocity higher the heat absorption near the tool tip. Temperature reduction using coolant
with velocity of 10 m/s is almost double that of the coolant with velocity of 0.1 m/s. Authors
suggested this work could be extended to check different types of cutting fluids.
From reference [1], experimental investigation on MQL using uncoated carbide tool was done
in comparison with dry machining and found that the cutting temperatures were reduced 10%
to 30% in MQL compared to dry condition. Also concluded that MQL machining was found to be
superior than dry condition.
From reference [6], MQL using Air at high pressures of the order 7 bar was done and found the
cutting performance of MQL machining is better than conventional machining with flood
cooling is noted which reduced cutting temperatures and enhanced chip-tool interaction. MQL
also provided better surface finish to the parts and improved tool life by reducing the damage
near tooltip. Improved tool life also gives a chance to machine work piece at a higher speeds
and higher feed rates.

3.1 Research questions
1. How does the MQL with low temperature and high-pressure coolant effect the
machining process?
2. Would MQL be able to mitigate the temperature effect on the cutting insert?
3. Would the life of cutting insert increase as a result of decrease in overall temperature
during machining?
3.2 Hypothesis
Some researchers have done simulations on Finite Element Analysis of cutting process and
experimental work on cryogenic machining using gases and MQL at the same time. There is
only one research paper “A novel numerical modelling approach to determine the temperature
distribution in the cutting tool using conjugate heat transfer (CHT) analysis” talking about
temperature distribution in the cutting insert during machining and how different velocities of
coolant minimize the process temperature. So, it is taken as the main basis. From [5] cutting
temperature and other information is extracted and used as input in this thesis. According to
[5] that contains information about simulations carried out in ANSYS CFX workbench using air
as coolant at ambient temperature (25°C) and with different velocities 0.1 m/s, 1 m/s, 10 m/s.
The simulation results were later validated through experimentation and are quite promising.
As an extension, this thesis focused on using vegetable oil as lubricant along with air as coolant
at different temperatures (ambient, zero and 10 below zero) and high-pressure values.

4 Procedure for designing and simulation:
Tool geometry, analysis, meshing and simulations are carried out here.
4.1 Design Phase
Single point cutting tool is designed in Solid Edge. A small surface is created near the edge of
the tool that represents the cutting edge. After properly constraining the dimensions, it is then
extruded and drafted the sides with required measurement. The tool is then imported to ANSYS
Fluent workbench in STEP format.

4.2. Design Modeler in Fluent
After importing the tool in STEP format into the fluent workbench, a box needs to be created to
specify the fluid zone, tool, coolant inlet and outlet. This is all done in the design modeler
(DM)designing tool in Fluent. To specify the fluid zone, Boolean operation should be performed
by subtracting the tool from the box volume thereby the remaining zone becomes fluid zone.
Coolant inlet and outlet are specified by selecting the top and bottom surfaces of the box.

Solid-fluid interaction is designed to observe the interaction between tool and the coolant
passing through the tool and to know how temperature changes are occurring in the tool.
Fig. 2 Isometric view of solid and fluid domain
4.3 Meshing
Meshing is one of the important aspects when doing CFD analysis of any application. After
required geometry is designed and modified, meshing of geometry is performed. Meshing is
basically joining the elements of a tool for analyzing fluid flow and heat transfer. Meshing
means creating mesh with grid points called nodes. The partial differential (PD) equations that
direct the fluid flow and heat transfer are not normally responsive to analytical solutions except
for simple cases. So, to analyze fluid flows, flow domains are divided into smaller subdomains.
These domains are normally made up of geometric shapes like hexahedral and tetrahedral for
3D simulations and quadrilaterals and triangles for 2D applications [7]. The governing equations
are represented and solved inside each of these subdomains. Typically, there are three
methods used to solve the nearest version of this system of equations: finite volumes, finite
elements, or finite differences. Utmost care must be taken to ensure proper continuity of
solution across the common interfaces between two subdomains, so that the approximate
solutions inside various portions are put together to give a complete picture of fluid flow in the
required domain. The subdomains are often called elements or cells, and the collection of all
elements or cells is called a mesh or grid.
For the above-mentioned geometry, tetrahedron meshing is used as it is a simple geometry.
Normal meshing is done for the geometry with a default growth rate of 1.2. Growth Rate
represents the increase in element edge length with each succeeding layer of elements. Here
-
7
1.2 growth rate represents 20% increase in element edge length with every next layer of
element.
Maximum Tet size - 4 mm
Final mesh is created with a total number of 327598 elements and 78407 nodes.
After meshing of geometry is done, fluent window is loaded to start simulation. Here all the
parameters like materials to be used (fluids and solids), cell zone conditions, boundary
conditions, initializing the solution, patching the fluid volume with air (filling the fluid volume
with air to ensure no vegetable oil is present in the fluid volume before simulation), methods to
be used for solving the model and running the solution. In practical condition, as the machine
ambience is all air, patching contributes to more accurate results.
Fig. 3 Meshing of the geometry in ANSYS fluent
4.4 Mesh Independency
Mesh Independency is another important aspect to be checked. Basically, this is performed to
save the computational time.
-
8
Run the simulation once with preliminary mesh by setting convergence order to 10^-6 to see if
all the residuals are converging. If they are not converging, refine the mesh and repeat the
process.
Once the convergence criteria are met, refine the mesh globally to have finer cells in the entire
domain. Run the simulation again to see if the residuals are dropping below 10^-6. Comparing
the values from initial and second simulations will give difference of these values. If the
tolerance is acceptable, then the initial mesh was correct enough to extract the result.
If the tolerance values in the second simulation are not within acceptable range, then results
are changing with change in meshing. This means mesh independent solution is not achieved.
Mesh should be refined, and process should be repeated until solution is independent of the
mesh. Finally, the mesh with smallest size that gives mesh independent solution should be used
to computational time.
4.5 Fluent
4.5.1 Model
These simulations involve single-phase and multi-phase. Therefore, normal simulations were
conducted, and Multi-phase is selected to facilitate two fluids flow. “Volume of fluid” type in
multi-phase is chosen because volume fraction of each fluid can be mentioned unlike in other
types. Energy equations need to be activated to input temperature. SST k-ω model is used for
this multiphase coolant flow. It is a variant of standard k-ω model. This combines the original
Wilcox k-ω model for use near walls and the standard k–ε model away from walls using a
blending function, and the eddy viscosity formulation is modified to account for the transport
effects of the principle turbulent shear stress. SST is recommended for high accuracy boundary
layer simulations.

4.5.2 Materials
Necessary fluid and solid materials are defined at this point for use in the next steps. In this
simulation, only air and vegetable oil are used as coolant and lubricant respectively. Uncoated
carbide is used as tool material and the properties are extracted from [5]. If only one solid
material is defined, then there is no need to check which material is assigned to the tool as the
system allots that material by default. Physical and chemical properties of vegetable oil are
taken from [6].
4.5.3 Cell Zone conditions
Cell zone conditions relates to the middle of the grid cells. This involves typically saying which
material is in that cell. Other values like porous resistance and heat sources at locations needed
in the geometry can also be given in this section. As the heat source is taken from [5],
temperature of 1090 K is given as constant heat source.
Fig. 6 Cell zone condition of tool tip, given a constant heat source of 1090 K
4.5.4 Boundary conditions
These are the conditions where fluid enters and leaves the domain, input velocity, pressure or
temperature. Other boundaries are also needed like declaring wall type, inlet and outlet types,
symmetry conditions.
Boundary conditions also depend on type of the physical model employed.
Different boundary conditions taken are as followed:
1. Inlet type - Velocity inlet
2. Outlet type - Pressure outlet
3. Other four walls - Symmetry type

4.5.5 Methods
As soon as multiphase model is selected in combination with “volume of fluid” type, steady
state simulation is changed to pseudo-transient. This combination is automatically detected by
the system. It takes long time to simulate the multiphase model with “volume of fluid” type.
Therefore, system selects pseudo-transient instead of steady state. Pseudo transient is an
accelerated solver for getting steady state solution.
4.5.6 Monitors
In monitors, convergence criteria can be defined for energy, velocity, thermal conductivity,
volume of fluid (VOF), omega and continuity. The less the convergence criteria, the more
accurate the solution is. This is because to reach the minimum convergence criteria, system
executes a greater number of iterations.

Fig: 8 Residual monitors and convergence criteria
4.5.7 Initialization
Before starting any CFD simulation, FLUENT must be provided with an initial "guess'' for the
solution flow field. In many cases, extra care is needed to provide an initial solution that will
allow the desired final solution to be attained.
There are two types of initialization. One is hybrid and other is standard initialization. Hybrid
initialization uses the programmed environment. It solves the Laplace’s equations to determine
pressure, velocity parameters. All others are taken as per the standard program.
Whereas in standard initialization, user should input all the values to define appropriate
environment. These are called initial conditions.
In this simulation, standard initialization is used as all the initial parameters are already known.
After initialization, patching must be done for the fluid volume to ensure that the initial fluid in
the fluid volume is only air.

4.5.8 Running Calculation
Running the calculation until solution is converged gives optimal solution. Means the
temperature distribution along the cutting insert and heat dissipation after introduction of
coolant are accurately modelled in ANSYS system.

5. Results:
5.1 Single-phase simulation: Initially basic simulations were conducted on the specimen with
conditions of ambient temperature coolant and normal velocity and the results observed were
satisfactory. In fact, simulations and experiments on these conditions were already performed
by [5] and mentioned in their research paper. For verification purpose, the same results were
replicated to ensure same procedure is followed. Same results are observed that are in the
paper. Then further modifications were made in single-phase coolant simulations by varying the
coolant temperature from ambient to zero degree, 10 below zero and 20 below zero. The
results observed for single-phase simulation and using air as coolant are as follows.

Simulations for several combination of temperatures and velocities are carried out to check
which combination of temperature and velocity yields better results i.e. lowering the insert
temperature. From the table 1 above, it is evident that the combination of coolant temperature
at -20°C and coolant inlet velocity 10 m/s is giving desired result i.e. lowering/maintaining the
insert temperature below 50°c.
If the plots are observed, there is a significant decrease in the tool temperature for change in
the velocity, for coolant temperature being constant.
Temperature contours, velocity streamlines and graphs can be visualized in the next pages.

5.2 Multi-phase simulation: Multi-phase simulation involves using two types of coolants. Settings are entirely different when multi-phase simulation is activated and steady state solution type changes to pseudo-transient state. Pseudo-transient state is the accelerated solver for getting steady state solution.
When 80% vegetable oil is used as a lubricant aside 20% air as coolant, significant decrease of
insert temperature is observed.
In the same way, results for different combinations of temperature and velocity are recorded
for multiphase simulation where the volume fraction of vegetable oil is 80% and that of air is
20%. Below table shows numbers.
Table 2: Values of insert temperature for different combinations of coolant temperatures
and coolant inlet velocities in multi-phase with 80% veg oil and 20% air.

Evidently, there is significant decrease in the insert temperature during multi-phase coolant
when compared to single-phase coolant and the corresponding temperature values are almost
halved in multi-phase.

5.3 For Multi-Phase 4% Vegetable oil and 96% air combination
As MQL itself suggests minimum Quantity of lubricant, multi-phase simulation for the
composition of 4% vegetable oil and 96% air were also conducted to see the heat dissipation on
the insert. Evidently the effect is not as significant as observed in composition of 80-20 ratio of
vegetable oil and air respectively.
It is observed from the other two combinations that lowering coolant temperature to 10 below
zero and 20 below zero is not much useful. So, in this simulation it is decided to go up to 10
below zero only.

6. Discussion
When single phase and multiphase (80% veg oil and 20% air) results are compared, the
temperature drop is almost doubled in latter case for the same coolant temperature and same
velocities by changing the composition. And there is a difference of 10 degree on an average
observed between the corresponding resultant temperatures of single phase and multiphase
values for velocity of 10 m/s.
In multiphase of 4% veg oil and 96% air combination, significant drop is not observed as seen in
other multiphase combination and single phase. When resultant temperatures for velocity of 1
m/s and 10 m/s are compared between the three combinations from Table 1, Table 2, Table 3 it
is evident that the combination that has lot of oil experienced more temperature drop than the
other two. And the combination with 4% veg oil experienced even less temperature drop than
single phase. Single phase simulation with air as coolant is showing better results than
multiphase simulation with 4% vegetable oil and 96% air as coolants. From the results achieved,
one can infer that changing the composition by increasing the vegetable oil percentage may
lower the insert temperature.

7. Conclusion
As we see from the above results, the drop in the temperature of the insert is very minimum
when the coolant temperature is lowered. But when the inlet velocity of the coolant is
increased, there is a significant drop in the tool. Also, keeping the coolant temperature below
zero doesn’t yield better results. Heat generated during the cutting operation will greatly
influence the life of cutting tool and overall dimensional accuracy of the machined surface.
Cutting fluids are used during machining to absorb heat generated and make the tool last
longer. The model developed is suitable for single-phase and multi-phase simulations and can
be carried out for any material using different types of cutting fluids and for different types of
tool designs. Advanced CFD multiphase models involving mix of more than 2 cutting fluids can
also be designed to estimate the fluid flow and heat transfer between the cutting tools and
cutting fluids for low/high speed cutting operations. Simulations for different compositions of
cutting fluids could be conducted to exactly know how much quantity of each cutting fluid in a
single-phase/multi-phase simulation should be employed for investigating the optimal
conditions to make manufacturing economically and environmentally friendly.
From Table 1, the best combination can be taken as -20°C temperature air and velocity of 10
m/s at which the resultant temperature is 49°C.
From Table 2, the best combination can be taken as -20°C temperature air and velocity of 10
m/s at which the resultant temperature is 45°C. But there is only a difference of 4°C in the
resultant temperature when the resultant temperatures of last two cases are compared. So, it
may not be economical to go for -20°C fluid temperature as it is expensive to store fluids at that
temperatures.
From Table 3, the best combination can be taken as -20°C temperature air and velocity of 10
m/s at which the resultant temperature is 157°C.
Increase in temperatures excite the electrons at the atomic level of any material. These atoms
move from higher energy state to a lower energy state and change in orientation of atomic
planes take place and grain structure also changes. This leads to dimensional change in cutting
tool. As a result, tool life decreases. From the simulation results, as the machining temperature
is decreasing tool life increases.
