“…For the power spectral method, after each image line is processed by Fourier transform, its power spectrum is calculated and then average values of these power spectra are obtained. Unfortunately, this calculation needs great time and requires gridded data [28]. For the structure function method, it is often used to estimate the fractal dimensions of an isotropic surface, where its value is one plus the fractal dimension of profile through the surface in any direction [29].…”

“…The MWCNT and SAE20W40 oil improved its surface quality to Nano level from micro level. [42] extended the study on surface characteristic of AISI D2 tool steel in grinding process but using SWCNTs in SAE20W40 oil base fluid as the Nano lubricant. The fractal dimension and surface roughness were measured.…”

Abstract. This paper reviews the recent progress and applications of nanoparticles in lubricants as a coolant (cutting fluid) for grinding process. The role of grinding machining in manufacturing and the importance of lubrication fluids during material removal are discussed. In grinding process, coolants are used to improve the surface finish, wheel wear, flush the chips and to reduce the work-piece thermal deformation. The conventional cooling technique, i.e., flood cooling delivers a large amount of fluid and mist which hazardous to the environment and humans. Industries are actively looking for possible ways to reduce the volume of coolants used in metal removing operations due to the economical and ecological impacts. Thus as an alternative, an advanced cooling technique known as Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL) has been introduced to the enhance the surface finish, minimize the cost, to reduce the environmental impacts and to reduce the metal cutting fluid consumptions. Nanofluid is a new-fangled class of fluids engineered by dispersing nanometre-size solid particles into base fluids such as water, lubrication oils to further improve the properties of the lubricant or coolant. In addition to advanced cooling technique review, this paper also reviews the application of various nanoparticles and their performance in grinding operations. The performance of nanoparticles related to the cutting forces, surface finish, tool wear, and temperature at the cutting zone are briefly reviewed. The study reveals that the excellent properties of the nanofluid can be beneficial in cooling and lubricating application in the manufacturing process.

“…Experiments showed that the mixture of SAE20W40 and MWCNT produces a minimum R a value (0.057 µm), and the quality of the surface is improved as well. Furthermore, Prabhu and Vinayagam [112] again investigated the grinding performance of the tool steel with atomic force microscopy by applying nanofluid for grinding of CBN diamond-bonded wheel. While grinding with nanofluid, fractal dimension and roughness RMS were found to decrease due to the use of carbon nanotube-based cutting fluid.…”

In metal removal processes, the role of cooling and lubricating fluid is very crucial for improving the performance of machining. When metallic and non-metallic nanoparticles (less than 100 nm) are added to the base fluid, it is termed as a nanofluid. Due to excellent heat-carrying capacity, lubrication and rheological properties, nanofluids have gained immense importance for growing research activities. Researchers are also exploring synthesis and newer application of nanofluids. In the process, scientists are trying to develop new types of nano-cutting fluids, which are economic and eco-friendly. In this connection, investigations are also underway to find out possible mechanisms for improving cooling and lubricating properties of nanofluids. This paper presents a summary of published literature on the application of nano-enriched cutting fluid in various conventional metal removal processes, such as turning, milling, drilling and grinding. This paper also discusses the effects of different nano-enriched cutting fluids on various metal removal processes and factors influencing their process performance.
