Prediction of grinding machinability when grind P20 tool steel using water based ZnO nano-coolant

Grinding is often an important finishing process for many engineering components and for some components is even a major production process. The surface roughness, Ra is also an important factor affecting many manufacturing departments. In this study, a model have been developed to find the effect o...
