Numerical simulation of herringbone gear abrasive flow machining

The Eulerian-Eulerian method is used to numerically simulate herringbone teeth using the precision machining technique of abrasive flow. The effects of inlet velocity and abrasive concentration factors on abrasive flow machining are investigated separately for numerical analysis to reveal the effects of dynamic pressure and wall shear on abrasive flow machining under different machining parameters. The simulation results show that increasing the inlet velocity can improve the processing efficiency and the processing effect of abrasive flow processing. Increasing the abrasive concentration increases the processing cost and predicts a weakening of the abrasive flow, allowing for the use of lower concentrations of abrasive flow for actual processing.
