Impact of Toolpath Pitch Distance on Cutting Tool Nose Radius Deviation and Surface Quality of AISI D3 Steel Using Precision Measurement Techniques.

The selection of the right tool path trajectory and the corresponding machining parameters for end milling is a challenge in mold and die industries. Subsequently, the selection of appropriate tool path parameters can reduce overall machining time, improve the surface finish of the workpiece, extend tool life, reduce overall cost, and improve productivity. This work aims to establish the performance of end milling process parameters and the impact of trochoidal toolpath parameters on the surface finish of AISI D3 steel.

Impact of water depth on thermal efficiency, exergy efficiency, and exergy losses of finned acrylic solar still: an experimental study.

This paper presents a complete exergy analysis and exergy destruction of a finned acrylic solar still (SS) at 1, 2, and 3 cm salt water depth (W). The coefficients of heat transfer of salt water-glass have been computed for evaporative, convective, and radiant heat transfer. Also, thermal efficiency, exergy loss of basin, saltwater, and glass was determined.
