Abstract

Abstract:

Electrochemical machining (ECM) is an important processing technology in aerospace industry to produce blisks. The stability of the flow field is a critical factor which affects the ECM process accuracy and the surface quality of the blades. This paper analyzes the insufficient fluid of the traditional flow mode in electrochemical machining of blisks. A new electrolyte flow mode, the "3D complex flow mode", is proposed to machine blisks. There are three electrolyte inlets in this flow mode, which allow flows into the leading edge of the blade, the root of the concave blade and the root of the convex blade. The electrolyte outlet is near the exhaust edge of the blade. The flow mode is analyzed by the finite element method. The results demonstrate that flow field stability is enhanced with this flow mode. An evaluation of the flow state in the processing area indicates that this mode is able to meet the requirements of ECM. Experimental investigations are carried out in order to evaluate the feasibility of the flow mode. The results show that machining efficiency is improved significantly with this flow mode. The processing experiment for the section part of a blisk is carried out by using the 3D complex flow mode. The test specimens exhibit better processing repeatability and surface quality.
