Topology optimization of fluid cooling systems for machine tools

Research output: Contribution to conferencesPaperContributedpeer-review

Abstract

Fluid cooling systems for machine tools commonly
operate with a constant speed drive pump and manual valves.
The volume flow rate for cooling the components is set to a
fixed value during commissioning and is not changed by the user
during operation. Recent research propose temperature control
for machine tools. This requires variable speed drive pumps or
proportional valves. A major obstacle to implementing such a
system are material costs. This paper presents a method for
designing such a systems with minimal costs.
