Efficient application of minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) in grinding is not only related to grinding conditions and delivery parameters but also affected by spraying atomization characteristics. In this study, a double-outlet nozzle is proposed and the flow field of the MQL grinding is investigated by two-stage atomization model. The side-mixing structure of double-outlet nozzle indicates that the grinding fluid is atomized at the windward side and the flow rate of grinding fluid for a single radial hole is smaller than that for the liquid pipe. Therefore, more excellent atomization perform...
