Ecoenergetics of Cutting Manufacturing Processes

Abstract

Questions of minimizing the effect of cutting manufacturing processes on the environment and human as well as increasing the energy efficiency of these processes
are considered. It is proposed to represent manufacturing processes during their actual implementation in a form of the energy conversion and energy transfer
into the treatment zone. The corresponding energy balance makes it possible to minimize the effect of this process on the environment and human by minimizing
energy loss during its conversion and transfer as well as by minimizing the consumed current (for ac electrical systems). This also accompanied by an
increase in energy efficiency of the implemented manufacturing process. The energy approach to minimizing the effect of manufacturing processes on the environment
and human and to increasing its energy efficiency makes it possible to create a common procedure of lowering this effect for the whole diverse of manufacturing
processes, types and kinds of equipment, using which they are implemented; and to evaluate quantitatively the summary effect and compare manufacturing
processes of various types and kinds by this index.
