Superalloys such as Inconel 718 suffer severe thermo-mechanical damage during grinding due to inherent low thermal conductivity and high interfacial friction, critically degrading surface integrity and fatigue life. To address this, an integrated tribo-regulation strategy combining internal-cooling wheels, self-lubricating abrasive rings, and water-based BNNs/MWCNTs Composite nanofluids is proposed. The geometric shape of the flow channel (with a 15° nozzle angle) was optimized through computational fluid dynamics (CFD), which resulted in an increase in the peak velocity of the coolant outlet. Tribological characterization confirmed that the nanofluid reduced the friction coefficient by 40.6 % versus conventional coolant, while synergistic self-lubrication further lowered it to 0.127. Experimentally, this strategy suppressed grinding temperature by up to 34.3 % and surface roughness by 37.6 %. It also reduced work hardening by 11.2 % while enhancing residual compressive stress by 41.6 %. Crucially, the "bearing-like" rolling effect of BNNs/MWCNTs nanoparticles and continuous lubricating films from self-lubrication minimized ploughing and adhesion. Compared with conventional internal-cooling grinding, the low-cycle fatigue life increased to 4026 cycles—a 127.1 % improvement—attributed to stress concentration suppression and crack propagation delay. This integrated nanofluid internal-cooling self-lubricating grinding (INISG) strategy is highly recommended for high-integrity machining of aerospace superalloys, offering a sustainable pathway for enhancing component reliability and service life.
