Developing New Design and Investigating Porous Nozzles for Abrasive Jet Machine

The paper presents a new principle of improving the durability of a nozzle for abrasive jet machine. Results of the study on the manufactured porous element (a part of the new design of abrasive jet nozzle) were presented. Conversion of obtained 2D scan results into 3D with the purpose of computer modelling to simulate the air flow through a porous cylindrical insert was carried out.
