Abstract

Both the abrasive particle milling effect and the transfer of energy that take place between the water nozzle exit and the slurry nozzle inlet are introduced as criteria that can be applied in the evaluation of the effectiveness of the hydroabrasive cutting head design. This paper presents the results and general conclusions drawn from a test program designed to investigate both of these effects.
