Abstract

The performance of the micro nozzle is determined primarily by its machined surface topology and geometric profile. A circular cross-section micro-Laval nozzle is modeled and studied by using numerical simulation in this paper. The real residual height and residual area of machined nozzle surface with ball-end milling cutter are proposed. A micro-Laval nozzle was machined successfully. It is found that the ball end milling cutter with large radius is suitable for finishing operations in the viewpoint of nozzle performance. Moreover, the serial process of drilling and milling has been proved by experiments with which both high-level machining accuracy and performance can meet the nozzle requirement.
