Abstract

Strengthening Effect after Disintegration of Stainless Steel Using Pulsating Water Jet

Highlights

Over the years WJs are used for different machining processes such as cutting [1, 2], drilling [3], milling [4,5,6], turning [7] and surface treatment [8]
It was found that the deformation of material was ascertained from the boundary to the outer environment created by pulsating water jet to the inner core of the material
The results indicate that the pressure was the most influential parameter, which was responsible for the deformation strengthening of the material

Summary

INTRODUCTION

Over the years WJs are used for different machining processes such as cutting [1, 2], drilling [3], milling [4,5,6], turning [7] and surface treatment [8]. The application of kinetic energy of the focused liquid stream on a solid material causes the disintegration and removal of the material. This liquid impact on a solid surface occurs in two stages. Liquid behaves in a compressible manner and generates water hammer pressure, which is responsible for the major damage caused during the impact. A few studies have been reported regarding the effect of impact of pulsed water jet with the solid surface [22] but still this area needs to be studied in a broader way in order to utilize this technology beneficially from the economical point of view.
