Synopsis

This volume covers the traditional aspects of both water and fluid jets, including fluid mechanics, cutting and drilling, abrasive jets, pulse jets, jet manipulation, jet/target interaction, nozzle systems, pumps and intensifiers, surface treatment and cleaning. These techniques have a wide application in a number of different areas, including aerospace, civil engineering, manufacturing, mining and medicine. Among the other issues covered are application opportunities, user requirements, codes of practice, legislation and safety.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

Jet cutting techniques have been successfully applied for many years, and are no longer a new technology. However, with the range of applications expanding, there are a number of important issues emerging, which are addressed in this volume.

The contents of Jet Cutting Technology cover the traditional aspects of both water and fluid jets, including fluid mechanics, cutting and drilling, abrasive jets, pulse jets, jet maniuplation, jet/target interaction, nozzle systems, pumps and intensifiers, surface treatment, and cleaning. These techniques have a wide application in a number of different areas, including aerospace, civil engineering, manufacturing, mining, and medicine, amongst others.

However, of equal importance are thenew issues which are now coming to the fore, including application opportunities, user requirements, Codes of Practice, legislation, safety, and many others.

Jet Cutting Technology can be wholeheartedly recommended to engineers with any interest in, or requirement for, this important and established technology.
