Abstract

The article deals with by using numerical analysis of abrasive particle velocity in blast technology. Blasting technology is an important industrial process that allows the application of materials to surfaces using high pressure or air velocity. The velocity of abrasive particles is a key parameter of the blasting process. For the high performance of blasting equipment, it is necessary for the abrasive particles to hit the treated surface at a given angle and speed. The velocity distribution of individual abrasive particles must be as uniform as possible. A two-dimensional FEM model of the interior space of the blasting equipment was created, where the flow of abrasive particles of various sizes was simulated. The numerical simulation was performed for various input parameters, including the use of different shapes of blades of the blast wheel. The obtained results will lead to the design of an innovative blasting device with higher performance.
