Experimental Study on the Interaction of an Impulse Water Jet with Molten Metal
The impingement of a short-duration water jet on a pool of molten Rose’s metal is studied experimentally herein. Short-duration water jet impacting on the free surface of a molten metal pool with a temperature of 300 °C are generated with a pneumatic water delivery system, with two-camera high-speed...

| description | The impingement of a short-duration water jet on a pool of molten Rose’s metal is studied experimentally herein. Short-duration water jet impacting on the free surface of a molten metal pool with a temperature of 300 °C are generated with a pneumatic water delivery system, with two-camera high-speed video registration. A total of 14 experimental series, each containing 5 repeated tests, are performed for a water volume of 0.2–1 mL and a jet impact velocity of 4.1–9.0 m/s. The cavity development in the melt layer is studied, with the main stages described herein. Despite the significantly higher density of melt in comparison with water, the cavity can reach the melt pool bottom; furthermore, its further collapse results in the formation of a central jet rising to the height of a few centimeters. The maximum height of the central jet is shown to depend linearly on the total momentum of the water jet, and a semi-logarithmic correlation is found for the maximum diameter of the cavity. Repeatability analysis is performed within each experimental series, and the relative standard deviation for the melt splash height is shown to be from 8.8% to 26.8%. The effects of the pool depth, the vessel shape, and the water temperature are weaker in the range of the experimental parameters used here. |
