| الوصف: | A new original method, applying a coaxial protective airflow, was tested aiming to improve the pure water jet efficiency in surface layer removal or medium hard materials cutting or blasting. The dual action of the air flow is expected: the air co-flowing the water jet with approximately the same velocity should prevent the central jet from breaking up into tiny droplets in the near field, and simultaneously, it should support jet decomposition into big parts with enough destructive potential in the far-field. A brief survey of the relevant literature dealing with the water jet instability is presented, introducing four recognized breakup regimes. An original cutting head designed to generate a waterjet surrounded by protective coaxial air flow is introduced. The submitted device is supposed to operate within the first wind-induced regime. Two types of experiments, consisting of blasting limestone bricks placed either in the air or underwater, were realized. The depths of kerfs produced with different water pressures and air overpressures were evaluated. While no substantial positive effect was recognized in the air performance, the submerged blasting of the same material under similar conditions appeared to be promising.
