Abstract :
The oxy-propane cutting is often used in many metal-manufacturing processes. The oxygen nozzle is the most important component. This paper presents the structure of oxy-propane cutting torch and influence factor of cutting properties. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation is employed to analyze the flow field property parameters. And cutting ability is estimated according to the discussion results.
