Abstract:
A new type of nozzle was developed for a shot-peening equipment designed and fabricated for laboratory use. For given peening parameters the overpeening (saturation) effect
using nozzles of different dia. with steel shot of different sizes on medium-carbon steel strips of different thickness were determined. The equipment could also be used
for shot peening condenser tubes to enhance their heat transfer coefficient under nuclear pool boiling. A nozzle with 7.0 mm throat dia. under similar peening conditions
gave overpeening effect after 15, 60 and 90 s for medium-C steel strips of thickness 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 mm, respectively. It was also observed that the thicker the strip the
lesser was the arc height under similar peening conditions. Of shot types S-170, S-280, S-330 and S-390 under similar conditions of peening, S-390 was more effective. The
nozzle with 5.0 mm throat dia. could give overpeening for 1.5 mm thick strip with only one type of shot, i.e. S-330 after 90 s.
