Cutting with water

in #water6 years ago (edited)

We get the energy required to cut material by compressing the water under extreme pressure to form a high-intensity cutter stream by concentrating the water that moves quickly through a small hole made of precious stone.

There are two main steps to complete the naphtha cutting process:

A servo pump is typically used to compress ordinary tap water to pressures of more than 50,000 psi (psi) to produce the required power for cutting. The water is then concentrated through a small hole made of precious stone to form a very strong cut-off stream. This flow speeds more than three times the speed of the sound , Depending on the amount of pressure exerted.

A slow-motion video shows the destruction of wheels of a skateboard by water pressure of 60,000 psi.
