  • Abstract
    A three-dimensional symmetrical impinging jet model of laser cutting is established, and the numerical simulation is put up to investigate the effect of workpiece thickness on flow field in cutting slot. In the end, two typical subsonic nozzles are designed for the cutting experiment.
