ABSTRACT

A three-dimension discrete element model of the shot blasting machine has been established to study the principles of shots flow motion in shot blasting machine. The three-dimension discrete element method (EDEM) was used to analyse the shot-motion process inside the shot blasting machine. The dynamic law of shots motional process inside shot blasting machine was shown through simulation.
