Reprinted with permission from the Proceedings of ICSP5. Abstract Shot is thrown from the nozzle by compressed air flow and from the bladed wheel by centrifugal force. Practically, the shot velocity is a important factor of peening intensity. The following functions of shot velocity have been drawn from the equation of motion of shot in nozzle and on blade. On air pressure type, shot velocity is the function of air velocity, density of air and shot, nozzle length and diameter of shot. On centrifugal type, shot velocity is the function of revolutionary speed of wheel and blade length.
