In this study, the blasting nozzle for surface treatment of the curved surface of parts in power plant industry was designed and the cleaning performance was examined through the compressible flow analysis. At this time, the outlet of the curved nozzle was designed as a curved surface along the surface of the part. After the nozzle was made by 3-D printing, the abrasive was sprayed on the surface of the cylindrical specimen and the cleaning performance test was performed. The effective cleaning area obtained after the analysis was similar to the size and shape of the effective cleaning area obtained after the experiment. From this, the validity and effectiveness of the curved nozzle design was confirmed.
