Abstract

A procedure for removing metal from a workpiece, comprising: establishing an arc between an electrode and a workpiece; maintaining a vortex or swirling flow of gas around said arc; introducing a vortex flow of liquid, having the same direction as said vortex gas flow, around said gas flow and said arc; directing said arc, said gas flow and said liquid flow through a nozzle and against a workpiece, thereby removing metal from said work piece.
