Surface finishing additive-manufactured (AM) internal channels is challenging. In this study, a novel hydrodynamic cavitation abrasive finishing (HCAF) technique is proposed and its feasibility for surface finishing is analyzed. Surface finishing is performed using controlled hydrodynamic cavitation...
