2. How would it overheat? This isn't a machine. It's literally just vials of magical powder. 1-Very punny.

But seriously, how is powder released from the port and onto the blade without most of it getting scattered in the wind?

I mean, that powdered Dust doesn't seem bigger than sand. I would try with salt or sugar to see if it's actually not so likely for it to scatter around, but......my country.

2-Overheat or something. Just wondering. After all, Dust is energy. Elemental energy. Lightning, Ice, Fire....

And whenever Weiss stops being stupid and actually uses that Dust, she uses a lot of it. The actual effect manifests where the Glyphs are, sure, but what happens to the vials? Or the Dust inside those vials?

Consider how the Dust was released a bit just by Weiss shaking them around. And a simple sneeze with that bit of Dust was enough for an explosion. Now consider Weiss's love for dashing around and slashing with that thing.

Maybe the exhaust port is for that: Whatever bit of Dust came out of the vial from swinging the weapon around, is released before it makes the weapon explode at some point.
