Mathematical Modeling and Experimental Validation of the Warm Spray (Two-Stage HVOF) Process

The warm spray (WS) gun was developed to make an oxidation-free coating of temperature-sensitive material, such as titanium and copper, on a substrate. The gun has a combustion chamber followed by a mixing chamber, in which the combustion gas is mixed with the nitrogen gas at room temperature. The temperature of the mixed gas can be controlled in the range of about 1000-2500 K by adjusting the mass flow rate of nitrogen gas. The gas in the mixing chamber is accelerated to supersonic speed through a converging-diverging nozzle followed by a straight barrel. This paper shows how to construct the mathematical model of the gas flow and particle velocity/temperature of the WS process. The model consists of four parts: (a) thermodynamic and gas-dynamic calculations of combustion and mixing chambers, (b) quasi-one-dimensional calculation of the internal gas flow of the gun, (c) semiempirical calculation of the jet flow from the gun exit, and (d) calculation of particle velocity and temperature traveling in the gas flow. The validity of the mathematical model is confirmed by the experimental results of the aluminum particle sprayed by the WS gun.     

The Correlation Between the Coating Quality and the Moving Direction of the Twin Wire Arc Spraying Gun

Asymmetric melting behavior of the electrodes is a process-related feature of the twin wire arc spraying (TWAS) technique since the heating of the negative wire is different from that of the positive wire. The asymmetric melting behavior, particle crossover, irregular plume shape, and last but not least the arc voltage fluctuations affect the spraying jet on the whole and lead to an inhomogeneous plume. To investigate the effect of inhomogeneous spraying plume on coating characteristics, coatings were produced by moving the spraying gun in different directions, with respect to the electrodes. The porosity, micro-cracks, hardness, thickness, and adhesion strength of the sprayed coatings were measured and brought in correlation with the gun moving direction. In this study, two different wire types were investigated in order to find out the effect of the spraying gun moving direction on the coating quality.

Comparison of Oxidation and Microstructure of Warm-Sprayed and Cold-Sprayed Titanium Coatings

Thick titanium coatings were prepared by the warm spraying (WS) and cold spraying (CS) processes to investigate the oxidation and microstructure of the coating layers. Prior to the coating formations, the temperature and velocity of in-flight titanium powder particles were numerically calculated. Significant oxidation occurred in the WS process using higher gas temperature conditions with low nitrogen flow rate, which is mixed to the flame jet of a high velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) spray gun in order to control the temperature of the propellant gas. Oxidation, however, decreased strikingly as the nitrogen flow rate increased. In the CS process using nitrogen or helium as a propellant gas, little oxidation was observed. Even when scanning electron microscopy or an x-ray diffraction method did not detect oxides in the coating layers produced by WS using a high nitrogen flow rate or by CS using helium, the inert gas fusion method revealed minor increases of oxygen content from 0.01 to 0.2?wt.%. Most of the cross-sections of the coating layers prepared by conventional mechanical polishing looked dense. However, the cross-sections prepared by an ion-milling method revealed the actual microstructures containing small pores and unbounded interfaces between deposited particles.

Configuration optimization of high velocity arc spraying gun

In order to improve the in-flight characteristics of the atomizing droplets during high velocity wire arc spraying (HVAS), some changes have been operated on the original design of the HVAS gun configuration. A comparative study was carried out to investigate the microstructure and properties of the coatings produced by the original design spraying gun and the modified one, using 3Cr13 wires of 3 mm in diameter. The characteristics of their jets were examined during spraying. The results indicate that, the included angle between the two wires and the distance from the nozzle to the meeting point of the two vires may have a strong influence on the characteristics of the in-flight droplets and then the coatings. The jet divergence is found to be lower than that of the original one (about 12° against 25°). By modified gun, the adhesion strength, the microhardness and porosity of the coating deposited by modified gun are increased by 39% and 9% respectively. And the porosity of the coatings is decreased by 57%.     

SiC Coatings for Carbon/Carbon Composites Fabricated by Vacuum Plasma Spraying Technology

SiC coatings for carbon/carbon (C/C) composites have been prepared by the combination process of vacuum plasma spraying technology and heat treatment. The SiC coatings were formed by the reaction of C/C substrates with as-sprayed silicon coatings deposited by vacuum plasma spraying. The preparation temperature and the thickness of original silicon coatings have great influence on the microstructure and the thickness of the synthesized SiC coatings. The results indicated that a continuous and dense SiC coating has been produced on the surface of C/C substrates. The SiC coatings prepared at 2073 K with the silicon coatings of 230 μm thickness, exhibited a low mass loss of 2.56% in the plasma jet with temperature about 2473 K and duration of 420 s in atmosphere. The present results implied that vacuum plasma spraying technology combined with heat treatment was an acceptable method for synthesis of protective SiC coatings for C/C composites.
