Plasma Jet Stream Simulation for Formation Coating and Powder Manufacturing Processes

Abstract

To carry out a comparative analysis of the parameters of the plasma jet flow, the configurations of the plasmatrons that are most common in industrial practice have been selected. The values of temperature, velocity and intensity of turbulence at the characteristic point are determined depending on the shape of the components of the plasmatrons. Recommendations have been developed for the configuration of technological equipment used in the processes of coating and powder production. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
