Modelling and experimental analysis of vacuum plasma spraying. Part I: prediction of initial plasma properties at plasma gun exit

The plasma energy input rate of a de Ar + H-2 plasma jet has been measured experimentally under a series of vacuum plasma spraying (VPS) processing conditions. The plasma energy input rate increased approximately linearly with increasing plasma current and Ar flow rate, increased approximately parab...
