Abstract
The paper analyzes the scientific and technical information on the process of propagation of a heterophase turbulent jet with particles of the solid phase during electric arc spraying. It has been established that data on determining the parameters of impact and deformation of sprayed particles are currently incomplete, which is of great importance when choosing the optimal temperature-time parameters for the subsequent heat treatment of the formed coatings. The calculation of the main gas-dynamic parameters for electric arc spraying was carried out: the velocity of air and sprayed particles along the jet axis and along its cross section at a spraying distance of 100 mm. It has been established that the air velocity in the initial section of the jet is constant and is about 310 m/s. At a distance of about 35 mm, this section ends and the air velocity begins to decrease and at a spraying distance of 100 mm it is 135 m/s. It is shown that in the initial section of the jet, the sprayed particles are accelerated and reach a maximum velocity of about 80 m/s. With a further increase in the distance from the nozzle exit, the particles gradually lose speed and at a spraying distance of 100 mm it is about 75 m/s. Based on the determination of the surface tension, the average drop size of the Sv-08G2S wire was calculated upon separation from the electrode (214 μm) and on approaching the substrate (82 μm). Taking into account the data obtained, a calculated determination of the deformation degree of the sprayed particles along the spraying spot at a distance of 100 mm was made. It has been established that particles along the flow axis have the highest degree of deformation (about 86 %), which is explained by their high kinetic energy. The average value of the diameter of sprayed particles at a distance of 100 mm was experimentally determined when spraying Sv-08G2S wire (84 µm) into water, which correlates well with the calculated value. A cross section was prepared and the degree of particle deformation along the spray spot was determined. A comparative analysis of the calculated and experimental data on the degree of particle deformation was carried out, which showed the difference between them to be no more than ±1 %.
