Abstract

In this work, we used the cold spray process to coat a surface and investigated to understand the influence of various process parameters on the substrate surface temperature. The parameters we varied included the pressure, temperature, particle size, and particle speed of the titanium powder that we used in the cold spray coating process. It is a unique finding in the field of cold spray coating. For the substrate material, we chose steel and simulated the spray geometry using a two-dimensional axisymmetric model. This model employed a k-ɛ turbulence model with an implicit pressure-based solver of second-order precision. Our observations revealed that the surface temperature of the substrate reached its maximum value when the length of the injector was 15 mm. We also found that the most compatible length for the nozzle barrel was equal to the length of the particle injector.
