This work provides a tutorial overview of recent research efforts in modeling and control of
the high-velocity oxygen-fuel (HVOF) thermal spray process. Initially, the modeling of the …

In thermal spraying processes, molten, semi-molten, or solid particles, which are sufficiently
fast in a stream of gas, are deposited on a substrate. These particles can plastically deform …

A hybrid (deterministic/stochastic) fundamental model is proposed for the major physico-
chemical processes involved in an industrial HVOF thermal spray process (Diamond Jet …

The nickel-based alloy Inconel 625 was thermally sprayed by two different variants of the
high velocity oxy-fuel process. In this study, coatings deposited by a liquid-fuelled gun were …

A computational framework is developed for the multiphase flow in a high velocity oxygen-
fuel (HVOF) thermal spray coating process with steel powders as the feedstock. The …

Thermal spraying with the HVOF technology is a well known approach to dense metallic,
ceramic and cermets coatings with good mechanical properties. Any attempt for improving …

In the development of technology to replace chromium and cadmium, WC-12Co powder
deposited by an activated combustion high-velocity air-fuel (AC-HVAF) thermal spraying …

Nanocrystalline WC-Co coatings were deposited by high velocity oxyfuel from commercial
nanostructured composite powders. Processing parameters were optimized for maximal …

Thousands of patents address new coating types, new developments, new chemical
compositions. However, sometimes coatings is still considered as an" art". This book now …

WC-12Co coatings deposited by an activated combustion-high velocity air-fuel (AC-HVAF)
spray process can improve surface quality and prolong the service life of parts. It is of …
