Abstract Development of modern high-speed technologies for thermal spraying proves that deposition of high-quality dense coatings requires velocity of sprayed particles to be 600 m/s and above. Plasma spraying is the most versatile and highly productive deposition method of various functional coatings without any limitations on the melting points of the sprayed materials. Present work describes a DC plasma torch designed for operation in a supersonic mode. The supersonic plasma torch features de Laval nozzle, utilization of air as a plasma-forming gas, and annular injection unit for delivery of the powder to the plasma jet. The comparison of NiCr and NiAl coatings deposited both in subsonic and supersonic modes are presented. Methods for further increasing the sprayed particles’velocity and the requirements for their heating temperature are proposed.

A magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model, which describes supersonic plasma flow inside the torch, is presented in this paper. It is a two-dimensional model but includes the K -epsilon model of turbulence, the gas viscous effects and compressible effects. The PHOENICS software is used for solving the governing equations, i.e. the conservation equations of mass, momentum, and energy together with the equations describing the K -epsilon model of turbulence. The calculated arc voltages and gas inflow rates are consistent with the experimental results when arc current and the working gas are the same as experiment. The plasma flow characteristics inside the supersonic plasma torch are analyzed in detail. Temperature, velocity, pressure and Mach number contours are presented to show the flow characteristics. Comparisons between turbulent and laminar models are made in detail also, and the results show the turbulent enhanced momentum and energy transport inside the supersonic plasma torch has little effect on the whole discharge area. The plasma flow inside the supersonic torch is mainly in the laminar state.
