Analysis of Studies of the Formation of Multifunctional Coatings by Gas-Dynamic Sawing

Abstract

The article considers a progressive gas-dynamic method for the formation of functional coatings. A theoretical analysis of the methods for applying restorative coatings on the wear of a part was carried out in order to determine the advantages and disadvantages of these methods, the method of gas-dynamic spraying was characterized, and the feasibility of using the technology in industry was determined. This method has a significant advantage over other spraying methods and can be successfully used to improve the performance of units and mechanisms of process equipment. The article determines the optimal size of the sprayed copper and aluminum particles, as well as the required speed for the technological process. The main stages of coating formation by this method are considered. An inspection of modern equipment for gas-dynamic spraying was carried out. A general scheme of the technological process of forming a coating by gas-dynamic spraying has been developed, the dependences of the temperature and velocity of particles depending on the spraying methods have been determined: gas-flame (low-speed); electric arc; gas-flame (high-speed); plasma; detonation; and gas dynamic. The results of calculations and experimental values of the dependence of the speed of aluminum and copper particles on the obstacle surface on the size of these particles are presented. The article defines the typical characteristics of installations for gas-dynamic spraying of powder materials, after which these machines are analyzed to determine the most versatile, cost-effective and efficient installations used in domestic repair departments.
