Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are essential for improving the heat resistance of materials
operating in high-temperature environments. This paper proposes a new method for …

Suspension plasma spraying process, a relatively new deposition technique in thermal
spray coating, has been increasingly applied to deposit high-quality thermal barrier coatings …

In this study, a three-dimensional DC plasma torch is modeled using Joule effect method to
simulate the plasma jet and its voltage fluctuations. The plasma gas is a mixture of …

Design of a new gear pump requires many considerations to get good pump efficiency. In
order to achieve optimal results, all parameters must be optimized from the design stage. In …

High plasma temperatures in air plasma spraying enable the processing of ceramic powder
particles which have high melting points and low heat conductance. Short dwelling times in …

Existing modeling techniques can determine the heat transfer within idealized spherical
particles with homogenous morphology. Agglomerated particles are not homogenous and …

Plasma spraying is a coating process which is widely used for the application of thermal
barrier coatings. High plasma jet temperatures allow the processing of ceramic material …

As a matter of fact, the cooling method selection is one of the most important steps in the
design of injection mould. However, inappropriate cooling system will result in many …

The non-invasive ventilatory support in the Coronavirus (COVID-19) treatment uses also a
mask as an interface between the medical device and the patient. The choice of this …

Purpose: Plasma spraying is one of the basic methods of coating deposition used in many
branches of industry, especially in aviation and power industry. The process is applied in the …
