Numerical modelling of droplet impingement
Spyros Kamnis,Sai Gu +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a droplet impingement model is developed to simulate the transient flow dynamics during impact, spreading and solidification in a fixed Eulerian structured mesh, which is validated with experimental data from tin droplet measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI
3-D modelling of kerosene-fuelled HVOF thermal spray gun
Spyros Kamnis,Sai Gu +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a 3D simulation using mathematical models available in a commercial finite volume CFD code is applied to solve the combustion of kerosene and couple the motion of fuel droplets with the gas flow dynamics in a Lagrangian fashion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical modelling of propane combustion in a high velocity oxygen–fuel thermal spray gun
Spyros Kamnis,Sai Gu +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a computational fluid dynamic (CFD) model is developed to investigate propane combustion in the process of high velocity oxygen-fuel (HVOF) thermal spraying is a relatively new technology compared to other protective coating methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mathematical modelling of Inconel 718 particles in HVOF thermal spraying
Spyros Kamnis,Sai Gu,N. Zeoli +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, mathematical models are developed to predict particle dynamic behavior in a liquid-fuelled high velocity oxy-fuel thermal spray gun, where the particle transport equations are solved in a Lagrangian manner and coupled with the three-dimensional, chemically reacting, turbulent gas flow.
Journal ArticleDOI
Computational simulation of thermally sprayed WC–Co powder
TL;DR: In this paper, the particle transport equations were coupled with the three-dimensional, chemically reacting, turbulent gas flow, and solved in a Lagrangian manner to predict the particle dynamic behavior in a liquid-fuelled HVOF thermal spray gun.
