PRICIPLE OF TS
Barrel 1-1.5m long and 20-30 mm Internal dia into which the
gas mixture is injected and ignited by a spark plug
• WC/Co coatings :
- D-Gun coatings have higher degree of retained
carbides
(Due to the reducing atmosphere of the confined
combustion zone in the barrel and the shorter dwell
time)

7-Mar-09 11111 60
PROBLEMS
Power plant components : Pipes and coal boilers
-failures of components due to
(i) Erosion
(ii) Corrosion (oxidation/hot corrosion) &
and combination of (i) and (ii)
Surface modification:
- enhances the life of the components
7-Mar-09 11111 63
HIGH VELOCITY OXY/FUEL
SPRAYING (HVOF)
-a high velocity flame spray process,
gas velocities exceeding Mach 1, 2300 C
7-Mar-09 11111 64
HIGH VELOCITY CONTINOUS COMBUSTION (HVCC)
In an HVCC process the spray material is introduced in wire form and the
wires are melted by creating a supersonic air stream with a plas ma between
them.
The arc also heats an air stream that is accelerated through a n ozzle and
removes the molten wire particles.

SELECTION CRITERIA
7-Mar-09 11111 70
TECHNOLOGICAL PRINCIPLES OF COATINGS
i. Diffusion coatings
- coatings that alter the substrate outer layer by their
contact and interactions with certain metal species
2. Slurry-fusion
7-Mar-09 11111 73
PACK CEMENTATION
- it is a type of vapor deposition process
- in this process, both the component to be coated and the react ants
that combine to form a vapor are contained in an airtight r etort.

THERMAL-BARRIER COATINGS
Typical coatings for high -temperature applications involve an
oxidation resistant coating and a thermal barrier coating (TBC). The
oxidation resistant coating is also called bond coat because it
provides a layer on which the ceramic TBC can adhere.
