Description

A kind of low-voltage plasma spraying is used plasma gun
Technical field
The present invention relates to the spraying equipment of a kind of spray metal, metal oxide or metal carbides, relate in particular to a kind of plasma gun.
Background technology
Plasma spraying is to utilize electric energy that mists such as argon, hydrogen or helium are changed into high-temperature plasma and in anode, form plasma jet; Utilize its High Temperature And Velocity plasma gas stream that metal or metal oxide, metal carbides are ejected into the surface of workpiece, form the process of coating.The temperature of plasma jet, the distribution character of speed and pressure affect the fusing degree of powder granule in the injected plasma, the porosity of coating and hardness consumingly.And spray gun external plasma temperature and VELOCITY DISTRIBUTION situation not only depend on the design feature of plasma generator, and be relevant with plasma torch exterior circumferential environmental pressure again.Under environment under low pressure pressure, plasma is after the spray gun ejection, and plasma expands rapidly, and along with the reduction of ambient pressure, plasma density reduces, and the plasma free path increases.Plasma is divided according to Knudsen number (Kn) the heat transfer type of powder granule usually, and this dimensionless number is defined as the mean-free-path length λ of gas particle and the ratio of the characteristic dimension L of powder granule, i.e. Kn=λ/L.Plasma density is higher under the atmospheric conditions, and mean-free-path length λ is little, so the Knudsen number is less; General Kn<<1; This moment, the heat transfer of plasma and particle can be thought continuous media, and plasma is high to the powder granule heating efficiency, and it is this that air plasma spraying belongs to.In low pressure or ultralow pressure condition, because plasma density reduces the also corresponding increase of mean-free-path length λ; Kn>>1; At this moment, plasma reduces the powder granule heating efficiency rapidly, adopt discrete Study on processing method plasma and intergranular interaction.
Plasma spraying can be employed in the outside powder feeding of spray tip, from the inboard powder feeding hole powder feeding of nozzle with from three kinds of forms of anode inlet powder feeding.Preceding two kinds of powder are transported in the plasma after the arc root, and the influence of article on plasma arc characteristic is very little; And the anode inlet automatic powder feeding system is before the arc root, and the arc characteristic of article on plasma body is influential.From the stability of spraying and the making simplicity of lance driving device, outer powder feeding is favourable.This mode of air plasma spraying choice of equipment in therefore most industry.But, under low pressure or the ultralow pressure condition, because the outside Kn of spray gun>>1; Adopt outer powder feeding plasma spraying mode, certainly will require plasma gun must have enough big power, for example; Sulzer Metco AG ultralow pressure plasma spraying adopts electric current 2500A; The high-power plasma gun of power 150kW, this not only causes waste of electric energy, also can quicken the corrosion of negative electrode and anode arc.Also there are some low-voltage plasma spray guns to adopt the inboard powder feeding of nozzle; For example United States Patent (USP) 5679167; 5853815 adopt inboard powder feeding spray gun, and the powder feeding meeting of this mode improves the deposition efficiency of powder, but because nozzle and anode are same one; And external nozzles does not partly have water-cooled but, and having limited nozzle can not be oversize.The powder injection phase is nearer from anode export.The spray gun power of at present domestic and international in a word low pressure or ultralow pressure used for plasma spraying is higher than plasma spraying power under the atmospheric conditions far away, and low-voltage plasma spraying is difficult to the material of spraying high-melting-point, lower thermal conductivity as zirconia.From the great advantage of this mode of anode inlet powder feeding is that powder heats, and the deposition efficiency of powder is high in the spraying, and the shortcoming powder is piled up in nozzle interior easily, causes the coating quality problem, and it is fewer that commercial plasma spraying adopts.The inventor had had once designed and produced the internal powder conveying plasma spraying equipment, and Chinese utility model patent ZL99243441.6 and ZL 02251688.3 can spray ZrO under the atmospheric conditions at input power 6-8kW 2-8Y 2O 3Powder body material, and deposition efficiency reaches more than 50%, but because the internal structure design can not adapt to low-voltage plasma spraying.
Summary of the invention
For solving the deficiency of existing internal powder conveying plasma spraying equipment technology; Find through studying us; Under environment under low pressure pressure, the pressure of the outside plasma jet of spray gun reduces behind jet expansion rapidly, and is higher than the spray gun outside at nozzle interior pressure; Belong to Kn<1 in nozzle interior, show that plasma is high to the heating efficiency of powder.According to high this principle of nozzle interior pressure, design is sent powder into nozzle entrance, and is inner at high pressure nozzle, the melting rate of powder is controlled at about 60%, jet expansion further heating reach fusing fully and part evaporation.Can under the situation that does not increase plasma gun power and air inlet body flow, accomplish heating like this to powder granule.Promptly designed a kind of low-voltage plasma spraying and used plasma gun, through changing nozzle interior size, shape; The control plasma is at nozzle interior pressure; Control powder molten state reaches under suitable input power, realizes plasma spraying under low pressure or the ultralow pressure condition.
