Problems solved by technology

Lack of a clear understanding of the nature of the interaction between the gas and the arc during start-up and operation limits the ability to formulate solutions to the problem
Similar problems are expected in the neutral section of extended cascaded plasma guns and are rarely tested

Abstract

Plasma gun and method of applying powder to a substrate with a plasma gun. The plasma gun includes a cathode assembly (1), an anode (2), a rear neutrode (7), and an extended neutrode (8) positioned adjacent the rear neutrode (7) to define a channel bore (3) between the cathode assembly (1) and the anode (2). The extended neutrode (8) has a length greater than 38 mm. The plasma gun can also include at least one gas inlet to supply a gas to the channel bore (3) and a power supply.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] not applicable. [0003] Statement Regarding Federally Sponsored Research or Development [0004] not applicable. [0005] References to CD-ROM accessories [0006] not applicable. technical field [0007] The present invention relates to plasma guns and, in particular, to extended cascaded plasma guns for plasma spray deposition of powders onto substrates. Background technique [0008] When developing plasma guns, designers and engineers try to achieve the highest possible gun voltage to allow high power levels while maintaining the lowest possible current. Conventional plasma guns have limited voltage capability due to gun geometry, and use high potential assist gases to increase voltage and to increase other plasma characteristics, such as high enthalpy. [0009] The ability to prolong the cascade of the plasma arc within the plasma gun is limited by the total potential to complete the arc circuit from cathode ...
