CASTING AND COATING WITH METALLIC PARTICLES

摘要

17 A process and device are described for producing metallic particles utilizing the Coanda Effect to draw one stream of gas toward another stream of gas flowing over a foil. Molten metal is introduced between the two gas streams, and the resulting interaction breaks up the molten metal flow into particles of appropriate size, shape, composition and the like. Various embodiments can be used for the process of producing cast articles, while other versions can be used for the process of coating and deposition of the particles in liquid, solid or partially solidified form onto a substrate.
