 Abstract:
This paper focuses on the use of Hydrogen and Nitrogen as the secondary gas types for the TriplexPro-200 gun platform. The paper will include process mapping of particle state in addition to measurements of actual stress states within the coating during coating application. The investigation will focus on yttria stabilized zirconia, nickel aluminum, chromium oxide and nickel chromium aluminum powders. In addition, the paper will provide cost of application analysis including spares parts life data.
