     Coating Simulation Using Ansys Fluent

    Project Description

    In this project, CFD modeling of plasma spray coating using Ansys Fluent is simulated. Regarding the paper entitled “Application and benchmark of SPH for modeling the impact in thermal spraying, “the volume fraction of Titanium Oxide on a wall has to illustrate the material appropriately spread, such as Figure 5 of the article.

    Geometry and Mesh:

    The geometry of the Plasma spray was drawn with Design Modeler software. As mentioned in the article, the computational domain extended 225 micrometers in the X direction, 225 micrometers in the Y direction, and 75 micrometers in the Z direction. Then, the geometry was imported to the Ansys Meshing software and generated 1299934 structure cells.

    Methodology:

    The plasma spray simulation solved transient and pressure-based. The Titanium oxide droplet has a 62-micrometer diameter and is moving with a velocity magnitude of 200 m/s. The VOF multiphase model is employed for the simulation.To simulate titanium, we create a cell region at (0, 0.04, 0 )coordination with a 0.031 mm radius and patch this region as titanium.

    Results

    As the contour below shows, the collision of the droplet with the wall results in its spread over the wall surface. The contour depicts the final state of the titanium oxide droplet. To understand the underlying process, an animation has been extracted and is attached to the report.
