	abstract = {<p>This study aims to analyse axisymmetric turbulent argon plasma jet charged with particle/droplet stream and its impact characteristics during atmospheric spraying process. The governing partial differential equations are solved using a double population lattice Boltzmann (LB) numerical model (D2Q9-D2Q4) coupled LES turbulence model. The powder dynamics and heating were modeled using a Lagrangian plasma particles interaction model. A validation of the developed LB model on argon plasma jet was done, leading to credible results and the focus was thus mainly made on the plasma particle exchanges during the powder journey in argon plasma. The effects of injection conditions on the spray stream of molten particles and the particles impacting conditions (velocity, temperature, melting rate, ...) are carried out for four selected operating parameters, i.e. particle diameter, injection velocity, injection position (along injector section) and the injection angle at the injector exit. It has been observed that the LB method is a powerful tool for investigating plasma jet flows. It was concluded through the tracking model of the micro-sized particles that the present LB-based results agree well with the FD-based results and that the spray stream depends strongly on the studied injections conditions. Besides, the splashing phenomenon is found to be a rule governing particle/droplet impact behaviors.</p>},

	abstract = {<p>In the present study, we investigate a PSP using the Jets\&amp;Poudres soft. The plasma gas understanding is given to highlight the effects of gas mixtures proportions on diffusion parameters. An overview on the process complexities at main subsystems is given with focus on Argon plasma and optimal mixing; the powder acceleration and heat-up modeling are also presented. Under literature conditions and for He-Ar-H-2 65-30-5\% gas, it was found that the droplet\&$\#$39;s primary way is to coat. The used ternary mixture gives superior efficiency compared to the pure Argon which shows a prior way to rebound. Moreover, medium particles (d(p) approximate to 45 mu m) present the high deposited rate among the splashed mass, a 100\% molten ratio is observed for the small powder and only particles of size below 40.3 mu m have evaporated, particles of initial diameter between 40.3 and 49 mu m are fully molten and all particles above 71.9 mu m are fully solid. The coat formed by the deposited mass will transfer a large amount of heat to the substrate (9-58 MW/m(2)). The crushed particle\&$\#$39;s rate is about 4\% from the investigated number and the average fully molten particle\&$\#$39;s rate is about 72\% and the rest of particles arrive in solid sate.</p>},
