Abstract
Suggested is a mathematical model describing the thermal state of a solid metal wire used as anode in plasma arc spraying of coatings. Contribution of different heat sources to the energy balance of the spraying wire is numerically investigated. The effect of spraying parameters on the distribution of temperature in the wire, melting and evaporation of its material is analysed.
 
 
Keywords: plasma arc spraying, coatings, anode metal wire, thermal state, energy balance, spraying, melting and evaporation conditions
