Two-Phase Jet in Process of Pneumatic Powder Injection into Liquid Alloy

Abstract:

The short description of the new approach to the pneumatic powder injection process analysis was presented in the article. The experiments with the high speed camera recording of the two-phase jet in pneumatic powder injection process were carried out in the Department of Foundry, Silesian University of Technology, Poland. The results were briefly analyzed and some interesting conclusions appeared, especially that the real velocity of the injected particles is far less than it is normally calculated with use of the well-known formulas. They were compared with existing literature data as well as with some experimentspreviously made by authors. Powder particles velocity and two-phase jet mass concentration were analyzed as the most important parameters for powder injection process. The results described are part of the complex experimental plan and the next step is computer modeling (just launched) of the jet introducing liquid.
