Log-Normal Melt Pulsation in Close-Coupled Gas Atomization [PDF]
High speed photography coupled with sophisticated image analysis has been used to study low-frequency pulsation during close-coupled gas atomization. At high gas pressure the instantaneous melt delivery is described by two superimposed log-normal distributions, one with a high standard deviation but little melt at the atomizer tip, the second with low ...

Estimation of Cooling Rates During Close-Coupled Gas Atomization Using Secondary Dendrite Arm Spacing Measurement [PDF]
Al-4 wt pct Cu alloy has been gas atomized using a commercial close-coupled gas-atomization system. The resulting metal powders have been sieved into six size fractions, and the SDAS has been determined using electron microscopy. Cooling rates for the powders have been estimated using a range of published conversion factors for Al-Cu alloy, with ...
