Consider the plasma spraying process of Problems 5.25 and 7.75. For a nozzle exit diameter of D = 10 mm and a substrate radius of r = 25 mm, estimate the rate of heat transfer by convection, qconv, from the argon plasma to the substrate, if the substrate temperature is maintained at 300 K. Energy transfer to the substrate is also associated with the release of latent heat, qtar which occurs during solidification of the impacted molten droplets. If the mass rate of droplet impingement is lip = 0.02 kg/s ∙ m2, estimate the rate of latent heat release.
