“…Chemical reactions between particles and ambient gas have also been considered with reactions due to diffusion (Vardelle et al, 1996) or convection (Neiser et al, 1998) and also reactions related to self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (Borisova and Borisov, 2008). The injection of a powder with particle size range, and not only a single particle, has also been considered (Samareh and Dolatabadi, 2007;Meillot and Balmigere, 2008), as well as the loading effect due to an increase in the powder feeding rate in RF plasmas (Proulx et al, 1985), in HVOF flame spray (Taylor et al, 2006) (even if with less than 4% of the gas mass flow rate, it can be assumed that the presence of particles will have a negligible effect), and in cold spray (Taylor et al, 2006).
