    摘要: An induction plasma torch comprises a tubular torch body, a tubular insert, a plasma confinement tube and an annular channel. The tubular torch body has upstream and downstream sections defining respective inner surfaces. The tubular insert is mounted to the inner surface of the downstream section of the tubular torch body. The plasma confinement tube is disposed in the tubular torch body, coaxial therewith. The plasma confinement tube has a tubular wall having a thickness tapering off in an axial direction of plasma flow. The annular channel is defined between, on one hand, the inner surface of the upstream section of the tubular torch body and an inner surface of the insert and, on the other hand, an outer surface of the tubular wall of the plasma confinement tube. The cooling channel carries a fluid for cooling the plasma confinement tube.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a process and an apparatus for producing powder particles by atomization of a feed material in the form of an elongated member such as a wire, a rod or a filled tube. The feed material is introduced in a plasma torch. A forward portion of the feed material is moved from the plasma torch into an atomization nozzle of the plasma torch. A forward end of the feed material is surface melted by exposure to one or more plasma jets formed in the atomization nozzle. The one or more plasma jets being includes an annular plasma jet, a plurality of converging plasma jets, or a combination of an annular plasma jet with a plurality of converging plasma jets. Powder particles obtained using the process and apparatus are also described.

    摘要: A plasma confinement tube for use in an induction plasma torch is disclosed. The plasma confinement tube defines a geometrical axis and an outer surface. The plasma confinement tube includes a capacitive shield comprising a film of conductive material applied to the outer surface of the plasma confinement tube and segmented into axial strips. The axial strips are interconnected at one end. Axial grooves are machined in the outer surface of the plasma confinement tube, and interposed between the axial strips. The conductive film may have a thickness smaller than a skin-depth calculated for a frequency of operation of the induction plasma torch and an electrical conductivity of the conductive material of the film.

    摘要: An induction plasma torch comprises a tubular torch body, a plasma confinement tube disposed in the tubular torch body coaxial therewith, a gas distributor head disposed at one end of the plasma confinement tube and structured to supply at least one gaseous substance into the plasma confinement tube; an inductive coupling member for applying energy to the gaseous substance to produce and sustain plasma in the plasma confinement tube, and a capacitive shield including a film of conductive material applied to the outer surface of the plasma confinement tube or the inner surface of the tubular torch body. The film of conductive material is segmented into axial strips interconnected at one end. The film of conductive material has a thickness smaller than a skin-depth calculated for a frequency of a current supplied to the inductive coupling member and an electrical conductivity of the conductive material of the film.
