ABSTRACT:
A process and apparatus for producing a spray of atomized metal droplets includes providing an apparatus that forms a spray of molten metal droplets, the apparatus including a metal source and a metal stream atomizer, producing a stream of liquid metal from the metal source, and atomizing the stream of liquid metal with the metal stream atomizer to form the spray of molten metal droplets. A controlled spray of atomized metal droplets is achieved by selectively varying the temperature of the droplets in the spray of molten metal droplets, the step of selectively varying including the step of varying the flow rate of metal produced by the metal source, responsive to a command signal, and sensing the operation of the apparatus and generating the command signal indicative of the operation of the apparatus. The step of atomizing may be accomplished by directing a flow of an atomizing gas at the stream of liquid metal, and then selectively controlling the flow rate of the atomizing gas.
