Abstract
This paper discusses the spray forming method for manufacturing alloys and metal matrix composites. In particular, attention is concentrated on available modelling techniques for the following aspects of spray forming: Atomisation, spray dynamics and heat flow, deposit heat flow, and microstructural development, including porosity, grain size and segregation. In each case, qualitative and quantitative models are outlined, together with discussion of the degree of experimental validation.Keywords
