2)Complete step 1)Afterwards, the angle of rake motion flange of second group of pay-off and raw material rod clamp are started, fuel rod presss from both sides Tool clamping fuel rod forward end is advanced, and tip will be first polished into coniform by first fuel rod of every task;
3)Treat that second group of raw material rod clamp clamping fuel rod touches near second group of propeller front end mounting flange center hole Contact Returning switch after, at this moment the raw material rod clamp on first group of angle of rake motion ring flange start start, take over clamping
Fuel rod starts to advance, simultaneously on the motor-driven motion ring flange on second group of angle of rake front end fixed flange Raw material rod clamp return-to-home position;
4)Treat that first group of raw material rod clamp clamping fuel rod touches near first group of propeller front end mounting flange center hole Contact Returning switch after, same principle is returned by motor-driven, removes the fuel rod meeting the second set drive to be again sent into, First group of fuel rod is connected by friction welding (FW) with second group of fuel rod head and the tail end, and friction welding (FW) power is pressed from both sides by first group of fuel rod Tool rotates offer jointly with second group of raw material rod clamp being in the state of closing when returning;
5)Every fuel rod all moves back and forth by this method and completes to be fed, if using welding wire, saving friction welding (FW) and connecting First group of fuel rod and second group of fuel rod step,
6)When the fuel rod that rotation is sent into enters plasma arc generator electrode district, fuel rod is at the plasma arc center of cincture Region, through the instantaneous heating evaporation of high-temperature plasma arc, the plasma-based that nebulizes body, the indifferent gas being blown into along with protective gas import Stream pours flash chamber nozzle, forms quick-fried spray;
7)Reach temporary transient thermodynamic equilibrium state in flash chamber nozzle, it is in spherical shape that surface free energy becomes to making droplet particle, with It is blown into the collecting chamber of flash chamber nozzle exit front end followed by inert gas;
8)Collect chamber outer wall and adopt clad type recirculated water or liquid nitrogen circulating cooling, maintain the temperature at -5 DEG C to 5 DEG C, due to environment Temperature decrease, air pressure, also due to bernoulli principle, have simultaneously formed a draught head, and ambient pressure is less than droplet internal pressure, Further force droplet particle expansion spherical in shape, and the powder that false set is obtained;
9)During shutdown, first stop feed, then by plasma arc generator electrode blow-out, finally stop logical inert gas again, this One order is also applied for equipment downtime maintenance situation.
