High-velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) spraying technology has been widely used to protect and repair the surface of mechanical parts and extend their service life. Spraying Fe-based amorphous alloy coatings can improve the corrosion resistance and fatigue resistance of the substrate. It is crucial to quantitatively elucidate the influence of process parameters on spraying behavior to achieve high-quality coatings. This study utilized a computational fluid-dynamics model to analyze the flight trajectories of flames and particles during HVOF spraying. Additionally, how parameters such as the O/F ratio, parallel barrel length, Laval nozzle diameter, and nitrogen flow rate affect flame and particle behavior was examined. These parameters were found to significantly impact the overall spraying process. As a result, the optimum structure and properties are obtained. In this study, the spray gun parameters were investigated to provide better guidance for the process and improve the quality and efficiency of the coating system.
