AB - Direct numerical simulations (DNS) for axisymmetric plasma jet are developed  to investigate particle plasma spraying process. In this paper we study the  plasma jet and we focus mainly on the plasma-particle ex-changes. Finite  element analysis employing COMSOL Multiphysics software is used in this  simulation. Finally, comparisons are made with the numerically observed  particle Nusselt’s numbers and theoretically predicted Nusselt’s numbers  based on the Ranz-Marshall correlation. The results agree well with those  obtained previously.
