Abstract
An infrared thermal imaging camera has been used to measure surface temperatures of a 7075 aluminium alloy deposit during spray deposition. The surface temperature rises rapidly, then remains approximately constant as a pseudosteady thermal state is established, and finally the deposit cools quickly when deposition is complete. The temperature measurements are compared with a numerical model for one dimensional deposit heat flow. PM/0517
