Abstract A simplified 2D pseudo steady state model was developed for an atmospheric chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process on glass. This is used to study the feasibility of converting a continuous coating process to one with discrete glass plates with a gap between them. A preliminary estimate employing mass transfer correlations suggested that there would be significant concentration variations due to the gap between the plates. More detailed studies were done by solving the model numerically employing a finite difference scheme with a vorticity-stream function formulation, and employing the commercial computational fluid dynamics program FIDAP which… More >
