Abstract The atmospheric chemical vapor deposition process on continuous glass sheets is a well developed one and the parameters that affect it are relatively well understood. When this process is converted to coat discrete glass plates it introduces a new variable, the gap between the glass plates, which can significantly impact the quality of the coatings. In this study a 2D pseudo steady state model of the process was developed to study the effect of the gap, and the ratio of outlet to inlet gas flow rates (called the bias), on the coating quality. The model was solved with the commercially… More >
