The formation of a thermal spray coating using an off-normal direction angle for the spray has been analyzed to identify the causes of the large surface roughness of the coating. In the analysis, the string method was used for modeling the formation of the coating. The method uses a string of equally spaced node points to define the shape of the coating surface and to track the change in this shape as the thermal spray mass is deposited. The method allows for the calculation of arbitrary shapes for the coating surface that may be very complex. The model simulates the stochastic deposition of a large number of thermal spray droplets. Experiments were carried out to obtain the data used in the model for the mass flux distribution on the target surface. The data show that when the thermal spray mass impinges on the target surface a large fraction of it, called overspray, splashes off the target and is redeposited with a small direction angle. This component of the deposited mass results in a large coating roughness.
