Description
Summary:The results of mathematical model development for evaluation of thermal state of spherical particles of powder composition equally treated in the technology of selective laser melting are presented. This model considers: features of laser irradiation energy transfer to the particles having smaller size but comparable with the size of radiation spot diameter; energy transfer through the sphere upper half; material melting in the solidus and liquidus range; possibility of surface material evaporation and dependence of material thermophysical parameters on temperature. This model is adapted to be used in standard finite-element software ANSYS Transient Thermal that has been applied for numerical simulation using powder of heat-resistant nickel-chromium alloy. Process regularities have been discovered, and it was shown that the range value of particles size scatter of powder composition fraction used determines principle possibility of choosing laser treatment mode to provide high quality material after melting.
