Abstract

The relationship between the evolution of microstructure morphology (planar, cellular, columnar and equiaxed) and grain size (2.5 μm, 5.0 μm, 7.5 μm and 10.0 μm) of a specified metal and the calculated solidification parameter (G/R, G × R) of temperature gradient (G) and solidification rate (R) is calculated by comparing the “solidification process percentage” of the welding experiment and simulation. Taking pulsed laser single spot welding as the object, the varying solidification parameters and corresponding microstructure of liquid–solid interface are obtained by adjusting the pulsed closing shapes. The results show that the calculating method of the solidification parameter threshold of the welding microstructure evolution by using the solidification process percentage is reliable and the evolution threshold of microstructure morphology and the grain size of AZ31 magnesium alloy are obtained. The research lays a theoretical and practical foundation for the establishment of the solidification parameter threshold system of the welding microstructure evolution.
