Abstract

The objectives of this work are to study Laser Engineered Net Shaping (LENS TM ) produced materials and iden- tify the microstructures. Numerical method was used to examine the influence of materials' type and LENS TM process pa- rameters on the forming of the specific microstructures from thermodynamics and fluid dynamics point of view. Samples of 316L stainless steel were examined, microstructures of samples were used to estimate the corresponding cooling rate, and the cooling rate was compared with the results of three different levels of simplified models.
