Abstract
Abstract This paper presents a numerical model which simulates the dynamic molten pool formation and the crystal orientations of solidified SX alloy in a multi-layer laser powder deposition process. Based on the mathematical model of coaxial laser direct deposition, the effect of parameters (laser power, scanning speed, powder feed rate) on the tendency to form [001] direction expitaxial grains during solidification was evaluated. In the transient three- dimensional model, physical phenomena including heat transfer, melting, grain formation during solidification, mass addition, and fluid flow in the melt pool, were modeled in a self-consistent manner. The temperature fields, fluid flow velocity, clad geometry (width, height and melt pool depth) and grain formation in melting pool of single layer are predicted.
