Abstract

A 3-dimensional (3D) thermal distribution computational methodology for laser cladding is presented. Based on the developed model, which considers the latent heat and change of conductivity in different phase, the transient temperature fields for the preplaced laser cladding processing are performed. The effect of processing parameters including laser power, scanning speed and laser spot diameter on melt pool temperature filed was extensively discussed and some conclusions were drawn.
