摘要
A multiphase and multi-physics model is developed for the selective laser melting process, where fluid flow, lidification, and heat transfer are included. The discrete-element and volume-of-fluid methods are applied generate the powder bed and capture the free surface of the melts, respectively. Physical behaviors like surface tension, Marangoni effect, vapor recoil, and radiation are considered. A strategy that the heat source is allowed adaptively following the free surface of a molten pool along with power leakage-free is developed for the moving laser. The fundamental characteristics of the molten pool and solidified tracks are found and analyzed. The remolten region between two neighboring tracks in the horizontal and vertical directions is predicted, and effects of the scanning spacing and laser power on the width and depth of the remolten region are investigated. The results indicate that both the dimensions of the molten pool and remolten region depend on the process rameters anisotropically, varying the laser energy input could change the dynamic regime of a molten pool, and the pore defect can appear between adjacent tracks when using a large scanning spacing.
