Numerical Study on the Thermal Model of High Power Density Welding

고에너지 밀도용접의 온도특성에 관한 수치해석적 연구

A numerical study was performed to investigate the flow field and the heat transfer characteristics occurring in high power density welding which is important in many fields of engineering applications. A two dimensional quasi-steady state of keyhole welding model is simulated by using the finite volume methods. It is shown that the shape of isothermal line is elliptic and the temperature gradient is very steep compared with other welding method and the welding speed has on welding width and observed beam power.
