By retrospect...The Tibetan Plateau(TP) has powerful dynamics and thermal effects, which makes the interaction between its land and atmosphere significantly affect climate and environment in the regional or global area. By retrospecting the latest research progress in the simulation of land-surface processes(LSPs) over the past 20 years, this study discusses both the simulation ability of land-surface models(LSMs) and the modification of parameterization schemes from two perspectives, the models' applicability and improved parameterization schemes. Our review suggests that different LSMs can well capture the spatiotemporal variations of the physical quantities of LSPs; but none of them can be fully applied to the plateau, meaning that all need to be revised according to the characteristics specific to the TP. Avoiding the unstable iterative computation and determining the freeze-thaw critical temperature according to the thermodynamic equilibrium equation, the unreasonable freeze-thaw parameterization scheme can be improved. Due to the complex underlying surface of the TP, no parameterization scheme of roughness length can well simulate the various characteristics of the turbulent flux over the TP at different temporal scales. The uniform soil thermodynamic and hydraulic parameterization scheme is unreasonable when it is applied to the plateau, as a result of the strong soil heterogeneity. There is little research on the snow-cover process so far,and the improved scheme has no advantage over the original one due to the lack of some related physical processes. The constant interaction among subprocesses of LSPs makes the improvement of a multiparameterization scheme yield better simulation results. According to the review of existing research, adding high-quality observation stations, developing a parameterization scheme suitable for the special LSPs of the TP, and adjusting the model structures can be helpful to the simulation of LSPs on the TP.展开更多

Land-surface schemes have been demonstrated to be crucial to numerical weather predictions.However, few studies have explored the impact of land surface schemes on short-range high-temperature weather forecasts via operational numerical weather prediction models. To evaluate the impact of the soil thermal process on high-temperature weather forecasts, we coupled the soil thermal process of the state-of-the-art Common Land Model(CoLM) with the South China operational numerical weather prediction model(CMA-TRAMS) and compared the coupled model with the original CMA-TRAMS, which incorporated the Simplified Model for land Surface(SMS). Contrast experiments based on two versions of CMA-TRAMS were conducted for the year 2022 when persistent extreme heatwaves were observed in Central-East China. The results are as follows:(1) Short-range high-temperature weather forecasts were sensitive to soil thermal process schemes. The original CMA-TRAMS clearly underestimated the summertime near-surface air temperature(T2m) over almost all areas of China, whereas the CoLM led to a reduction of the negative biases by approximately 0.5°C.(2) The more accurate initial soil temperatures and the deeper soil structure used in the CoLM test contributed to actual predictions of soil heat flux, soil temperature, and T2m. Nevertheless, the SMS test failed to capture upward heat transport from deeper to shallower soil layers at night due to the shallow soil structure and lower accuracy of the bottom and initial soil temperatures.(3) Higher soil temperatures resulted in increased near-surface moisture and cloud cover in the CoLM test, which led to the warmer soil and further mitigated the cold biases of T2m through reduced longwave and shortwave radiation losses at the land surface.展开更多

The processing maps at different strains were then constructed based on the dynamic materials model, and the hot compression process parameters and deformation mechanism were optimized and analyzed, respectively. The results show that the processing maps exhibit two domains with a high efficiency of power dissipation and a flow instability domain with a less efficiency of power dissipation. The types of domains were characterized by convergence and divergence of the efficiency of power dissipation, respectively. The convergent domain in a＋fl phase field is at the temperature of 950-990 ℃ and the strain rate of 0.001-0.01 s^-1, which correspond to a better hot compression process window of α＋β phase field. The peak of efficiency of power dissipation in α＋β phase field is at 950 ℃ and 0.001 s 1, which correspond to the best hot compression process parameters of α＋β phase field. The convergent domain in β phase field is at the temperature of 1020-1080 ℃ and the strain rate of 0.001-0.1 s^-l, which correspond to a better hot compression process window of β phase field. The peak of efficiency of power dissipation in ℃ phase field occurs at 1050 ℃ over the strain rates from 0.001 s^-1 to 0.01 s^-1, which correspond to the best hot compression process parameters of ,8 phase field. The divergence domain occurs at the strain rates above 0.5 s^-1 and in all the tested temperature range, which correspond to flow instability that is manifested as flow localization and indicated by the flow softening phenomenon in stress-- strain curves. The deformation mechanisms of the optimized hot compression process windows in a＋β and β phase fields are identified to be spheroidizing and dynamic recrystallizing controlled by self-diffusion mechanism, respectively. The microstructure observation of the deformed specimens in different domains matches very well with the optimized results.展开更多

No significant out to investigate the effects of process parameters on mechanical properties and creep aging process. The results show that creep strain and creep rate increase with the applied stress. The hardness of specimen varies with aging time and stress in a effect of temperature on hardness of material is seen in the range of 185-195 ℃. The optimum mechanical properties are obtained at the conditions of （200 MPa, 185 ℃, 8 h） as the result of the coexistence of strengthening S＂ and S＇ phases in the matrix by transmission electron microscopy （TEM）. TEM observation shows that applied stress promotes the formation and growth of precioitates and no obvious stress orientation effect is observed in the matrix.展开更多

文摘A modified three-dimensional turbulence parameterization scheme,implemented by replacing the conventional eddydiffusivity formulation with the H-gradient model,has shown good performance in representing the subgrid-scale(SGS)turbulent fluxes associated with convective clouds in idealized tropical cyclone(TC)simulations.To evaluate the capability of the modified scheme in simulating real TCs,two sets of simulations of TC Soudelor(2015),one with the modified scheme and the other with the original scheme,are conducted.Comparisons with observations and coarse-grained results from large eddy simulation benchmarks demonstrate that the modified scheme improves the forecasting of the intensity and structure,as well as the SGS turbulent fluxes of Soudelor.Using the modified turbulence scheme,a TC with stronger intensity,smaller size,a shallower but stronger inflow layer,and a more intense but less inclined convective updraft is simulated.The rapid intensification process and secondary eyewall features can also be captured better by the modified scheme.By analyzing the mechanism by which turbulent transport impacts the intensity and structure of TCs,it is shown that accurately representing the turbulent transport associated with convective clouds above the planetary boundary layer helps to initiate the TC spin-up process.

文摘Silicone material extrusion(MEX)is widely used for processing liquids and pastes.Owing to the uneven linewidth and elastic extrusion deformation caused by material accumulation,products may exhibit geometric errors and performance defects,leading to a decline in product quality and affecting its service life.This study proposes a process parameter optimization method that considers the mechanical properties of printed specimens and production costs.To improve the quality of silicone printing samples and reduce production costs,three machine learning models,kernel extreme learning machine(KELM),support vector regression(SVR),and random forest(RF),were developed to predict these three factors.Training data were obtained through a complete factorial experiment.A new dataset is obtained using the Euclidean distance method,which assigns the elimination factor.It is trained with Bayesian optimization algorithms for parameter optimization,the new dataset is input into the improved double Gaussian extreme learning machine,and finally obtains the improved KELM model.The results showed improved prediction accuracy over SVR and RF.Furthermore,a multi-objective optimization framework was proposed by combining genetic algorithm technology with the improved KELM model.The effectiveness and reasonableness of the model algorithm were verified by comparing the optimized results with the experimental results.

文摘Mg–3Nd–0.2Zn–0.4Zr(NZ30K,wt.%)alloy is a new kind of high-performance metallic biomaterial.The combination of the NZ30K Magnesium(Mg)alloy and selective laser melting(SLM)process seems to be an ideal solution to produce porous Mg degradable implants.However,the microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of the SLMed NZ30K Mg alloy were not yet studied systematically.Therefore,the fabrication defects,microstructure,and mechanical properties of the SLMed NZ30K alloy under different processing parameters were investigated.The results show that there are two types of fabrication defects in the SLMed NZ30K alloy,gas pores and unfused defects.With the increase of the laser energy density,the porosity sharply decreases to the minimum first and then slightly increases.The minimum porosity is 0.49±0.18%.While the microstructure varies from the large grains with lamellar structure inside under low laser energy density,to the large grains with lamellar structure inside&the equiaxed grains&the columnar grains under middle laser energy density,and further to the fine equiaxed grains&the columnar grains under high laser energy density.The lamellar structure in the large grain is a newly observed microstructure for the NZ30K Mg alloy.Higher laser energy density leads to finer grains,which enhance all the yield strength(YS),ultimate tensile strength(UTS)and elongation,and the best comprehensive mechanical properties obtained are YS of 266±2.1 MPa,UTS of 296±5.2 MPa,with an elongation of 4.9±0.68%.The SLMed NZ30K Mg alloy with a bimodal-grained structure consisting of fine equiaxed grains and coarser columnar grains has better elongation and a yield drop phenomenon.

文摘The relationships between the selective laser melting(SLM)processing parameters including laser power,scanning speed and hatch space,the relative density,the microstructure,and resulting mechanical properties of Ti-6Al-2Zr-1Mo-1V alloy were investigated in this work.The result shows that laser power acts a dominant role in determining the relative density in comparison with scanning speed and hatch space.The optimal SLM process window for fabricating relative density>99%samples is located in the energy density range of 34.72 J·mm^(-3)to 52.08 J·mm^(-3),where the laser power range is between 125 W and 175 W.An upward trend is found in the micro-hardness as the energy density is increased.The optimum SLM processing parameters of Ti-6Al-2Zr-1Mo-1V alloy are:laser power of 150 W,scanning speed of 1,600 mm·s^(-1),hatch space of 0.08 mm,and layer thickness of 0.03 mm.The highest ultimate tensile strength,yield strength,and ductility under the optimum processing parameter are achieved,which are 1,205 MPa,1,099 MPa,and 8%,respectively.The results of this study can be used to guide SLM production Ti-6Al-2Zr-1Mo-1V alloy parts.

文摘The Tibetan Plateau(TP) has powerful dynamics and thermal effects, which makes the interaction between its land and atmosphere significantly affect climate and environment in the regional or global area. By retrospecting the latest research progress in the simulation of land-surface processes(LSPs) over the past 20 years, this study discusses both the simulation ability of land-surface models(LSMs) and the modification of parameterization schemes from two perspectives, the models' applicability and improved parameterization schemes. Our review suggests that different LSMs can well capture the spatiotemporal variations of the physical quantities of LSPs; but none of them can be fully applied to the plateau, meaning that all need to be revised according to the characteristics specific to the TP. Avoiding the unstable iterative computation and determining the freeze-thaw critical temperature according to the thermodynamic equilibrium equation, the unreasonable freeze-thaw parameterization scheme can be improved. Due to the complex underlying surface of the TP, no parameterization scheme of roughness length can well simulate the various characteristics of the turbulent flux over the TP at different temporal scales. The uniform soil thermodynamic and hydraulic parameterization scheme is unreasonable when it is applied to the plateau, as a result of the strong soil heterogeneity. There is little research on the snow-cover process so far,and the improved scheme has no advantage over the original one due to the lack of some related physical processes. The constant interaction among subprocesses of LSPs makes the improvement of a multiparameterization scheme yield better simulation results. According to the review of existing research, adding high-quality observation stations, developing a parameterization scheme suitable for the special LSPs of the TP, and adjusting the model structures can be helpful to the simulation of LSPs on the TP.

文摘Intermetallic formation in sludge during magnesium(Mg)melting,holding and high pressure die casting practices is a very important issue.But,very often it is overlooked by academia,original equipment manufacturers(OEM),metal ingot producers and even die casters.The aim of this study was to minimize the intermetallic formation in Mg sludge via the optimization of the chemistry and process parameters.The Al8Mn5 intermetallic particles were identified by the microstructure analysis based on the Al and Mn ratio.The design of experiment(DOE)technique,Taguchi method,was employed to minimize the intermetallic formation in the sludge of Mg alloys with various chemical compositions of Al,Mn,Fe,and different process parameters,holding temperature and holding time.The sludge yield(SY)and intermetallic size(IS)was selected as two responses.The optimum combination of the levels in terms of minimizing the intermetallic formation were 9 wt.%Al,0.15 wt.%Mn,0.001 wt.%(10 ppm)Fe,690℃ for the holding temperature and holding at 30 mins for the holding time,respectively.The best combination for smallest intermetallic size were 9 wt.%Al,0.15 wt.%Mn,0.001 wt.%(10 ppm)Fe,630℃ for the holding temperature and holding at 60 mins for the holding time,respectively.Three groups of sludge factors,Chemical Sludge(CSF),Physical Sludge(PSF)and Comprehensive Sludge Factors(and CPSF)were established for prediction of sludge yields and intermetallic sizes in Al-containing Mg alloys.The CPSF with five independent variables including both chemical elements and process parameters gave high accuracy in prediction,as the prediction of the PSF with only the two processing parameters of the melt holding temperature and time showed a relatively large deviation from the experimental data.The Chemical Sludge Factor was primarily designed for small ingot producers and die casters with a limited melting and holding capacity,of which process parameters could be fixed easily.The Physical Sludge Factor could be used for mass production with a single type of Mg alloy,in which the chemistry fluctuation might be negligible.In large Mg casting suppliers with multiple melting and holding furnaces and a number of Mg alloys in production,the Comprehensive Sludge Factor should be implemented to diminish the sludge formation.

文摘In order to improve the sealing surface performance of gray cast iron gas gate valves and achieve precise molding control of the cladding layer,as well as to reveal the influence of laser cladding process parameters on the morphology and structure of the cladding layer,we prepared the 316L coating on HT 200 by using Design-Expert software central composite design(CCD)based on response surface analysis.We built a regression prediction model and analyzed the ANOVA with the inspection results.With a target cladding layer width of 3.5 mm and height of 1.3 mm,the process parameters were optimized to obtain the best combination of process parameters.The microstructure,phases,and hardness variations of the cladding layer from experiments with optimal parameters were analyzed by the metallographic microscope,confocal microscope,and microhardness instrument.The experimental results indicate that laser power has a significant impact on the cladding layer width,followed by powder feed rate;scan speed has a significant impact on the cladding layer height,followed by powder feed rate.The HT200 substrate and 316L can metallurgically bond well,and the cladding layer structure consists of dendritic crystals,columnar crystals,and equiaxed crystals in sequence.The optimal process parameter combination satisfying the morphology requirements is laser power(A)of 1993 W,scan speed(B)of 8.949 mm/s,powder feed rate(C)of 1.408 r/min,with a maximum hardness of 1564.3 HV0.5,significantly higher than the hardness of the HT200 substrate.

文摘[Objective] The research aimed to carry out numerical simulation on impact of land-surface process in a Meiyu front rainstorm.[Method] Based on the meso-scale atmospheric non-hydrostatic model GRAPES-Meso which coupled with NOAH land-surface module,a Meiyu front rainstorm in Jianghuai basin during 6-8 July,2005 was simulated.Via sensitivity tests with and without land-surface process,the impact of land-surface process on Meiyu front rainstorm was studied.[Result] GRAPES-Meso which coupled with NOAH land-surface process could simulate daily variation characteristics of Meiyu front precipitation and atmospheric low-level southwest jet.The land-surface process could improve the simulations of precipitation initiation,intensity and distribution.The improvement of precipitation initiation simulation was especially obvious,which solved spin-up problem of model to some extent.When the land-atmosphere interaction wasn’t considered,the precipitation initiation of model was very slow.The intensity evolution of simulated precipitation was different from actual situation.Moreover,it couldn’t simulate daily variation characteristics of precipitation and southwest jet.[Conclusion] The land-surface process had important impact on Meiyu process in Jianghuai basin.

文摘Precise high-temperature weather forecasts are essential, as heatwaves are increasing in frequency under the ongoing climate change. Land-surface schemes have been demonstrated to be crucial to numerical weather predictions.However, few studies have explored the impact of land surface schemes on short-range high-temperature weather forecasts via operational numerical weather prediction models. To evaluate the impact of the soil thermal process on high-temperature weather forecasts, we coupled the soil thermal process of the state-of-the-art Common Land Model(CoLM) with the South China operational numerical weather prediction model(CMA-TRAMS) and compared the coupled model with the original CMA-TRAMS, which incorporated the Simplified Model for land Surface(SMS). Contrast experiments based on two versions of CMA-TRAMS were conducted for the year 2022 when persistent extreme heatwaves were observed in Central-East China. The results are as follows:(1) Short-range high-temperature weather forecasts were sensitive to soil thermal process schemes. The original CMA-TRAMS clearly underestimated the summertime near-surface air temperature(T2m) over almost all areas of China, whereas the CoLM led to a reduction of the negative biases by approximately 0.5°C.(2) The more accurate initial soil temperatures and the deeper soil structure used in the CoLM test contributed to actual predictions of soil heat flux, soil temperature, and T2m. Nevertheless, the SMS test failed to capture upward heat transport from deeper to shallower soil layers at night due to the shallow soil structure and lower accuracy of the bottom and initial soil temperatures.(3) Higher soil temperatures resulted in increased near-surface moisture and cloud cover in the CoLM test, which led to the warmer soil and further mitigated the cold biases of T2m through reduced longwave and shortwave radiation losses at the land surface.

文摘Transpiration cooling is crucial for the performance of aerospace engine components,relying heavily on the processing quality and accuracy of microchannels.Laser powder bed fusion(LPBF)offers the potential for integrated manufacturing of complex parts and precise microchannel fabrication,essential for engine cooling applications.However,optimizing LPBF’s extensive process parameters to control processing quality and microchannel accuracy effectively remains a significant challenge,especially given the time-consuming and labor-intensive nature of handling numerous variables and the need for thorough data analysis and correlation discovery.This study introduced a combined methodology of high-throughput experiments and Gaussian process algorithms to optimize the processing quality and accuracy of nickel-based high-temperature alloy with microchannel structures.250 parameter combinations,including laser power,scanning speed,channel diameter,and spot compensation,were designed across ten high-throughput specimens.This setup allowed for rapid and efficient evaluation of processing quality and microchannel accuracy.Employing Bayesian optimization,the Gaussian process model accurately predicted processing outcomes over a broad parameter range.The correlation between various processing parameters,processing quality and accuracy was revealed,and various optimized process combinations were summarized.Verification through computed Tomography testing of the specimens confirmed the effectiveness and precision of this approach.The approach introduced in this research provides a way for quickly and efficiently optimizing the process parameters and establishing process-property relationships for LPBF,which has broad application value.

文摘The high temperature deformation behaviors of α＋β type titanium alloy TC11 （Ti-6.5Al-3.5Mo-1.5Zr-0.3Si） with coarse lamellar starting microstructure were investigated based on the hot compression tests in the temperature range of 950-1100 ℃ and the strain rate range of 0.001-10 s-1. The processing maps at different strains were then constructed based on the dynamic materials model, and the hot compression process parameters and deformation mechanism were optimized and analyzed, respectively. The results show that the processing maps exhibit two domains with a high efficiency of power dissipation and a flow instability domain with a less efficiency of power dissipation. The types of domains were characterized by convergence and divergence of the efficiency of power dissipation, respectively. The convergent domain in a＋fl phase field is at the temperature of 950-990 ℃ and the strain rate of 0.001-0.01 s^-1, which correspond to a better hot compression process window of α＋β phase field. The peak of efficiency of power dissipation in α＋β phase field is at 950 ℃ and 0.001 s 1, which correspond to the best hot compression process parameters of α＋β phase field. The convergent domain in β phase field is at the temperature of 1020-1080 ℃ and the strain rate of 0.001-0.1 s^-l, which correspond to a better hot compression process window of β phase field. The peak of efficiency of power dissipation in ℃ phase field occurs at 1050 ℃ over the strain rates from 0.001 s^-1 to 0.01 s^-1, which correspond to the best hot compression process parameters of ,8 phase field. The divergence domain occurs at the strain rates above 0.5 s^-1 and in all the tested temperature range, which correspond to flow instability that is manifested as flow localization and indicated by the flow softening phenomenon in stress-- strain curves. The deformation mechanisms of the optimized hot compression process windows in a＋β and β phase fields are identified to be spheroidizing and dynamic recrystallizing controlled by self-diffusion mechanism, respectively. The microstructure observation of the deformed specimens in different domains matches very well with the optimized results.

文摘A series of tests were carried microstructures of 2124 aluminum alloy in increase of aging time, temperature and low-to-peak-to-low manner. No significant out to investigate the effects of process parameters on mechanical properties and creep aging process. The results show that creep strain and creep rate increase with the applied stress. The hardness of specimen varies with aging time and stress in a effect of temperature on hardness of material is seen in the range of 185-195 ℃. The optimum mechanical properties are obtained at the conditions of （200 MPa, 185 ℃, 8 h） as the result of the coexistence of strengthening S＂ and S＇ phases in the matrix by transmission electron microscopy （TEM）. TEM observation shows that applied stress promotes the formation and growth of precioitates and no obvious stress orientation effect is observed in the matrix.

文摘To study the influence of roll casting process parameters on temperature and thermal-stress fields for the AZ31 magnesium alloy sheets,three-dimensional geometric and 3D finite element models for roll casting were established based on the symmetry of roll casting by ANSYS software.Meshing method and smart-sizing algorithm were used to divide finite element mesh in ANSYS software.A series of researches on the temperature and stress distributions during solidification process with different process parameters were done by 3D finite element method.The temperatures of both the liquid-solid two-phase zone and liquid phase zone were elevated with increasing pouring temperature.With the heat transfer coefficient increasing,the two-phase region for liquid-solid becomes smaller.With the pouring temperature increasing and the increase of casting speed,the length of two-phase zone rises.The optimized of process parameters（casting speed 2 m/min,pouring temperature 640 ℃ and heat transfer coefficient 15 kW/（m2·℃） with the water pouring at roller exit was used to produce magnesium alloy AZ31 sheet,and equiaxed grains with the average grain size of 50 μm were achieved after roll casting.The simulation results give better understanding of the temperature variation in phase transformation zone and the formation mechanism of hot cracks in plates during roll casting and help to design the optimized process parameters of roll casting for Mg alloy.

文摘Dry centrifugal granulation(DCG)experiments for blast furnace slag(BFS)were performed by means of a rotary disk atomizer since water quenching method can create a series of problems.The results showed that the DCG method can granulate the BFS,but the results are easily affected by the slag flow rate,disk rotating speed,disk radius,disk material and slag falling height.The granulating parameters with an excessive flow rate,low rotating speed,SiN–SiC disk,stainless steel disk and low slag falling height are detrimental to the granulation process.The most suitable parameters for granulation are a slag flow rate of 5.1×10^(−5) m^(3)/s,a disk rotating speed of 1500–2300 r/min,a slag falling height of 0.8 m and a smooth graphitic disk with the radius of 0.1 m.In the absence of an off-center flow,the overall best granulating effect produces round particles with mean diameter of 3.43 mm without creating slag fiber.The vitreous content of the BFS particles granulated by graphite disks is 92%,which meets the requirements of cement raw materials.The Bond work index of dry granulated BFS is 18.4 kWh/t,and the grindability of dry granulated slag and water-quenched slag is similar.

文摘True stress?true strain curves of Incoloy028alloy at high temperature and strain rate were investigated by hot compression test.These curves show that the maximum flow stress decreases with the increase in temperature and the decrease in strain rate.FEM simulation was employed to investigate the influence of temperature,extrusion speed and friction coefficient on the extrusion load,stress,strain and strain rate in the extrusion process.The increase of extrusion temperature results in decrease of load and deformation resistance,but has little influence on strain and strain rate.When extrusion speed changes between200and350mm/s,no obvious change about extrusion load can be found.Sharp peak value up to42500kN emerges in the extrusion load curve and the extrusion process becomes unstable seriously when extrusion speed rises up to400mm/s.Both stress and strain rate increase with the raise of extrusion speed.When friction coefficient is between0.02and0.03,deformation resistance is about160MPa and the strain rate can be limited below70s?1.Successful production of Incoloy028tube verifies the optimized parameters by FEM simulation analysis,and mechanical tests results of the products meet the required properties.

文摘As a typical laser additive manufacturing technology,laser powder bed fusion(LPBF)has achieved demonstration applications in aerospace,biomedical and other fields.However,how to select process parameters quickly and reasonably is still themain concern of LPBF production.In order to quantitatively analyze the influence of different process parameters(laser power,scanning speed,hatch space and layer thickness)on the LPBF process,the multilayer and multi-path forming process of LPBF was predicted based on the open-source discrete element method framework Yade and the open-source finite volume method framework OpenFOAM.Based on the design of experiments method,a four-factor three-level orthogonal test scheme was designed,and the porosity and surface roughness data of each calculation scheme were extracted.By analyzing the orthogonal test data,it was found that as the laser power increased,the porosity decreased,and as the scanning speed,hatch space,and layer thickness increased,the porosity increased.In addition,the influence of laser power and scanning speed on surface roughness showed a trend of decreasing first and then increasing,while the influence of scanning distance and layer thickness on surface roughness showed amonotonous increasing trend.The order of the influence of each process parameter on porosity was:scanning speed>laying thickness>laser power>hatch space,and the order of the influence of each process parameter on surface roughness was:hatch space>layer thickness>laser power>scanning speed.So the porosity of the part is most sensitive to scanning speed,and the surface roughness is the most sensitive to hatch space.The above conclusions are expected to provide process control basis for actual LPBF production of the 316L stainless steel alloy.

文摘Here we develop a two-dimensional numerical model of wire and arc additive manufacturing(WAAM)to determine the relationship between process parameters and deposition geometry,and to reveal the influence mechanism of process parameters on deposition geometry.From the predictive results,a higher wire feed rate matched with a higher current could generate a larger and hotter droplet,and thus transfer more thermal and kinetic energy into melt pool,which results in a wider and lower deposited layer with deeper penetration.Moreover,a higher preheat temperature could enlarge melt pool volume and thus enhance heat and mass convection along both axial and radial directions,which gives rise to a wider and higher deposited layer with deeper penetration.These findings offer theoretical guidelines for the acquirement of acceptable deposition shape and optimal deposition quality through adjusting process parameters in fabricating WAAM components.
