COMSOL Multiphysics was used to calculate the three-dimensional heat transfer, fluid dynamics and electromagnetic field equations. Thermo-capillary (Marangoni) convection at the upper weld pool surface, natural convection due to gravity and latent heat of solid-liquid phase transition were taken into account. It shows that the application of steady magnetic fields produces a braking Lorentz force in the melt based on the Hartmann effect. The flow pattern in the weld pool and also the temperature distribution and associated weld pool geometry thus change significantly. Convective flows in the melt can effectively be suppressed and the influence of thermo-capillary flow is diminished to a thin surface layer.

The magnet was mounted on the laser welding head. The magnet field (up to 0.4 T and 10 kHz) was oriented perpendicular the welding direction. The analysis of the weld cross-sections and x-ray images shows a drastic reduction (up to 90%) of porosity contents in the welds. The observed effects can be explained in terms of electromagnetically (EM) induced 'Archimedes' forces as well as the EM stirring flow in the weld pool. Moreover, usage of AC magnetic fields results in a significant reduction (up to 50%) of the surface roughness of the welds. This effect can be explained in terms of electromagnetic (EM) contribution to the surface tension (the Garnier-Moreau effect) T2 - ICALEO 2012 - 31st International congress on applications of lasers & electro-optics CY - Anaheim, CA, USA DA - 23.09.2012 PY - 2012 IS - Paper 701 SP - 250 EP - 256 AN - OPUS4-27257 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - CONF A1 - Graf, Benjamin A1 - Gumenyuk, Andrey A1 - Rethmeier, Michael T1 - Laser metal deposition as repair technology for stainless steel and titanium alloys T2 - LANE 2012 - Laser Assisted net shape engineering 7 N2 - In a repair process chain, damaged areas or cracks can be removed by milling and subsequently be reconditioned with new material deposition. The use of laser metal deposition has been investigated for this purpose. The material has been deposited into different groove shapes, using both stainless steel and Ti-6Al-4 V. The influence of welding parameters on the microstructure and the heat affected zone has been studied. The parameters have been modified in order to achieve low heat input and consequently low distortion as well as low metallurgical impact. Finally, an evaluation of the opportunities for an automatized repair process is made.
