Abstract
Managing the quality of parts produced by the Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM) process presents a significant challenge, particularly due to the complexity of thermal control. Effective thermal management is crucial for minimizing defects, making fast and accurate thermal simulations essential for testing and optimizing various manufacturing strategies. This article proposes a rapid simulation that decouples the calculation of heat conduction from convection and radiation. The proposed simulation is described and validated against experimental data. The influences of spatial and temporal discretization are examined. In conclusion, this developed approach provides a fast and efficient simulation of a manufacturing strategy for improvement.
期刊介绍:
The CIRP Journal of Manufacturing Science and Technology (CIRP-JMST) publishes fundamental papers on manufacturing processes, production equipment and automation, product design, manufacturing systems and production organisations up to the level of the production networks, including all the related technical, human and economic factors. Preference is given to contributions describing research results whose feasibility has been demonstrated either in a laboratory or in the industrial praxis. Case studies and review papers on specific issues in manufacturing science and technology are equally encouraged.
