Abstract

In response to the demand for carbon deposit removal in aero-engine components, a three-dimensional heat transfer model for nanosecond pulsed laser cleaning of carbon layers on nickel-based superalloy (IN625) surfaces was established using finite element analysis. The temperature evolution and surface morphology are investigated under varying laser powers and spot overlap rates. Experimental validation revealed that increasing laser power elevates the peak surface temperature and significantly enhances ablation depth. While spot overlap rate has a weaker influence on cleaning efficiency, excessive overlap (>60 %) induces secondary ablation due to heat accumulation. The average deviation between simulated and experimental ablation depths was 9.18 % (power variation) and 7.85 % (overlap rate), confirming model reliability. Combined with the finite element simulation and actual cleaning experiments, the optimized process parameters are 40 W laser power and 60 % overlap rate, at which the overall cleaning effect is optimal.

纳秒脉冲激光清洗镍基合金表面碳层的数值模拟与实验研究

针对航空发动机部件除碳需求，采用有限元分析方法，建立了纳秒脉冲激光对镍基高温合金（IN625）表面碳层清洗的三维传热模型。研究了不同激光功率和光斑重叠率下的温度演变和表面形貌。实验验证表明，增加激光功率可以提高表面峰值温度，显著提高烧蚀深度。而光斑重叠率对清洗效率的影响较弱，过度重叠（> 60%）会引起热积累引起二次烧蚀。模拟烧蚀深度与实验烧蚀深度的平均偏差为9.18%（功率变化）和7.85%（重叠率），验证了模型的可靠性。结合有限元仿真和实际清洗实验，优化后的工艺参数为激光功率40 W，重叠率60%，整体清洗效果最佳。
