Most existing studies focus on the influence of individual process parameters, with limited systematic investigation into the effects of key deposition strategies such as scanning strategy, interlayer cooling time, and deposition length. To address this, this study establishes a three-dimensional transient numerical model of DED-arc to systematically investigate how these strategies influence the melt pool's dynamics and formation characteristics. The results show that, increasing the interlayer cooling time from 0 s to 10 s significantly improves dimensional uniformity by approximately 19.7 %, achieved by decreasing the average deposition width by about 6.1 % and increasing the height by nearly 25.9 %. Furthermore, compared with unidirectional scanning, a bidirectional scanning strategy optimizes heat accumulation and enhances melt pool stability. Increasing the deposition length extends the stable formation zone, effectively mitigating the adverse impact of end instabilities on overall morphology. This study provides quantitative theoretical guidance for process optimization, parameter selection, and stable multi-layer formation in DED-arc.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":341,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Thermal Sciences","volume":"223 ","pages":"Article 110600"},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145789450","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To accurately reflect the impact of the vacuum arc on the contact, optical emission spectroscopy (OES) is employed to diagnose plasma parameters under different rotational speeds, determining electron temperature and electron density. The derived electron heat flux density is used to estimate the energy flux density received by a single cathode spot from the arc column, which serves as a boundary condition for modeling cathode spot formation and evolution at various rotation speeds. The three-dimensional model integrates fluid dynamics equations, heat transfer equations, and a modified level-set equation. The study explores cathode spot surface temperature, molten pool width, erosion volume, and droplet ejection behavior under different rotational interruption scenarios. Results show that direct-pull interruption causes more severe droplet splashing compared to rotational interruption. In the direct-pull case, splashed material at the molten pool edge forms a “serrated” morphology.
