Following laser irradiation, the alloyed zone has been characterized by a detailed microstructural observation and phase analysis. Moreover, the properties of the surface alloyed layer like microhardness and corrosion have been evaluated in detail. The surface modified layer predominantly consists of dendrites of Al + Mn and Al + Mg. The microhardness of the alloyed zone has been significantly enhanced to as high as 250-350 VHN as compared to 35 VHN of the substrate region. The corrosion rate in a 3.56 wt.% NaCl solution has significantly reduced to 250 mpy for laser surface alloyed specimen as compared to 1520 mpy of the MEZ substrate.

In the present study, laser hole drilling in Inconel 617 alloy is considered and the factorial analysis based on the statistical technique is introduced when identifying the significance levels of the operational parameters. The parameters selected are drilling ambient pressure, laser output energy, focus settings of focusing lens, and workpiece thickness. In order to complete the factorial analysis, four levels of each parameter are taken into account. The laser drilled holes were cross-sectioned and examined under the microscope. A marking scheme is introduced to evaluate the geometric features of the hole cross-section.

The properties of these layers were characterised by metallographic investigations such as optical and scanning electron microscope and hardness measurements. The corrosion resistance has been determined using a modified immersion test in sulphuric acid with drying cycles in air.

It is specially developed to treat moving heat sources with phase changes, melting and vapourisation. Heat transfer control in laser processing is particularly useful when processes must respect prescribed temperatures, or more generally, prescribed constraints. These processes involve generally several laser sources, or non-conventional power distribution. Hence, they have numerous parameters to set. Experimental optimisation is difficult and may be expansive. The numerical model is a useful and cheaper tool for development of those complex processes. For example in this article, two special laser processes are investigated: control of high carbon steel welded line cooling, zinc-coated sheets lap welding.","PeriodicalId":49918,"journal":{"name":"Lasers in Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2002-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75434315","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
