Thermal Boundary Evolution of Molten Pool During Wire and Arc Additive Manufacturing of Single Walls of 5A06 Aluminum Alloy

Molten pool uniformity is a prerequisite for wire and arc additive manufacture to achieve a uniform surface appearance. The thermal boundary is a key indicator to evaluate the thermodynamic state of the molten pool. This paper focuses on thermal analysis through finite element simulation and charact...
