A finite element model was established to describe the flow field and temperature field during the surface modification by electron beam in this paper. The driving forces of molten pool were considered in the mode. The flow of liquid metal was different between the inside and outside of the beam spot; the direction of the flow was along the surface to the specimen thickness. When the liquid metal was in the bottom of the pool, it flowed along the bottom to the pool edge. The largest flow velocity was 0.28m/s in the center of the beam spot, the minimum flow velocity was 0.11 m/s in the bottom of molten pool. The temperature of sample is uniform distribution, the temperature distribution show a gradient distribution in cross section.

In the production process of large-diameter seamless steel pipes, the blank heating quality before roll piercing has an important effect on whether subsequently conforming piping is produced. Obtaining accurate pipe blank heating temperature fields is the basis for establishing and optimizing a seamless pipe heating schedule. In this paper, the thermal process in a regenerative heating furnace was studied using fluent software, and the distribution laws of the flow field in the furnace and of the temperature field around the pipe blanks were obtained and verified experimentally. The heating furnace for pipe blanks was analyzed from multiple perspectives, including overall flow field, flow fields at different cross sections, and overall temperature field. It was found that the changeover process of the regenerative heating furnace caused the temperature in the upper part of the furnace to fluctuate. Under the pipe blanks, the gas flow was relatively thin, and the flow velocity was relatively low, facilitating the formation of a viscous turbulent layer and thereby inhibiting heat exchange around the pipe blanks. The mutual interference between the gas flow from burners and the return gas from the furnace tail flue led to different flow velocity directions at different positions, and such interference was relatively evident in the middle part of the furnace. A temperature “layering” phenomenon occurred between the upper and lower parts of the pipe blanks. The study in this paper has some significant usefulness for in-depth exploration of the characteristics of regenerative heating furnaces for steel pipes.

According to the characteristics of laser melt injection, a numerical model for a simplified 3D transient temperature field in molten pool was established using FLUENT software in this paper. In the model, many factors were considered such as liquid metal turbulence, latent heat of phase transformation and material thermo physical properties depending on temperature. The results show that the model can be developed well by FLUENT software. And the results also show that the driving force of the liquid metal flow mechanism.

In this paper, the finite element simulation of GH4169 high temperature alloy by selective laser melting was carried out, and the microstructure was analyzed by experiments. The results show that the shape of the temperature field cloud formed by the laser heat source is different from the shape of the theoretical model, but is in the shape of the ellipse. The temperature gradient at the front end of the molten pool is larger than that of the back end of the molten pool, and the isotherm of the front end of the molten pool is more intensive. The temperature of the substrate is less affected by the temperature gradient. The temperature gradient of the front end of the melting pool is larger than the back end of the molten pool, and the temperature field of selective laser melting is like a meteor with trailing tail. In the laser heat source, the temperature isotherm is the most dense and the temperature gradient is maximum. The relative effect of mechanical properties of δ phase is very complex. When the phase is precipitated by widmanstatten structure, it is easy to produce stress concentration as a source of cracks

The solidification microstructure of electron beam scanning is important to product performance. The solidification process of molten pool temperature field and 2D simulation mathematical model of grain growth was established based on heat transfer and the physics of growth process of crystal grains. The heat distribution, thermal physical parameters and influence of thermal radiation on the temperature field was considered during the analysis process. The distribution of temperature field was solved by COMSOL. The process of solidification was simulated by using Monte Carlo method. Using optical microscope to observe the solidified microstructure of bath. The simulation results show that the mathematical model can reasonably describe the grain growth process, the temperature field and the simulation of microstructure morphology.

In this study, a multitrack and multilayer finite element model was developed to simulate the temperature field and molten pool contours during selective laser melting (SLM) of 316L stainless steel powder under different scanning strategies. The simulated temperature field and its evolution over time were compared with experimental measurement results. Furthermore, a correlation was established by the presented results between the predicted thermal behavior and the microstructure of SLM specimens. It was found that the maximum temperature of the molten pool rose slightly with the increase of scanning tracks, but when laser scanned multilayer, the maximum temperature rose first and then decreased. There are large columnar crystals in molten pools, growing in the direction of the maximum temperature gradient. The microstructure defects are more likely to occur at the bonding regions between adjacent layers and islands, where the heat and stress are concentrated. Moreover, the results also showed that the scanning strategy affects the microstructure and microhardness. Also, the SLM 316L parts under the S-shaped strategy had finer grains and a higher Vicker hardness than that formed under the island strategy.

Researching on continuous casting mold at a domestic steel slab, the coupled models of flow field and temperature field inside of mold were established in finite element analysis software ANSYS, and the flow field and temperature field of liquid steel in mold was simulated. The effect on flow field and temperature field in continuous casting mold caused by change of the withdrawal speed was mainly discussed in this paper. The simulation results show that the change of withdrawal speed has little effect on flow field and much effect on temperature distribution in mold. The simulation results are good agreed with the practical produce data, verifying the accuracy of the numerical simulation analysis, which provide theoretical basis and effective guidance for improving process and increasing yield in practical production.
