The chemical compositions, microstructures and surface morphology of the cladded layer were analyzed using energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and X-ray diffractometry (XRD). The experimental results showed that an excellent metallurgical bonding between the coating and the substrate was obtained. The microstructure of the coating was mainly composed of γ-Ni dendrites, a small amount of CrB, Ni3B, M23C6 and dispersed TiC particles. Much more and larger TiC particles formed in the overlapping zone, which led to a slightly higher microhardness of this zone. The maximum microhardness of the coating was about HV0.21200. The effects of the laser processing parameters on the microstructures and properties of coating were also investigated.展开更多

By using the continuum model and enthalpy-porosity method, the fluid flow and heat transfer in solid-liquid phase change system were simulated. The commercial software PHOENICS, to which several modules were appended, was used to accomplish the simulation. Numerical computation was performed for Stellite 6 cladding on steel, the obtained results are coincident with those measured in experiment basically.展开更多

Byusing Lambert-Beer theorem and Mie's theory, the interaction between powder stream and laser beamwas treated to evoke their subtle effects on heat transfer and fluid flow in laser molten pool. Thenumerical study was performed in a co-ordinate system moving with the laser at a constant scanningspeed. A fixed grid enthalpy-porosity approach was used, which predicted the evolutionarydevelopment of the laser molten pool. The commercial software PHOENICS, to which several moduleswere appended, was used to accomplish the simulation. The results obtained by the simulation werecoincident with those measured in experiment basically.展开更多
