The Additive Manufacturing Module is an Add-on Module in Thermo-Calc that is primarily designed for modeling the powder bed fusion process in Additive Manufacturing.
Special focus has been given to have a unified treatment of alloy dependent material properties and process parameters when solving the multiphysics problem of a moving heat source that melts and solidifies metal powder. The multiphysics simulation involves thermal conduction, fluid flow, evaporation-, radiation- and convective- heat loss.
This webinar will give an overview of the module, followed by a live demonstration of how to: generate the materials data needed for the simulation, setup different calculation types, analyze results, couple results to other modules, and finally a preview of the current development.
Topics that will be discussed:
