Abstract

In this study, the emissivity of the wire arc directed energy deposition manufactured part made by 7075 nano-treated (NT) aluminum alloy during the continuous air-cooling process was experimentally examined, followed by a comprehensive investigation of the factors including surface texture, viewing angle, temperature, and surface condition on the emissivity gradient. For this purpose, a topography scanner and multiple temperature sensors were used, and a dedicated on-site temperature capture apparatus was designed to perform topography and temperature measurements. The emissivity gradient during the continuous air-cooling process is examined and the effect of the surface texture, viewing angle, and temperature is analyzed. The results indicate that the surface texture, which is mainly derived from the surface waviness along the part’s building direction, has a significant effect on the emissivity. In addition, the emissivity gradients for different surface conditions, such as polished and coated surfaces, were also studied. Finally, regression models with high fitting accuracy were developed for predicting the emissivity of 7075NT aluminum alloy parts once surface texture, surface condition and temperature were given.
