Abstract

The actual task is to create simulation models designed to evaluate welded joints at electron-beam welding of thin-walled structures. Within the framework of this research mathematical models of electron beam input for AMG-6 and VT-14 alloys are considered. The article presents the developed simulation models of temperature distribution at different modes of electron beam input in the process of electron-beam welding. The models are constructed using special software COMSOL Multiphysics. The developed model of optimization of the electron beam input mode at the joint takes into account the nature of heat distribution in the melting zone, the set technological parameters of the electron-beam welding process, as well as the required parameters of the thin-walled constructions welded connection. Graphs of temperature distribution obtained at given process parameters, such as stabilization temperature, welding current, welding time, beam diameter, by which it is possible to estimate quality and applicability of proposed mathematical models, are given. A comparison of simulation modeling results with the results obtained in earlier studies allows us to conclude about the applicability of the proposed method in further studies. In particular, the proposed approach will be used in the development of models to output the electron beam. #COMESYSO1120.
