Abstract:High fluence femtosecond laser percussion drilling has a potential to produce micro holes for cooling purpose in turbine blades made of titanium alloys due to its short interaction time with the material. For an in-depth investigation, numerical simulation is carried out using 2D axi-symmetric two-temperature and heat conduction models in tandem, mimicking the laser percussion drilling. Moving mesh approach in finite element based COMSOL Multiphysics software is used to arrive at the crater geometry during the… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
