An in situ imaging investigation of the effect of gas flow rates on directed energy deposition
Abstract
Gas flow rates in Directed Energy Deposition (DED) Additive Manufacturing (AM) can significantly affect the quality of built parts by altering melt pool geometry. Using a DED process replicator and in situ synchrotron radiography, together with analogous experiments in an industrial DED machine, we investigate the impact of carrier gas and shield gas flow rates on build quality. The results reveal that there is a critical shield gas flow rate above which melt pools are flattened, tracks widen, and thus layer thickness decreases. The reduction in layer thickness is most prominent in conditions with low carrier gas flow rate, as the highly turbulent shield gas flow may divert slow moving powder particles away from the melt pool, decreasing capture efficiency. Very high flow rates increase internal porosity, as fast-moving particles impacting the melt pool surface can entrain chamber gas behind them. High gas flow rates also cool the melt pool, creating shallower melt pools with increased thermal gradients near the solidification front, increasing pore entrapment in the solidified track.
