The use of ANSYS for modelling the energy distribution in steady mode with electron beam welding

Abstract

The article is devoted to solving the problem of modelling the distribution of energy in the steady mode with electron beam welding with the means of ANSYS Academic Student. The authors propose the implementation of the simulation model to allow evaluating the density of the heat field in the assembly unit of the product when it is connected to its elements by means of electron beam welding. Two imitation models are implemented for one of the types of aerospace products, made of titanium alloy and aluminum alloy. Such models allow research to assess the effect of technological parameters of the process of electron beam welding on the heating intensity of the zone near the weld. A series of experiments with visualization of their results for various power values was carried out.
