- (1)
- To investigate the effect of G and R on the microstructure in CMT-WAAM multilayer deposition, a mathematical model was developed to simulate the processes. Upon comparing the simulation results of the model with the experimentally measured temperatures, CMT-WAAM showed an error of 4.4%. Excluding some peaks, the simulated and experimental result were nearly identical. The developed model thus effectively simulated the thermal conditions of the multilayer processes in CMT-WAAM was suitable for calculating the solidification parameters and analyzing the heat input;
- (2)
- In the CMT-WAAM multilayer processes, a 316L SS solidification map, which consists of G and R of each layer of deposit was suggested to control and predict the microstructure. In the solidification map, which reflects the heat accumulation of deposit, G × R and G/R were ranged from 68 to 690 °C/s and 2 to 33 °Cs/mm2, respectively;
- (3)
- Through the solidification map, the effect of G and R on the microstructure of each layer was investigated. Although G/R showed variation in the solidification map, the morphology of the microstructure was not changed along with the height except for the top of the 10th layer. On the other hand, G × R decreases as the layer increases in the solidification map, but SDAS, which is affected by G × R, tends to increase;
- (4)
- By calculating G and R from the simulation model, a possible new method for predicting the microstructure shape without performing actual deposition was developed. This could provide the basis for controlling or predicting the microstructure and mechanical properties by selecting the CMT-WAAM process parameters in future research.
