This is a FLOW-3D AM simulation of laser wire-based directed energy deposition with IN718. In this example, you can see the complex interplay of heat transfer, surface tension, viscosity, and phase change for consistent bead deposition. Learn more about how FLOW-3D AM is useful for understanding the processing windows for wire-based DED and allows for optimization studies to find the best processing parameters such as wire feed rate and diameter for a build at flow3d.com/products/flow3d-am
