In this simulation, we can observe the evolution of the fusion zone during hairpin welding. The shape and dimensions of the weld are important for the efficiency and robustness of electric motors. The simulation in FLOW-3D WELD is validated with experimental photographs from D'Arcangelo et al., Comprehensive benchmarking of laser welding technologies including novel beam shapes and wavelengths for e-drive copper hairpins, Optics & Laser Technology, Volume 169, 2024.To learn more about how FLOW-3D WELD is used to simulate hairpin welding and much more, visit flow3d.com/products/flow3d-weld/.
