Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) Simulation with Ring Beam Shape and Ray Tracing | FLOW-3D AM

This FLOW-3D AM simulation depicts a laser beam with a "ring" heat flux distribution moving along a track, melting metallic powder particles during a laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process. This simulation highlights FLOW-3D POST's ray tracing capabilities which can represent metallic material light refraction.
