Abstract

In this paper, a simulation model for Selective Laser Melting (SLM) technology is established to simulate the additive manufacturing process of a turbine impeller for an aerospace engine. By utilizing the simulation model, variations in laser power and scanning speed are employed to obtain simulated results of thermal deformation for the turbine impeller under different laser power and scanning speed conditions. The results indicate that the thermal deformation of the component increases with the augmentation of laser power, decreases with the escalation of scanning speed, and eventually stabilizes. Based on the relationship between thermal deformation and energy, the energy utilization efficiency of the SLM process under different conditions is calculated. The findings demonstrate that, within a certain range of power, the synergistic effect of laser power and scanning speed allows for an increase in energy utilization efficiency and a reduction in processing time while ensuring the mechanical performance of the formed parts. Consequently, this approach proves effective in lowering production costs for complex components based on SLM technology.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The maximum deformation in 3D-printed turbines typically occurs at the base edge.

    “Additionally, studies on thermal deformation show that the maximum deformation in 3D-printed turbines typically occurs at the base edge [73].”

    From Towards Sustainability in Hydraulic Machinery Manufacturing by 3D Printing (2024) · cites this paper as [73]

    The Conclusions state that maximum thermal deformation of the studied turbine pump impeller occurs at the edge of the base. The claim extends that finding to 3D-printed turbines generally by saying it 'typically' occurs there; this broader pattern is not established by the cited passage. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
