Three-dimensional heat transfer analysis of Hot Gas Torch (HGT)-assisted Automated Fiber Placement (AFP) for thermoplastic composites
Automated Fiber Placement (AFP) is a key additive manufacturing process for the production of complex composite structures. This study focuses on the in-situ AFP process for thermoplastic composites with Hot Gas Torch (HGT), which includes heating, consolidation, and solidification steps. Temperature control is critical to achieving high quality parts as it affects bond quality, crystallization, and solidification. However, previous studies have oversimplified convective heat transfer by assuming a constant coefficient, resulting in discrepancies between simulations and experiments. This paper introduces a novel distribution function to model the convective heat transfer coefficient, thereby improving temperature predictions. An optimization loop is used to determine the parameters of the function, which ensures agreement with experimental data. The proposed approach accurately predicts the temperature distribution, which is validated against unseen experimental results. By incorporating the distribution of the convective heat transfer coefficient, this study improves the understanding of heat transfer mechanisms in AFP for thermoplastic composites, leading to improved manufacturing processes and part quality.
期刊介绍:
The past few decades have seen outstanding advances in the use of composite materials in structural applications. There can be little doubt that, within engineering circles, composites have revolutionised traditional design concepts and made possible an unparalleled range of new and exciting possibilities as viable materials for construction. Composite Structures, an International Journal, disseminates knowledge between users, manufacturers, designers and researchers involved in structures or structural components manufactured using composite materials.
The journal publishes papers which contribute to knowledge in the use of composite materials in engineering structures. Papers deal with design, research and development studies, experimental investigations, theoretical analysis and fabrication techniques relevant to the application of composites in load-bearing components for assemblies, ranging from individual components such as plates and shells to complete composite structures.
