毛化钛合金与复合材料激光辅助连接过程数值模拟

Numerical simulation of laser-assisted connection process of textured titanium alloy and composite material

  • 摘要:
    目的 旨在解决毛化钛合金与碳纤维增强聚醚醚酮(Poly ether-ether-ketone,PEEK)复合材料激光辅助连接这一过程所涉及的局部大变形和完全热−力耦合过程的建模问题。
    方法 采用VOF方法结合粘塑性材料模型建立该过程的完全热−力耦合计算模型。对钛合金板上表面受热并传热于底面毛刺、底面毛刺与PEEK上表面接触及二者之间瞬时热−力交互作用(其决定毛刺扎入过程)、钛合金底面与PEEK上表面全面接触传热等连接过程中所涉及一系列复杂过程,进行了建模和模拟计算。
    结果 获得了该连接过程中各构件瞬时温度场、构件运动情况、应力场的计算结果。
    结论 在毛化钛合金与PEEK激光辅助连接过程中,毛刺扎入的热接触和随后上下连接面的全面接触传热是该连接过程中两个主要阶段,这两个阶段都属于完全热−力耦合过程,连接过程中毛刺扎入的必要条件是毛刺将适当热量传给PEEK,反过来毛刺扎入亦影响传热,PEEK连接表面的温度在毛刺完全扎入之后稳步上升,同时PEEK的升温可以在毛化钛合金降温过程中持续一段时间。

     

    Abstract: Objective The purpose is to solve the problem of modelling the process of laser-assisted connection process of textured titanium alloy and carbon fiber reinforced poly ether-ether-ketone composite material (PEEK), whose difficulty lies in large local deformation and fully thermo-mechanical coupling process. Methods VOF method and viscoplastic material model are used to established a fully thermo-mechanical coupling simulation model. A series of complex processes involves in the connection of titanium alloy plate upper surface heating and heat transfer to the bottom burr, the contact between the bottom burr and PEEK upper surface and the transient thermal-mechanical interaction between the two (which determines the burr insertion process) , and the full contact heat transfer between the bottom surface of titanium alloy and PEEK upper surface are modeled and simulated. Results The calculation results of temperature field, movement, and stress fields of each component during the connection process are provided. Conclusion The thermal contact of burr insertion and the overall contact heat transfer of the upper and lower interface are the two main stages in the laser-assisted bonding process between titanium alloy and PEEK, both of which are fully thermo-mechanical coupling processes. The necessary condition of the burr penetrating into the PEEK is that appropriate heat is transferred to the PEEK, conversely, the penetration of burr influences the heat transfer. The temperature of the PEEK surface rises steadily after the burr entered the PEEK entirely, and this temperature rising process sustains for a period of time during the cooling process of textured titanium alloy.
