Nucleation and growth of chimney pores during electron-beam additive manufacturing
Source abstract
Abstract
The nucleation and growth of chimney pores during powder-bed electron-beam additive manufacturing is investigated using in situ infrared thermography and micro-computed tomography. The chimney pores are found to nucleate heterogeneously at dimples on the side surfaces of additively manufactured components, and to grow through a molten-film rupture process. Further, these nucleation and growth processes are found to be strongly influenced by the beam diameter. Several strategies for suppressing the formation of chimney pores are discussed in light of these results.
