CFD–DPM Simulation Study of the Effect of Powder Layer Thickness on the SLM Spatter Behavior

Selective Laser Melting (SLM) has significant advantages in manufacturing complex structural components and refining the alloy microstructure; however, spatter, as a phenomenon that accompanies the entire SLM forming process, is prone to problems such as inclusions, porosity, and low powder recovery...
