Characterization and thermal analysis of laser metal deposited γ-TiAl thin walls
The present work focuses on investigating the effect of process variables (power, travel speed, powder flow rate) on microstructure and mechanical properties of Laser Metal Deposited (LMD) γ-TiAl thin walls. To this end, LMD technique was used to deposit γ-TiAl thin walls at different processing con...

The present work focuses on investigating the effect of process variables (power, travel speed, powder flow rate) on microstructure and mechanical properties of Laser Metal Deposited (LMD) γ-TiAl thin walls. To this end, LMD technique was used to deposit γ-TiAl thin walls at different processing conditions. Microstructures of as-deposited samples were investigated using both optical and scanning electron microscopy. X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique was used to determine the phases present. Microhardness measurements were carried out along both longitudinal and build directions. Microstructural analysis of as-deposited samples revealed a fine lamellar structure comprising of γ and α2 phases. Colony size of 30–60 μm and lamellar spacing between 0.1 and 0.7 μm were observed. XRD analysis confirmed the presence of γ and α2 phases.
