Volume of Metal Melted
Volume of Metal Melted is defined as the volume of the material removed during the process of Laser Beam Machining.
Symbol: V
Measurement: VolumeUnit: m³
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Heat Energy
Heat Energy is the form of energy that is transferred between systems with different temperatures. It flows from the hotter system to the cooler one until thermal equilibrium is reached.
Symbol: Q
Measurement: EnergyUnit: J
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Material Reflectivity
Material Reflectivity is the ratio of amount of radiation that is reflected to the total radiation incident.
Symbol: R
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Specific Gravity of Material
Specific Gravity of Material is a dimensionless unit defined as the ratio of the density of the material to the density of water at a specified temperature.
Symbol: s
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Specific Heat Capacity
Specific Heat Capacity is the heat required to raise the temperature of the unit mass of a given substance by a given amount.
Symbol: c
Measurement: Specific Heat CapacityUnit: J/kg*°C
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Melting Temperature of Base Metal
Melting Temperature of Base Metal is the temperature at which its phase changes from liquid to solid.
Symbol: Tm
Measurement: TemperatureUnit: °C
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Ambient Temperature
Ambient temperature refers to the air temperature of any object or environment where equipment is stored. In a more general sense, it is the temperature of the surrounding environment.
Symbol: θambient
Measurement: TemperatureUnit: °C
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Latent Heat of Fusion
The Latent Heat of Fusion is the amount of heat required to convert one unit amount of substance from the solid phase to the liquid phase — leaving the temperature of the system unaltered.
Symbol: Lfusion
Measurement: Latent HeatUnit: J/kg
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
