Abstract:
Laser-metal additive manufacturing capabilities have advanced from single-material printing to multimaterial/multifunctional design and manufacturing. Material-structure-performance integrated additive manufacturing (MSPI-AM) represents a path toward the integral manufacturing of end-use components with innovative structures and multimaterial layouts to meet the increasing demand from industries such as aviation, aerospace, automobile manufacturing, and energy production. We highlight two methodological ideas for MSPI-AM—“the right materials printed in the right positions” and “unique structures printed for unique functions”—to realize major improvements in performance and function. We establish how cross-scale mechanisms to coordinate nano/microscale material development, mesoscale process monitoring, and macroscale structure and performance control can be used proactively to achieve high performance with multifunctionality. MSPI-AM exemplifies the revolution of design and manufacturing strategies for AM and its technological enhancement and sustainable development.

Abstract:
Laser additive technology additive manufacturing is a manufacturing method that realizes the combination of precise "shape control" of complex structure and high-performance "controllability". After rapid solidification, it forms a surface coating or matrix structure with very low dilution. Such surface coating or structure can effectively combine metallurgical technology, and can improve the wear resistance, corrosion resistance, heat resistance, oxidation resistance and other properties of the surface of the matrix material, or in manufacturing. At present, laser additive manufacturing is widely used in aerospace and military industry for rapid repair and performance enhancement of parts. In terms of metals, selective laser melting (SLM) and laser melting deposition (LCD) processes are mainly represented.

Abstract:
Additive manufacturing (AM) can revolutionise engineering by taking advantage of unconstrained design and overcoming the limitations of traditional manufacturing capabilities. A promising application of AM is in catalyst substrate manufacturing, aimed at the enhancement of the catalytic efficiency and reduction in the volume and weight of the catalytic reactors in the exhaust gas aftertreatment systems. This work addresses the design and fabrication of innovative, hybrid monolithic ceramic substrates using AM technology based on Digital Light Processing (DLP). The designs are based on two individual substrates integrated into a single, dual-substrate monolith by various interlocking systems. These novel dual-substrate monoliths lay the foundation for the potential reduction in the complexity and expense of the aftertreatment system. Several examples of interlocking systems for dual substrates were designed, manufactured and thermally post-processed to illustrate the viability and versatility of the DLP manufacturing process. Based on the findings, the sintered parts displayed anisotropic sintering shrinkage of approximately 14% in the X–Y direction and 19% in the Z direction, with a sintered density of 97.88 ± 0.01%. Finally, mechanical tests revealed the mechanical integrity of the designed interlocks. U-lock and Thread configurations were found to sustain more load until complete failure.

Abstract:
Additive manufacturing (AM) is a manufacturing technique that adds material, such as polymers, ceramics, and metals, in patterned layers to build three-dimensional parts for applications related to medicine, aviation, and energy. AM processes for metals like selective laser melting (SLM) hold the unique advantage of fabricating metal parts with complex architectures that cannot be produced by conventional manufacturing techniques. Thermal transport can be a focal point of unique AM products and is likewise important to metal AM processes. This dissertation investigates AM metal meshes with spatially varied thermal conductivities that can be used to maximize the charge and discharge rates for thermal energy storage and thermal management by phase change materials (PCMs). Further, manufacturing these meshes demands excellent thermal control in the metal powder bed for SLM processes. Since the thermal conductivities of metal powders specific to AM were previously unknown, we made pioneering measurements of such powders as a function of gas infiltration. In the past, thermal transport was improved in phase change materials for energy storage by adding spatially homogeneous metal foams or particles into PCMs to create composites with uniformly-enhanced (UE) thermal conductivity. Spatial variation can now be realized due to the emergence of metal AM processes whereby graded AM meshes are inserted into PCMs to create PCM composites with spatially-enhanced (SE) thermal conductivity. As yet, there have been no studies on what kind of spatial variation in thermal conductivity can further improve charge and discharge rates of the PCM. Making such mesh structures, which exhibit unsupported overhangs that limit heat dissipation pathways during SLM processes, demands understanding of heat diffusion within the surrounding powder bed. This inevitably relies on the precise knowledge of the thermal conductivity of AM metal powders. Currently, no measurements of thermal conductivity of AM powders have been made for the SLM process. In chapter 2 and 3, we pioneer and optimize the spatial variation of metal meshes to maximize charge and discharge rates in PCMs. Chapter 2 defines and analytically determines an enhancement ratio of charge rates using spatially-linear thermal conductivities in Cartesian and cylindrical coordinates with a focus on thermal energy storage. Chapter 3 further generalizes thermal conductivity as a polynomial function in space and numerically optimizes the enhancement ratio in spherical coordinates with a focus on thermal management of electronics. Both of our studies find that higher thermal conductivities of SE composites near to the heat source outperform those of UE composites. For selected spherical systems, the enhancement ratio reaches more than 800% relative to existing uniform foams. In chapter 4, the thermal conductivities of five metal powders for the SLM process were measured using the transient hot wire method. These measurements were conducted with three infiltrating gases (He, N2, and Ar) within a temperature range of 295-470 K and a gas pressure range of 1.4-101 kPa. Our measurements indicate that the pressure and the composition of the gas have a significant influence on the effective thermal conductivity of the powder. We find that infiltration with He provides more than 300% enhancement in powder thermal conductivity, relative to conventional infiltrating gases N2 and Ar. We anticipate that this use of He will result in better thermal control of the powder bed and thus will improve surface quality in overhanging structures.

Abstract:
In the present thesis, novel methods devoted to develop high heat transfer efficiency devices have been presented. These methods rely on both novel manufacturing techniques, belonging to the class of additive manufacturing (AM), and thermal and fluid-dynamics studies and optimization procedures. As a first result, optimization of a traditional heat exchanger from a real application, i.e. million of units produced per year, is presented; That is manufactured by extrusion. A thermal fluid-dynamic model is experimentally validated (from an industrial experimental test rig) and used for optimization purposes. Results demonstrate there is room for efficiency optimization even in well established heat transfer devices configurations based on traditional manufacturing techniques. Then, an experimental rig for ''in house'' thermal characterization is designed. It guarantees high precision measurement of small convective heat fluxes (forced air) on enhanced solutions investigated hereinafter, namely micro-structured surfaces and small heat transfer devices. To deal with that challenge, an innovative convective heat flux sensor is developed. That exploits the concept of thermal guard to avoid any spurious perturbation between the flow field and investigated surfaces, while it allows to cancel out terms due to spreading conduction phenomenon. Results demonstrate remarkable accuracy in direct measurement of convective heat fluxes through this novel concept. Relying on the proposed experimental rig, various methods for enhanced convective heat transfer are experimentally investigated. Firstly, regular patterns of micro-protrusions are studied. Effect of fluid-dynamics and geometrical length on heat transfer performances are discussed. More important, they have been applied to develop an optimization procedure tailored to deal with AM techniques. Results from both experimental investigation and optimization procedure suggest the existence of an optimal value of protrusion height, that maximize performance-to-cost ratio for patterns made by AM. Then, surface roughness of components built by DMLS has been investigated as an augmentation heat transfer technique. Surface roughness is controlled varying DMLS process parameters and its effect on convective heat transfer is measured. The results demonstrate a remarkable enhancement in convective heat transfer due to DMLS artificial roughness, in the investigated configurations. That preliminary study unveils the potential of AM artificial roughness as an heat transfer enhancement techniques. It has been considered, by academic and industrial institutions, as an important step towards development of next generation gas turbine components and electronic cooling devices. Finally, extreme flexibility in shape of parts built by DMLS is exploited to design and fabricate in one step an unconventional heat transfer device, called Pitot heat exchanger. Enhanced heat transfer efficiency is achieved, with regard to standard heat exchangers. Nevertheless, the most important achievement has been to highlight unusual morphologies allowed by AM can pave the way to revolutionary changes in conceiving and designing heat transfer components.

Abstract:
abstract: Traditionally, for applications that require heat transfer (e.g. heat exchangers),metals have been the go-to material for manufacturers because of their high thermal as well as structural properties. However, metals have some notable drawbacks. They are not corrosion-resistant, offer no freedom of design, have a high cost of production, and sourcing the material itself. Even though polymers on their own don’t show great prospects in the field of thermal applications, their composites perform better than their counterparts. Nanofillers, when added to a polymer matrix not only increase their structural strength but also their thermal performance. This work aims to tackle two of those problems by using the additive manufacturing method, stereolithography to solve the problem of design freedom, and the use of polymer nanocomposite material for corrosion-resistance and increase their overall thermal performance. In this work, three different concentrations of polymer composite materials were studied: 0.25 wt%, 0.5 wt%, and 1wt% for their thermal conductivity. The samples were prepared by magnetically stirring them for a period of 10 to 24 hours depending on their concentrations and then sonicating in an ice bath further for a period of 2 to 3 hours. These samples were then tested for their thermal conductivities using a Hot Disk TPS 2500S. Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) to study the dispersion of the nanoparticles in the matrix. Different theoretical models were studied and used to compare experimental data to the predicted values of effective thermal conductivity. An increase of 7.9 % in thermal conductivity of the composite material was recorded for just 1 wt% addition of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs).

Abstract:

With the extreme increases in power density of electronic devices, the contact thermal resistance imposed at interfaces between mating solids becomes a major challenge in thermal management. This contact thermal resistance is mainly caused by micro-scale surface asperities (roughness) and wavy profile of surface (nonflatness) which severely reduce the contact area available for heat conduction. High contact pressures (1~100 MPa) can be used to deform the surface asperities to increase contact area. Besides, a variety of conventional thermal interface materials (TIM), such as greases and pastes, are used to improve the contact thermal conductance by filling the remaining air gaps. However, there are still some applications where such TIMs are disallowed for reworkability concerns. For example, heat must be transferred across dry interfaces to a heat sink in pluggable opto-electronic transceivers which needs to repeatedly slide into / out of contact with the heat sink. Dry contact and low contact pressures are required for this sliding application.

This dissertation presents a metallized micro-spring array as a surface coating to enhance dry contact thermal conductance under ultra-low interfacial contact pressure. The shape of the micro-springs is designed to be mechanically compliant to achieve conformal contact between nonflat surfaces. The polymer scaffolds of the micro-structured TIMs are fabricated by using a custom projection micro-stereolithography (μSL) system. By applying the projection scheme, this method is more cost-effective and high-throughput than other 3D micro-fabrication methods using a scanning scheme. The thermal conductance of polymer micro-springs is further enhanced by metallization using plating and surface polishing on their top surfaces. The measured mechanical compliance of TIMs indicates that they can deform ~10s μm under ~10s kPa contact pressures over their footprint area, which is large enough to accommodate most of surface nonflatness of electronic packages. The measured thermal resistances of the TIM at different fabrication stages confirms the enhanced thermal conductance by applying metallization and surface polishing. Thermal resistances of the TIMs are compared to direct metal-to-metal contact thermal resistance for flat and nonflat mating surfaces, which confirms that the TIM outperforms direct contact. A thin layer of soft polymer is coated on the top surfaces of the TIMs to accommodate surface roughness that has a smaller spatial period than the micro-springs. For rough surfaces, the polymer-coated TIM has reduced thermal resistance which is comparable to a benchmark case where the top surfaces of the TIM are glued to the mating surface. A polymer base is designed under the micro-spring array which can provide the advantages for handling as a standalone material or integration convenience, at the toll of an increased insertion resistance. Through-holes are designed in the base layer and coated with thermally conductive metal after metallization to enhance thermal conductance of the base layer; a thin layer of epoxy is applied between the base layer and the working surface to reduce contact thermal resistance exposed on the base layer. Cycling tests are conducted on the TIMs; the results show good early-stage reliability of the TIM under normal pressure, sliding contact, and temperature cycles. The TIM is thermally demonstrated on a pluggable application, namely, a CFP4 module, which shows enhanced thermal conductance by applying the TIM.

To further enhance the potential mechanical compliance of microstructured surfaces, a stable double curved beam structure with near-zero stiffness composed of intrinsic negative and positive stiffness elastic elements is designed and fabricated by introducing residual stresses. Stiffness measurements shows that the positive-stiffness single curved beam, which is the same as the top beam in the double curved beam, is stiffer than the double curved beam, which confirms the negative stiffness of the bottom beam in the double curved beam. Layered near zero-stiffness materials made of these structures are built to demonstrate the scalability of the zero-stiffness zone.

Abstract:
The laser metal deposition process possesses the combination of metallic powder and laser beam respectively. However, these combinations create an adhesive bonding that permanently solidifies the laser-enhanced-deposited powders. Titanium alloys (Ti6Al4V) Grade 5 have been regarded as the most used alloys for the aerospace applications, due to their lightweight properties and marine application due to their excellent corrosion resistance. The improvements in the surface integrity of the alloy have been achieved successively with the addition of Cu through the use of Ytterbium laser system powered at maximum of 2000 Watts. The motivation for this research work can be attributed to the dilapidation of the surface of titanium alloy, when exposed to marine or sea water for a longer period of time. This chapter provides the surface modification of titanium alloy with the addition of percentage range of Cu within its lattices; and the results obtained from the characterizations conducted on the laser deposited Ti6Al4V/Cu alloys have been improved.

Additive Manufacturing or three-dimensional printing refers to a process of building lighter, stronger three-dimensional parts, manufactured layer by layer. Additive manufacturing uses a computer and CAD software which passes the program to the printer to build the desired shape. Metals, thermoplastic polymers, and ceramics are the preferred materials used for additive manufacturing. Fused deposition modeling is one additive manufacturing technique involving the use of thermoplastic polymer for creating desired shape. Carbon fibers can be added into polymer to strengthen the composite without adding additional weight. Present work deals with the manufacturing of Carbon fiber-reinforced Polylactic Acid composites prepared using fused deposition modeling. Mechanical and thermo-mechanical properties of composites are studied as per ASTM standards and using sophisticated instruments. It is observed that there is enhancement in thermo-mechanical properties of composites due to addition reinforcement which is discussed in detail.

Heart valve prostheses are well known and can be classified in two major types or categories: biological and mechanical. Biological valves (i.e., Homografts and Heterografts) make use of animal tissue as the valving mechanism whereas mechanical valves make use of balls, disks, and other mechanical valving mechanism. Mechanical valves carry considerable risk and require lifelong medication. The design of these valves is usually done on a “one size fits all” basis, with only the diameter changing depending on the model being produced. The author seeks to present an application of additive manufacturing in the design process for mechanical valves. This is expected to provide patients with customized prostheses to match their physiology and reduce the risk associated with the implantation.

Abstract:
Abstract The current work presents an understanding of microstructure and mechanical properties as a function of build geometry and build orientation in Cu-Cr-Zr via the laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) technique. Porosity, microstructure, and mechanical properties have been compared in the as-printed (AP) and heat treated (HT) LPBF Cu-Cr-Zr, between cylindrical and cube geometries, along the longitudinal (L) and transverse (T) build orientations. Varying porosity levels were observed that yielded parts with 96–97% relative density in the AP condition. The AP microstructure, characterized by a combination of optical and electron microscopic techniques, demonstrated a hierarchical microstructure, comprising of grains (2.5–100 μm) with a cellular substructure (400–850 nm) and intracellular nanoscale (20–60 nm) precipitates enriched in Cu and Zr. Unlike most materials in the AP condition, crystallographic texture was found to be absent; however, very distinct river like patterns highlighted a novel characteristic of the LPBF Cu-Cr-Zr. Upon solutionizing and aging, Cr precipitates were seen heterogeneously nucleating along cell boundaries (0.5–1.3 μm), causing up to 45% enhancement in the strength and a 4–5% lower ductility. The yield strength along the transverse orientation was 10–16% higher than that of longitudinal orientation, in both the AP and HT conditions. Fracture surface of the tensile samples exhibited micro-voids and cleavage facets and unmelted particles. In spite of the observed defects, the overall mechanical properties matched well with those obtained in nearly dense (> 99%) samples and the mechanical property debit was less than 10%.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper presents an undergraduate research project developed to enhance mechanical engineering education at the University of Oklahoma. Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) is a promising additive manufacturing method for high-temperature materials with high spatial resolution and surface quality. As one of the most capable engineering-grade thermoplastics, polyether ketone (PEEK) can be used in additive manufacturing due to its elevated working temperature. This printer will use multiple heat zones, adjustable layer height, and a controlled hopper system to allow the user to fine-tune every print. In this paper, students are required to analyze the technical challenges of SLS based 3D printing technology. Using three separate controlled heat zones, the user will be able to hold the part above its glass transition temperature until the entire part finishes, therefore, annealing it in the process. This will additionally allow for testing and documentation of the effect of heat during preheating, pre-sintering, and post sintering. These features in a small-scale machine will allow thorough documentation of how controlled heated environments can alter the physical properties of a 3D printed part. Using a full steel platform with CNC machined parts and an off the shelf laser, the cost will be reduced to under ten thousand dollars. This undergraduate project to design an SLS based 3D printer provide a unique opportunity for students to fully understand the challenges of SLS manufacturing and gain experience in developing a complex 3D printing system.

Abstract:
Abstract Additive manufacturing processes, such as direct metal laser sintering (DMLS), enable creation of novel turbine cooling internal passages and systems. However, the DMLS method produces a significant and unique surface roughness. Previous work in scaled passages analyzed pressure losses and friction factors associated with the rough surfaces, as well as investigated the velocity profiles and turbulent flow characteristics within the passage. In this study, the heat transfer characteristics of scaled additively manufactured surfaces were measured using infrared (IR) thermography. Roughness panels were CNC machined from plates of aluminum 6061 to create near isothermal roughness elements when heated. Fluid resistance differences between the aluminum roughness panels and roughness panels constructed from ABS plastic using the same roughness patterns from McClain et al. (2020) were investigated. Finally, the overall thermal performance enhancements and friction losses were assessed through calculation of surface averaged “global thermal performance” ratios. The global thermal performance characterizations indicate results in-line with those found for traditional commercial roughness and slightly below traditional internal passage convection enhancement methods such as swirl chambers, dimples, and ribs. The passages investigated in this study do not include compressibility effects or the long-wavelength artifacts and channel geometric deviations observed by Wildgoose et al. (2020). However, the results of this study indicate that, based on the roughness augmentation alone, artificial convective cooling enhancers such as turbulators or dimples may still be required for additively manufactured turbine component cooling.

Abstract:
Abstract Additive manufacturing (AM) is a novel technology which allows fabrication of complex geometries from digital representations without tooling. In addition, this technology results in low material waste, short lead times and cost reduction especially for the production of parts in low quantities. Current additive manufacturing processes developed for thermoplastic sandwich panels suffer from an unavoidable weak mechanical performance and low thermal resistance. To overcome these limitations, emphasis is paid in this study on direct write AM technology for the fabrication of short carbon fiber-reinforced sandwich panel composites. Sandwich panels using different infill densities with high strength (> 107 MPa), and high short carbon fiber volume (46%) were attained successfully. In parallel to the strength enhancement, these sandwich panels possessed reduced densities (0.72 g/cc3) due to their lightweight lattice core structures. The mechanical performance of the created sandwich panels was examined and compared to the unreinforced, base ink structures by performing compression tests. Successful fabrication and characterization of the additively manufactured thermoset-based carbon fiber reinforced, sandwich panels in this study can extend the range of applications for AM composites that require lightweight structures, high mechanical performance as well as the desired component complexity.

Abstract:
Abstract The surface integrity of Titanium alloy may be improved by surface modification, to expand its availability for more diverse industrial applications. Additive manufacturing is a commercially competitive manufacturing technique with the possibility of altering the entire perception of design and fabrication. The study experimentally investigates the effects that Ytterbium Laser System process parameters, such as laser power, powder feed rate and traverse speed, has on the resultant microstructure of Ti-6Al-4V grade 5 alloy. The deposition process was conducted employing a 3kW (CW) Ytterbium Laser System (YLS-2000-TR) machine, coaxial to the reinforcement powder. The laser scanning speed and power were varied between the intervals of 1–1.2 m/min and 900–1000 W. All other parameters kept constant were the rate of gas flow, the spot diameter, and the rate of powder flow. The microstructure was characterized by grain size and morphology by using Optical Microscopy (OM) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). During the DLMD process, the thermal histories induced in the process led to the promotion of the transformed α+β microstructure from the initial primary a microstructure; the growth and evolution of the distinct grain morphologies and stability of the alpha and beta structures upon increased and reduced structures. It was ascertained that by increasing the traverse speeds, the cooling rates increased, which resulted in the decrease in the width of the columnar grains.

Abstract:
In this study, the microstructure analysis and nanoindentation characterization from electron beam additive manufacturing (EBAM) were experimentally investigated. Specimens with different build heights of an EBAM built part were tested for microstructure observations by optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The correspondent Young’s modulus and hardness were measured by nanoindentation. Columnar prior β structure is found along the build direction from the X-plane, while the Z-plane is characterized by equiaxed grains and fine Widmanstätten (α+β) structure. The microstructure varies along the build height: the top layers present finer columnar prior β grains and inside Widmanstätten (α+β) structure, while the bottom layers show bigger percentage of α′ martensitic phase owing to the very high cooling rate. Nanoindentation tests identify the highest Young’s modulus of 127.9 GPa and hardness of 6.5 GPa from the top layers of Z-plane. The Young’s modulus and hardness of the middle layers are lower because of the repeated heating. The Z-plane shows higher mechanical properties compared to that of the X-plane. The enhancement of modulus and hardness of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy could be attributed to the strengthening phase of α′ and fine microstructure.

Abstract:
Abstract Additive manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing technology, is applied to fabricate complex fin structures for heat transfer enhancement at inner surface of tubes, which conventional manufacturing technology cannot make. This work considered rectangular fins, scale fins, and delta fins with staggered alignment at the inner wall of heat transfer tubes for heat transfer enhancement of internal flows. Designed fin structures are trial-printed using plastic material to exam the printability. Laminar flow convective heat transfer has been numerically studied, and heat transfer performance of the tubes with 3D-printed interrupted fins has been compared to that with conventional straight continued fins. The benefit from heat transfer enhancement and the loss due to increased pumping pressure is evaluated using the total entropy generation rate in the control volume of heat transfer tube. As the conclusion of the study, better heat transfer tubes with 3D-printed internal fins are recommended.
