Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Accurate temperature control is required in advanced heat treatment processes such as composite curing. The crux is how to determine the appropriate heat sources which would result in the required temperature distribution during part heating process. This paper presents a new thermal control method using digital image based programming, which efficiently and accurately estimates required heat sources and controls temperature distribution in a step-wise numerical manner. The method was validated in both simulation and real heating tests for microwave curing of composites, showing excellent temperature uniformity and consistency with given target temperature profiles, compared with existing technologies.& COPY; 2023 CIRP.
