Variables Used
Specific Heat Capacity - (Measured in Joule per Kilogram per K) - Specific Heat Capacity is the heat required to raise the temperature of the unit mass of a given substance by a given amount.
Heat Energy - (Measured in Joule) - Heat Energy is the amount of total heat required.
Material Reflectivity - Material Reflectivity is the ratio of amount of radiation that is reflected to the total radiation incident.
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.
Volume of Metal Melted - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of Metal Melted is defined as the volume of the material removed during the process of Laser Beam Machining.
Latent Heat of Fusion - (Measured in Joule per Kilogram) - 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.
Melting Temperature of Base Metal - (Measured in Kelvin) - Melting Temperature of Base Metal is the temperature at which its phase changes to liquid to solid.
Ambient Temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - Ambient Temperature is the temperature of the surrounding.

How does Laser Beam Machining work ?

Laser (light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation) beam machining (LBM) utilises the energy from the coherent light beams called laser (light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation). The basic principle utilised in LBM is that under proper conditions light energy of a particular frequency is used to stimulate the electrons in an atom to emit additional light with exactly the same characteristics of the original light source.
