Abstract

Numerical simulation results obtained in investigating laser paint removal from different metal substrates, mainly aluminum and aluminum alloys, are presented. The main purpose of the developed simulation model is to define the laser installation specifications required for an operation that does not affect the substrate on which the paint is deposited. This is an important laser application in aeronautical industry. The developed simulation model considers transverse laser beam intensity distribution and, consequently, the temperature distribution in the processed mechanical component.
