hi,

I am beginner.
I want to simulate a model in which a plate is heated by moving laser (not a point heat source).
please help me giving some clue........

thanks in advance...........!

I know how to model laser heating, but I don't know how to specify that the beam is gaussian rather than a point.

Hi

simply replace your input field I0[W/m^2] by an expresion of "x", or x" and "y" in 2D.
à la

I0*exp((x-X0)^2+(y-Y0)^2/sig^2).

Where X0, Y0 is the cntre of you gaussian beam

Or whatever other expression that fits your need

Good luck
Ivar

Emily:

I'm trying to model the laser heating with moving in a line with some velocity. I do not know how to model it can you please guide me? I'm a pretty new user of COMSOL.

Thanks,
Hitesh

dear hitesh,

You just have to replace x0 by v*t in the above expression stated by Mr. Ivar.
Still if u find some difficulty doing it, u can mail me at yogesh.chukewad@gmail.com...

yogesh
