Wire-Arc Thermal & Interpass Planner
Calculate net arc heat input and document interpass timing with an optional user-owned lumped cooling calibration.
Method, scope and scientific boundary
Method. Net line energy is eta*V*I/travel speed. Optional cooling time uses a first-order lumped exponential fitted or supplied by the user; it is not a residual-stress simulation.
