This study analyzes the effect of groove height and powder inlet angle on the powder output characteristics in the Direct Laser Metal Deposition (DLMD) process using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation. The nozzle design was created in SolidWorks with variations in groove height of 35 mm, 40 mm, and 45 mm and inlet angles of 20°, 25°, and 30°, resulting in nine configurations. The …
