Hi all,

I want to simulate a model in which a plate is heated by moving laser (line heat source).
please help me giving some clue........

My problem for following:
"Two thin steel plates are welded using a laser beam with conditions:
Power input: 6 [kW]
Plate thickness: 2.5 [mm]
Welding speed: 50 [mm/s]
Initial plate temperature: 25 [degC]

-----material-----
Density: 7870 [kg/m^3]
Specific heat: 452 [J/kg K]
Thermal conductivity: 73 [W/mK] "

Thank you very much!
