This research work analyses the thermal, metallurgical and physical stages of AISI 304 Stainless Steel-Copper dissimilar couple during laser welding in keyhole mode numerically and then validated experimentally. 10.6 μm wavelength CO2 laser welding machine is used for conducting this experimental analysis and the process is simulated by finite volume method. For making the dissimilar couple, a volumetric Gaussian heat source is applied symmetrically on the both metal domain and it is getting an asymmetric molten pool shape. It is observed that the computational model have good concurrence with the experimental results, after the calibration between simulation and experimental results for the same parameter set.
