To better control the Inconel617 electron beam cladding solidification process, a three-dimensional temperature field model was built to simulate the temperature gradient, cooling rate, and solidification rate in the solidification process and take a deep dive into the solidification behavior, as well as the calculation of the solidification characteristic parameters at the edge of the molten pool and then predict the solidification tissue structure. The study shows that the largest temperature gradient occurred in the material thickness direction. The self-cooling effect of the material dominated the solidification of the alloy layer; the cooling rate depended on the high-temperature thermal conductivity of the material and the self-cooling effect of the matrix, and the maximum cooling rate in the bonding zone was 1380 °C/s. The steady-state solidification rate was equal to the moving speed of the heat source; the solidification characteristics of the solidification process at the edge of the molten pool increased with the distance from the surface: the cooling rate decreased from 1421.61 to 623 °C/s, the temperature gradient increased from 0.0723 × 106 to 0.417 × 106, and the solidification rate decreased from 0.01 to 0 m/s. The prediction was made that the small and thin equiaxed crystals are on the top, a thin and short dendritic transition structure in the middle, and relatively coarse dendrites at the bottom. Experiments confirmed that the solidification tissue structure is basically consistent with the simulation law.
