description abstractA finite element (FE) approach is developed to investigate the laser spot welding (LSW) of flatplate solar absorbers and the stress and distortion fields that develop after fabrication and during operation. Numerical calculations at two different levels are carried out. At a microscopic scale, the details of a spot weld are analyzed. At a macroscopic level, a global approach is used to simulate the joining of the pipeline to the absorber plate and the “restorationâ€‌ (flattening) process of the absorber. The simulated weldinginduced distortion is compared with experimental measurements. The thermomechanical behavior of a solar absorber under working conditions is also studied and operational stresses and the critical locations for structural failure are reported.
