Abstract
Nitrogen is now used in wave soldering machines to help lower the amount of dross that can be formed on the solder bath surface. This paper provides details on the use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in helping understand the flow profiles of nitrogen in a wave soldering machine and to predict the concentration of nitrogen and oxygen around the solder bath
