Aiming at the characteristics of Inconel 718 material such as high work hardening rate and large cutting temperature variation, the machining mechanism and modeling of Inconel 718 were deeply studied by taking the discharge machining process of wire electrical discharge machining as the research object. The temperature field of single-pulse discharge is analyzed by the finite difference method and finite element simulation, and the theoretical and simulation temperature distribution results under given parameters are obtained. Furthermore, the law of the influence of pulse width on the size and shape of the corrosion pit is further explored. On the basis of considering the influence of the recast layer on the size of the pit, the surface roughness and material removal rate of machining are predicted and compared with the experimental data. The results show that with the change of pulse width, the variation trend of the theoretical and simulated electric pit dimensions is consistent. The maximum error between theoretical and simulation data and experimental results is 9.88%.
