A mathematical model is developed to describe the globular transfer in gas metal arc welding (GMAW). This work is both theoretical
and experimental. Using the volume-of-fluid (VOF) method, the fluid-flow and heat-transfer phenomena are dynamically studied
during the following processes: droplet formation and detachment, impingement of a droplet on a solid substrate, impingement
of multiple droplets on the molten pool, and solidification after the arc extinguishes. A He-Ne laser, in conjunction with
the shadow graphing technique, is used to observe the metal transfer processes. Theoretical predictions and experimental results
are in close agreement, suggesting that the theoretical treatment of the model is good. 相似文献

Compared with using semi-automatic gas shielded arc welding, using automatic TANDEM twin wire welding and twin wire gas metal arc welding (GMAW) to weld Q690 steel, a low-alloy high-strength structural steel used in the hydraulic support in the fully-mechanized mining face, the welding speed, deposition rate, production environment and welding quality can be obviously improved. Compared with GMAW twin wire welding, a refined microstructure in the weld and heat-affected zone (HAZ), narrow HAZ and improved joint strength were achieved with TANDEM on Q690. Also, due to the push-pull pulsed way in TANDEM welding, the droplet transfer, distribution on heat flow and interaction between two arcs were completely different from those in GMAW twin wire system. The heat input of TANDEM is only about 766% of GMAW, and correspondingly, the welding speed and welding seam can be obviously improved. The complete oscillation caused by TANDEM pulsed current occurred in the welding pool, which refined the grains in the microstructure. The results show that TANDEM twin wire welding is very suitable in the welding of Q690 used in the hydraulic support. 相似文献

Numerical analysis of metal transfer in gas metal arc welding under modified pulsed current conditions 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A method has been proposed to pulsate current in gas metal arc welding (GMAW) to achieve a specific type of desirable and
repeatable metal transfer mode, i.e., one drop per pulse (ODPP) mode. This method uses a peak current lower than the transition current to prevent accidental
detachment and takes advantage of the downward momentum of the droplet oscillation to enhance the detachment. A numerical
model with advanced computational fluid dynamics (CFD) techniques, such as a two-step projection method, volume of fluid (VOF)
method, and continuum surface force (CSF) model, was used to carry out the simulation for the metal transfer process. The
Gauss-type current density distribution was assumed as the boundary condition for the calculation of the electromagnetic force.
The calculations were conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in achieving the desired metal transfer
process in comparison with conventional pulsed current GMAW. Also, the critical conditions for effective use of this proposed
method were identified by the numerical simulation. Comparison showed good agreement between calculation and experimental
results. 相似文献

Cable-type welding wire (CWW)CO2 welding is an innovative process arc welding with high quality,high efficiency and energy saving,in which CWW is used as consumable electrode.The CWW is composed of seven wires with a diameter of 1.2 mm.One is in the center,while others uniformly distribute around it.The diameter of twisted wire is up to 3.6 mm,which can increase the deposition rate significantly.With continual wire-feeding and melting of CWW,the formed rotating arc improved welding quality obviously.The arc behavior and droplet transfer were ob-served by the electrical signal waveforms and corresponding synchronous images,based on the high speed digital camera and electrical signal system.The results showed that the shape of welding arc changed from bell arc to beam arc with the increase of welding parameter.The droplet transfer mode changed from repelled transfer,globular transfer to projected transfer in turn.Droplet transfer frequency increased from 18.17 Hz to 119.05 Hz,while the droplet diameter decreased from 1.5 times to 0.3 times of the CWW diameter. 相似文献

High-speed photography is utilized to capture an image of the arc area during the welding process.The variation in arc shape and droplet transfer behavior is compared when employing shielding gases of different components and proportions(e.g.,80%Ar+20%CO2,85%Ar+10%CO2+5%O2,65%Ar+26.5%He+8%CO2+0.5%O2)using a φ1.2 mm welding wire under 360 A current.Furthermore,the effects of various shielding gas components on the stability of the welding process are discussed.It was determined that the addition of oxygen and helium changed the arc's shape and the behavior of the droplet transfer,and the welding process stability increased. 相似文献

This article presents a mathematical model simulating the effects of surface tension (Maragoni effect) on weld pool fluid
flow and weld penetration in spot gas metal arc welding (GMAW). Filler droplets driven by gravity, electromagnetic force,
and plasma arc drag force, carrying mass, thermal energy, and momentum, periodically impinge onto the weld pool. Complicated
fluid flow in the weld pool is influenced by the droplet impinging momentum, electromagnetic force, and natural convection
due to temperature and concentration gradients, and by surface tension, which is a function of both temperature and concentration
of a surface active element (sulfur in the present study). Although the droplet impinging momentum creates a complex fluid
flow near the weld pool surface, the momentum is damped out by an “up-and-down” fluid motion. A numerical study has shown
that, depending upon the droplet’s sulfur content, which is different from that in the base metal, an inward or outward surface
flow of the weld pool may be created, leading to deep or shallow weld penetration. In other words, it is primarily the Marangoni
effect that contributes to weld penetration in spot GMAW. 相似文献

Shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) and metal inert gas (GMAW) welding process are the two most widely used welding processes. These processes are widely used for the construction and fabrication purpose in almost all type of industries. Some of the important factors which govern the weld quality in these welding processes are welding power sources, role of shielding gas (for GMAW process), welding consumables and skill of the welders. Currently, effects of these factors are evaluated by examining the quality of the weld produced and not by monitoring how welding process is affected by change in these factors. This is an indirect method because actual contribution made by individual parameter in physical process is effectively ignored. Further, this is expensive and time-consuming as the assessment can be carried out only after the weld is completed. Hence, a procedure to assess the quality of welding process using the data acquired while welding is in progress is preferred to testing of the weld for this purpose. In both SMAW and GMAW processes, welding speed, voltage and current are important parameters that affect the quality of the welds. Among these, monitoring of welding speed is relatively easy; but monitoring voltage and current is not. This is because, welding is a stochastic process in which wide variation in voltage and current occurs and duration of these variations is so short that they are not observed in the voltage and current displayed in the power source. However, with the help of a high-speed data acquisition system, voltage and current variations during actual welding process can be recorded and subsequently analysed to reveal very useful information on the welding process, and subsequently quality analysis of individual welding parameters can also be done. In the present study, the voltage and current signals acquired using a digital storage oscilloscope have been used to study SMAW and GMAW processes. Data was acquired for duration of 20 s at a sampling rate of 100,000 samples/s while welding is in progress. In the case of SMAW process, welding data was acquired for welds made using different welding power sources, but with same welder and same type of electrode. In the case of GMAW process, welds were made using same wire and same welder but with different gases for shielding and at different set currents. Dynamic variation in the voltage and current signals were carefully studied using time domain and statistical analyses. Results showed that differences in the characteristics of the different power sources used for SMAW process and effect of shielding gases and arc current on GMAW process could be easily revealed by such analysis. For SMAW process, results obtained could also be correlated with the appearance of the weld beads. Hence, a procedure involving high-speed data acquisition of voltage and current signal while welding is in progress and the statistical analysis of the acquired data have been proposed for monitoring of these two arc welding processes. 相似文献

Structure-property relationships of two HY-100 steel weldments prepared by submerged arc (SAW) and gas metal arc (GMAW) welding processes using identical heat input (2.2 kJ mm-1) have been studied. It has been found that submerged arc welded (SAW) HY-100 steel weldments have a lower weld toughness than welds produced by the gas metal arc welding (GMAW) process. Optical, scanning, and transmission electron microscopy were used in conjunction with microhardness traverses to characterize and compare the various microconstituents that are present in the last weld pass of both weldments. TEM examination revealed the presence of coarse upper bainite, B-II bainite, and carbides in a highly dislocated ferrite matrix as well as in ferrite laths in the SAW weldment, while the GMAW weldment exhibited a typical fine low carbon lath martensite, autotempered martensite, and mixed B-II and B-III bainites which occasionally contained small regions of twinned martensite. The measured cooling rate in the SAW was found to be about 40 pct slower than that in GMAW. It was also found in the SAW that the weld metal inclusion number density was about 25 pct greater than that in GMAW. Micro-hardness traverses exhibited significantly lower hardness (about 50 HV) in the SAW weldment compared with GMAW, but the tempered weld metal microhardness in both the weldments was measured about the same, at 250 HV. The ductile-to-brittle transition temperature (DBTT) of both weldments was determined by Charpy impact test. Based on an average energy criterion, the DBTT of the SAW weldment was 323 K (50 °C) higher than that of the GMAW weldment. This difference in fracture resistance is due to the different weld metal microstructures. The different microstructures most probably result from differences in cooling rate subsequent to welding; however, the SAW weld also has a higher inclusion number density which could promote a higher transformation temperature for the austenite. 相似文献

This article describes a theoretical investigation on the arc parameters and metal transfer in gas metal arc welding (GMAW)
of mild steel using argon and helium shielding gases. Major differences in the predicted arc parameters were determined to
be due to large differences in thermophysical properties. Various findings from the study include that an arc cannot be struck
in a pure helium atmosphere without the assistance of metal vapor, that a strong electromagnetic cathode force affects the
fluid flow and heat transfer in the helium arc, providing a possible explanation for the experimentally observed globular
transfer mode and that the tapering of the electrode in an argon arc is caused by electron condensation on the side of the
electrode.

Temperature and velocity fields, and weld pool geometry during gas metal arc welding (GMAW) of commercially pure aluminum were predicted by solving equations of conservation of mass, energy and momentum in a three-dimensional transient model. Influence of welding speed was studied. In order to validate the model, welding experiments were conducted under the similar conditions. The calculated geometry of the weld pool were in good agreement with the corresponding experimental results. It was found that an increase in the welding speed results in a decrease peak temperature and maximum velocity in the weld pool, weld pool dimensions and width of the heat-affected zone (HAZ). Dimensionless analyses were employed to understand the importance of heat transfer by convection and the roles of various driving forces in the weld pool. According to dimensionless analyses droplet driving force strongly affected fluid flow in the weld pool. 相似文献

A study was conducted on dilution of single pass arc welds of type 308 stainless steel filler metal deposited onto A36 carbon steel by the plasma arc welding (PAW), gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), gas metal arc welding (GMAW), and submerged are welding (SAW) processes. Knowledge of the arc and melting efficiency was used in a simple energy balance to develop an expression for dilution as a function of welding variables and thermophysical properties of the filler metal and substrate. Comparison of calculated and experimentally determined dilution values shows the approach provides reasonable predictions of dilution when the melting efficiency can be accurately predicted. The conditions under which such accuracy is obtained are discussed. A diagram is developed from the dilution equation which readily reveals the effect of processing parameters on dilution to aid in parameter optimization. 相似文献

In the modeling of the gas metal-arc (GMA) welding process, heat inputs to the workpiece by the arc and the metal transfers
have been considered separately. The heat energy delivered due to the metal transfer has been approximated in the form of
a cylindrical volumetric heat source, whose dimensions of the radius and the height are dependent on the molten metal droplet
characteristics. The pinch instability theory (PIT) and the static force balance theory (SFBT) of drop detachment have independently
been used to obtain the expressions for various characteristics of the drop,i.e., the drop radius, the drop velocity, and the drop frequency at various welding parameters. The occurrence or the nonoccurrence
of finger penetration, routinely found in the GMA welding at high welding currents, has been satisfactorily explained by the
cylindrical heat source model. The effect of various welding parameters,e.g., the welding current, the wire radiusetc., on the weld bead penetration characteristics has been investigated. In this modeling effort, the heat conduction equation
has been solved in three dimensions. 相似文献

Effect of Heat Input on Fume Generation and Joint Properties of Gas Metal Arc Welded Austenitic Stainless Steel 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effect of heat input on fume and their compositions during gas metal arc welding (GMAW) of AISI 316 stainless steel plates are investigated. Fume generation rate (FGR) and fume percentage were determined by ANSI/AWS F12 methods. Particle characterization was performed with SEM-XEDS and XRF analysis to reveal the particle morphology and chemical composition of the fume particles. The SEM analysis reveals the morphology of particles having three distinct shapes namely spherical, irregular, and agglomerated. Spherical particles were the most abundant type of individual particle. All the fume particle size falls in the range of less than 100 nm. Mechanical properties (strength, hardness and toughness) and microstructural analysis of the weld deposits were evaluated. It is found that heat input of 115 kJ/mm is beneficial to weld stainless steel by GMAW process due to lower level of welding fume emissions and superior mechanical properties of the joints. 相似文献

Submerged arc welding(SAW)and gas metal arc welding(GMAW)experiments of Nb-bearing X80 steel were conducted with high-toughness wires.The inclusions in weld metals were analyzed in terms of their types and sizes.In GMAW,the inclusions are primarily Ti,Ca,Si,Al,and Mg compounds with no Nb and are generally less than 0.8 pm in size,whereas,in SAW weld,the inclusions are larger,mostly approximately 2-5 μm in size,and are cored with Ca and Ti,exhibiting obvious oxidation metallurgical features.The SAW joint was hot-deformed,and Nb-bearing nano precipitates were newly found in the weld metal through transmission electron microscopy,and Nb-free core-shell inclusion was found through scanning electron microscopy.The inclusions and precipitates were dispersed in or on the boundaries of acicular ferrite,contributing to acicular ferrite nucleation and grain refinement. 相似文献

搭建了双电弧集成冷丝复合焊接系统,研究了冷丝不同位置对焊接过程的影响机理,其中包括冷丝作用位置对其加热熔化作用及表面成形的影响。实验结果表明:冷丝从两引导焊丝正前方送入时,熔池前端对冷丝的加热熔化作用不充分,冷丝末端会顶触熔池底部,随着冷丝的持续送进和母材的向后移动,某一时刻冷丝回弹,焊丝末端的熔滴弹出落在母材表面形成大颗粒飞溅。当冷丝从侧面送入时,熔池一侧的温度较低,影响熔池金属的流动,导致最终的焊缝成形不对称分布。当冷丝从两引导焊丝正后方送入熔池时,冷丝始终插入熔池中,焊接过程稳定,是理想的冷丝作用位置。此外,随着冷丝送丝速度的增加,两种脉冲电流模式(同相和反相)下,熔敷率均随之增加,且相差不大。同相脉冲电流下电弧对冷丝的加热熔化作用最强烈,反相脉冲电流下次之,直流模式下最弱。 相似文献

The performance of the pulsed-current gas metal arc welding (GMAW) process for vertical-up weld deposition of steel has been
found to be superior over the use of the short-circuiting arc GMAW process with respect to the tensile, impact, and fatigue
properties of the weld joint. The microstructure, weld geometry, and mechanical properties of a pulsed-current weld joint
are largely governed by the pulse parameters, and correlate well to the factor φ, defined as a summarized influence of pulse parameters such as peak current, base current, pulse-off time, and pulse frequency.
The increase of φ has been found favorable to refine the microstructure and enhance the tensile strength, C
v
toughness, and fatigue life of a weld joint. The fatigue life of a short-circuiting arc weld joint has been found to be markedly
reduced due to the presence of an undercut at the weld toe and incomplete side-wall fusion of the base material. 相似文献

Numerical analysis of metal transfer in gas metal arc welding 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The present article describes a numerical procedure to simulate metal transfer and the model will be used to analyze the transport
processes involved in gas metal arc welding (GMAW). Advanced Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) techniques used in this model
include a two-step projection method for solving the incompressible fluid flow; a volume of fluid (VOF) method for capturing
free surface; and a continuum surface force (CSF) model for calculating surface tension. The electromagnetic force due to
the welding current is estimated by assuming several different types of current density distribution on the free surface of
the drop. The simulations based on the assumption of Gaussian current density distribution show that the transition from globular
to spray transfer mode occurs over a narrow current range and the size of detached drops is nonuniform in this transition
zone. The analysis of the calculation results gives a better understanding of this physical procedure. Comparisons between
calculated results and experimental results are presented. It is found that the results computed from the Gaussian assumption
agree well with those observed in experiments. 相似文献
