| 总结: | In industries’ welding plays a vital role in joining process. Many of the structures
presently built in space rockets, deep diving submarines and very heavy containment vessels
for nuclear reactors could not have been constructed without the proper application of
welding technology. It is well known fact that during welding the metal at the welding zone
gets melted and then solidifies, which results in shrinkage in all the directions. Residual strain
and stress distributions coming from shrinking are largely influenced by the nature and
configuration of the welding process, metallurgical characteristics of weld and the
geometrical shape of the weld joint. The material characteristic mainly depends on the
thermal history cycle through which the specimen goes through in the process. So these
thermal history cycles are to be known in order to get a better knowledge of the welding
phenomenon and to minimize the risk of failures.
This work describes the detail finite element procedure for determination of heat flow
pattern and stress distribution on cylinder modeled with stainless steel and aluminum during
welding. In this, Modified Double Ellipsoidal Distribution Pattern was modeled and
considered for the weld pool design. Elasto-plastic material properties at various temperatures
were also considered for simulation. A variable welding speed was used during welding and
effect of the nonlinear welding speed was also studied. Transient thermal histories at various
points were determined and compared with available published data. The cooling curve could
be obtained from the descending region of the Transient thermal histories curve at various
locations. By this metallurgical characteristic of the material at the weld zone and heat
affected zone can be obtained during welding simulation process. The problems of distortion
and stress distribution were also carried out. A customized programming was developed to
for the welding simulation. |
