Underwater Friction Stir Welding

Friction stir welding (FSW), a new joining process is finding extensive use in the welding of aluminum alloy sheets. The metal transfer modes in the FSW cause the quality of the weld and its properties. The first mode of metal transfer is accomplished by the tool and shoulder, while the second mode occurs around the pin. In the present study, two different welding conditions, which were friction stir welding in the air (CFSW) and underwater friction stir welding (UWFSW) carried out at various welding parameters to weld the AA5052-O aluminum alloy sheets and determine the consequence of the first mode on the tensile strength of welded joints. Considerable grain refinement and enhanced mechanical properties were obtained in UWFSW joints. It Is observed that the first mode affect the tensile strength of the joint, also found that a linear correlation between the first mode and the tensile strength.

Microstructural Studies

As compared to normal Friction Stir Welding (FSW) joints, the Underwater Friction Stir Welding (UFSW) has been reported to be obtainable in consideration of enhancement in mechanical properties. A 5052-Aluminum Alloy welded joints using UFSW method with plate thickness of 6 mm were investigated, in turn to interpret the fundamental justification for enhancement in mechanical properties of material through UFSW. Differences in microstructural features and mechanical properties of the joints were examined and discussed in detail. The results indicate that underwater FSW has reported lower hardness value in the HAZ and higher hardness value in the intermediate of stir zone (SZ). The average hardness value of underwater FSW increases about 53% greater than its base material (BM), while 21% greater than the normal FSW. The maximum micro-hardness value was three times greater than its base material (BM), and the mechanical properties of underwater FSW joint is increased compared to the normal FSW joint. Besides, the evaluated void-area fraction division in the SZ of underwater FSW joint was reduced and about one-third of the base material (BM). The approximately estimated average size of the voids in SZ of underwater FSW also was reduced to as low as 0.00073 mm2, when compared to normal FSW and BM with approximately estimated average voids size of 0.0024 mm2 and 0.0039 mm2, simultaneously.

This study presents conducted heat simulations and experimental jointing flat-plate of aluminum alloy 6061 and SUS 304. Temperature is simulated by the COMSOL software in three states: (1) Preheat the Friction Stir Welding (FSW) by TIG welding, (2) Thermal contact resistance between Aluminium and steel, and (3) The welding process using stiring friction is simulated. The simulations intended to predicting the temperature which is used for preheat and welding process to ensuring the required solid-state welding. The temperature is also determined and checked by a thermal imager comparing with simulation results. Besides, the results of tensile strength is carried out. The Box - Behnken method is used to identify the relationship between the welding parameters (rotation, speed and offset), temperature and tensile strength. The maximum tensile strength is 77% compared to the strength of aluminum alloy. The optimal set of parameters for the process is n = 676 rpm, v = 46 mm / min and x = 0.6 mm. The optimizing welding parameters to achieving good quality of welding process are described. SEM images to determine some properties of welding materials. This is also the basis for initial research to identify some defects in welding of two different materials (IMC thickness and interconnected pores) and the cause of these defects.
