The present research activity aims at studying different conditions for the circumferential friction stir welding of cylindrical components in aluminium alloy. Different parameters have been considered, such as the rotational velocity of the tool, the tangential velocity of the cylindrical elements and the number of welding passes. The obtained data have been analysed and the strength of each joint modelled. It has been observed a relevant effect of the combination between the rotational velocity of the tool and the tangential velocity of the cylindrical components on the strength of the joint.

A dimensionless correlation is developed based on Buckingham’s Pi-Theorem to estimate the temperature fields generated by the movement of a tool during the Friction Stir Welding of an aluminum alloy (6061-T6). Symmetrical thermocouple measurements are taken during a statistically designed experiment using different factor levels (RPM, Traverse, etc). Analytical comparison (using multivariate ANOVA) validates the predicted dimensionless correlation including the often-reported difference between the advancing versus retreating side of the Friction Stir Tool.
