In this paper, the microstructure and impact toughness of a S32101 duplex stainless steel underwater local-dry keyhole tungsten inert gas welded joint were studied. The impact toughness value of the underwater weld metal reached 78% of the onshore weld metal, which is in accordance with the underwater welding standards. The proportion of austenite in the underwater weld metal was 0.9% lower than that of the onshore weld metal. The proportion of the Σ3 coincidence site lattice boundaries and random phase boundaries in the underwater weld metal, which significantly influence the impact toughness of the weld metal, were smaller than that of the onshore weld metal.

The weldablity of dissimilar steel between 16MnR and S31803 was analyzed and researched. By means of optical microscope (OM), the microstructure of the weld joint was investigated, which is welded by tungsten inert gas arc backing welding (GTAW) and manual arc filling welding (SMAW). The mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of the welded joint was also tested and studied. Results indicate that austenite and acicular ferrite distribute uniformly in the weld metal, which strengths the toughness and ductility of the joint. The austenite content in weld is higher than that in over-heated zone of S31803.The SMAW joint structure is coarsening than that of GTAW and has more austenite content. It is also observed that there are a decarburization layer and a carbon-enriched zone nearby the fusion line. And very small amounts of the third phase of harmful metal phase are found in the fusion zone of S31803 side. The welded joint shows the excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. The impact toughness of the weld metal is higher than in HAZ of 16MnR side, and the impact toughness at GTAW side and in HAZ is superior to the SMAW side.

Three weld metals with different oxygen contents were developed. The influence of oxygen contents on the microstructure and impact toughness of weld metal was investigated through high heat input welding tests. The results showed that a large number of fine inclusions were formed and distributed randomly in the weld metal with oxygen content of 500 ppm under the heat input condition of 341 kJ/cm. Substantial cross interlocked acicular ferritic grains were induced to generate in the vicinity of the inclusions, primarily leading to the high impact toughness at low temperature for the weld metal. With the increase of oxygen content, the number of fine inclusions distributed in the weld metal increased and the grain size of intragranular acicular ferrites decreased, which enhanced the impact toughness of the weld metal. Nevertheless, a further increase of oxygen content would contribute to a great diminution of the austenitic grain size. Following that the fraction of grain boundary and the start temperature of transformation increased, which facilitated the abundant formation of pro-eutectoid ferrites and resulted in a deteriorative impact toughness of the weld metal.

This paper presents research of the impact toughness and hardness distribution in specific zones of a ‘single V’butt multiple-pass welded joints of the high-strength low-alloyed steels. Obtained values of the impact toughness are analyzed in correlation with a microstructure in specific zones of the welded joint, together with the micro hardness distribution found in the related zones. Based on the carried out analysis and results obtained in experiments, the applied technology of welding was evaluated. The original conclusions on influence of the selected welding procedure manual metal arc (MMA) for the root passes and metal active gas (MAG) for the filling and covering passes) on impact toughness of the high-strength low-alloyed steels are drawn. The paper also presents discussion on the valid standards and recommendations related to welding of those steels, from the aspect of applications in design of steel welded constructions.

Testing were carried out on two steels. The first was microalloyed with Nb and second with Ti, Nb and V. The impact toughness of weld metals of these steels was evaluated using an instrumented Charpy pendulum. Five different gas mixtures (Ar, CO2, O2) were used to determine the optimal gas shielded metal arc process for both steels. The oxygen equivalent was used as a representative parameter of a mixture to follow, in particularly, its effect on the microstructure, toughness and crack propagation energy of the weld metal. For these investigated steels, the optimum gas mixture was established (5%CO2, 0.91%O2, balance Ar), which provided the maximum crack propagation energy, due to the microstructure which consisted dominantly of acicular ferrite.

In this paper, SAF2507 duplex stainless steel (DSS) was welded by GTAW with ER2594 as filler wire, and Ar + N2 as shielding gas. The results show that, with increasing the content of N2 in the shielding gas, the amount of austenite in weld metal increase, the micro-hardness drops and impact energy increases; the use of Ar +2 ~ 3% N2 welding parameters, the microstructure and mechanical properties of welded joints are the best, the austenitic rates and impact energy of weld metals are 51%~53% and 75~88 J, respectively, and the welding process is easy to control; when the content of N2 reach 5%, the impact energy of weld metal decreases obviously and the welding arc is unstable.

В статье рассматривается влияние на развитие технологии мокрой подводной сварки использование методов математического моделирования значительно облегчает исследование тепловых потоков, что позволяет рассчитать скорость охлаждения металла в опасном диапазоне температур (800-500оС) и определить свойства металла сварного соединения. Определяющую роль в сварке играет теплообмен, который формирует протекание физико-химических, диффузионных, гидродинамических процессов. Форма сварочной ванны, а значит, объем и теплосодержание характеризуется ее длиной, шириной, толщиной и глубиной проплавления основного металла. Сварочная ванна ограничивается изотермической поверхностью, имеющей температуру плавления основного металла. Предполагается, что на свойства сварного соединения влияет только энергия, поступающая в основной металл. В известных физических образах и математических моделях теплового процесса сварки и наплавки не рассматривается, какое влияние на околошовную зону оказывают потоки теплоты от объема (массы) металла сварочной ванны, хотя в некоторых моделях изучается влияние скрытой теплоты плавления на тепловое состояние основного металла. The article discusses the impact on the development of wet underwater welding technology the use of mathematical modeling methods significantly facilitates the study of heat flows, which allows us to calculate the cooling rate of the metal in the dangerous temperature range (800-500oC) and determine the properties of the metal of the welded joint. The decisive role in welding is played by heat transfer, which forms the flow of physico-chemical, diffusion, and hydrodynamic processes. The shape of the weld pool, and hence the volume and heat content, is characterized by its length, width, thickness, and depth of penetration of the base metal. The welding bath is limited to an isothermal surface having a melting point of the base metal. It is assumed that the properties of the welded joint are affected only by the energy entering the base metal. In the known physical images and mathematical models of the thermal process of welding and surfacing, it is not considered what effect the heat fluxes from the volume (mass) have on the near-seam zone) the effect of the latent heat of melting on the thermal state of the base metal is studied in some models.
