In this paper, the influence of double wire submerged arc welding parameters on the mechanical properties of high strength low alloy has been investigated. The 20mm steel plate has been welded by double wire submerged arc welding process using different welding parameters. The Charpy absorbed energy of specimens is assessed using impact test at the temperature of -50°C. Testing results show that high heat input parameters will lead to low strength of welded joint. Impact toughness of fusion line is lower than that of other areas of welded joint.

The quality of joining has assumed a greater role in fabrication of metal in recent years, because of the development of new alloys with tremendously increased strength and toughness. Submerged arc welding is a high heat input fusion welding process in which weld is produced by moving localized heat source along the joint. The weld quality in turn affected by thermal cycle that the weldment experiences during the welding. In the present study a simple comprehensive mathematical model has been developed using a moving heat source and analyzing the temperature on one section and then the temperature distribution of other section are correlated with time delay with reference analyzed section.

An exothermic flux for submerged arc welding process has been developed which is capable of enhancing weld penetration of the joint. For this purpose, thermit mixture in different proportions (20% and 40%) has been added to the parent flux by agglomeration process. Beads on plate were deposited using parent and developed exothermic fluxes for a comparative study. EH14 filler wires in combination with parent and exothermic fluxes were used in this investigation. The effects of welding parameters and exothermic flux on weld penetration were investigated and the results have been presented in this paper. It has been found that the penetration increases from 2.95 to 3.51[Formula: see text]mm with 40% thermit mixture addition to the parent flux. It is further observed that penetration increases with increase in the amount of thermit mixture added. A mathematical model has been developed to predict weld penetration or select suitable welding parameters to obtain the desired penetration. The significance of coefficients was tested using Student’s [Formula: see text]-test and the adequacy of developed model was tested using [Formula: see text]-test. The effects of various parameters on penetration have been presented in graphical form for better understanding.

Ultra-high strength seamless pipes of X90 and X100 grades have been developed for deepwater or ultra-deepwater applications. Girth welding procedure specifications (WPSs) should be developed for the ultra-high strength pipes. However, there is little information for double jointing welding procedure by using submerged arc welding process for high strength line pipes. This paper describes mechanical test results of submerged arc welding (SAW) and gas shielded flux cored arc welding (GSFCAW) trials with various welding consumables procured from commercial markets. Welds were then made with typical welding parameters for riser productions using high strength X90 seamless pipes. The submerged arc weld metal strength could increase by increasing alloy elements in weld metal. The weld metal with CE (IIW) value of 0.74 mass% achieved fully overmatching for the X90 pipe. The weld metal yield strength (0.2% offset) was 694 MPa, and the ultimate tensile strength was 833 MPa. It was also confirmed that the reduction of boron in weld metal can improve low temperature toughness of high strength weld metal. Furthermore, it was confirmed that the HAZ has excellent mechanical properties and toughness for riser applications. In this study GSFCAW procedures were also developed. GSFCAW can be used for joining pipe and connector material for riser production welding. The weld metal with a CE (IIW) value of 0.54 mass% could meet the required strength level for X90-grade pipe as specified in ISO 3183. Cross weld tensile testing showed that fractures were achieved in the base metal. Good Charpy impact properties in weld metal and HAZ were also confirmed.

In this study, a Numerical model is carried out to study the effect of welding parameters on the temperature variations in Submerged Arc Welding process (SAW) with moving heat source model (Gaussian distribution) by using finite difference method (FDM). The proposed method is validated from the experimental results and found is in good agreement with results obtained by experimental. The mathematical model of transient thermal is also recognized to simulate Peak temperature. Finally Parametric effects on temperature profiles based on numerical results, are carried out for different weld parameters including welding speed, heat input, and plate thickness. It has been shown that all those parameters are playing an essential role in affecting the temperature distribution.
