The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) on the bend testing results of low carbon steel welding joints. The results of this study are expected to determine the cracks that occur from the root bend and face bend testings in the AC and DC welding process. This study used experimental method, where the research was done by giving AC and direct polarity DC (DC-) SMAW welding treatments. The material used in this research was low carbon steel plate DIN 17100 Grade ST 44, thickness 10 with E7016 electrode type. The process of welding joints used a single V seam, strong current of 90A, and the welding position of 1G. The testing of welding joints was carried out by bend testing using the standard acceptance of AWS D1.1 root bend and face bend testing results. The results of the bend testing showed that the AC welding root bend test specimen held no cracks while the DC welding root bend test held cracks with incompelete penetration and open crack defects. On the contrary, the AC welding face bend test had open crack defects and in the DC welding face bend test was found a crack. Thus, there was a difference in the crack resistance of the welding joint from the types of current used through the root bend test and face bend test. Therefore, it can be summarized that AC welding is better for root welding and DC welding is good for capping welding.

The Magnetic Field

In order to systematically study the influence of surfacing current and magnetic field current on hardness and wear resistance of surfacing layer, longitudinal DC magnetic field was applied during plasma arc surfacing Co-based alloy on low-carbon steel. The hardness, wear resistance, microstructure and phase constitution of the surfacing layer were investigated through the tests of hardness, wear, SEM and XRD analysis. The results show that the surfacing current and magnetic field current must be matched properly to achieve the optimal properties of surfacing layer. The optimal values are obtained when the surfacing current is 160A and the magnetic field current is 3A, where the hardness is 43.7 HRC and the wear loss is 0.5493g. The proper electromagnetic stirring induced by electromagnetic field can not only refine the microstructure but also improve the hardness and wear resistance of the surfacing layer.

plasma arc sufacing； magnetic field style ；Ni-based alloy；microstructure and properties Abstract. The Ni60 alloy was overlaid on low carbon steel by plasma arc surfacing with Longitudinal magnetic field or transverse magnetic field. The magnetic field current and surfacing current could been changed during surfacing. After plasma arc surfacing with magnetic field, the XRD, wear loss tes, micro-hardness test were used to analyze the effect of magnetic field style on properties of overlay deposit. The acting mechanism of magnetic field style and parameters on properties and microstructure of overlay deposit was researched. The results indicate that longitudinal magnetic field and transverse magnetic field all can improve the properties of overlay deposit, but give little effectives intervention to the process parameters. The active effect of transverse magnetic field is better than longitudinal magnetic field because of transverse magnetic field can make the microstructure finer, component more uniform.

The Magnetic Field

Low-carbon steel Q235B was successfully joined by plasma-pulsed gas metal arc welding (plasma-GMAW-P) with an external magnetic field. The arc profile, temperature field, electrical signal, microstructure, and mechanical properties of this method were analyzed. The results indicated that the coupling degree of the two arcs increased with the strengthening of the magnetic field current. However, when the magnetic field current was greater than 1 A, the arc pro-file changed slightly with the increase of the magnetic field current. Fixed on the magnetic field current, the coupling degree first increased and then decreased with the increase of the plasma welding current, GMAW-P welding current, plasma gas flow rate, and nozzle height, respectively. The maximum temperature had no obvious influence on joint penetration at different magnetic field cur-rents. However, the average temperature had an inverse effect on joint penetration at different magnetic field currents. The weld fusion zone joint tensile test results showed that the ratio of depth to width increased with the application of magnetic field currents. Moreover, tensile strength on the upper and lower part of the tensile samples were 521 and 488 MPa, respectively, which were 4.6% and 3.2% higher than those without the magnetic field. The microhardness of the weld joints was higher than that without the magnetic field.

The Impact

The stress and motion state of droplet in MIG welding with alternating longitudinal magnetic field were analyzed, and the impact of alternating longitudinal magnetic field on the droplet transfer were studied by high-speed video camera. The results show that the droplet is spherical approximately and transfer to molten pool along the welding wire axis without external longitudinal magnetic field. When alternating longitudinal magnetic field was introduced into welding process, the droplet rotate around the welding wire clockwise and counter-clockwise alternately. Shape of droplet became flat and direction of transfer deviated from the welding wire axis under the action of magnetic field. As the exciting current increased, extent of deviation from the wire axis increases. When the exciting current is too large (I >20A), extent of deviation is too large and droplet are disintegrated into several small droplet during the transition. So droplet can not transfer into molten pool successfully and the bead can’t be formed.

Temperature Range

Induced residual stresses on AISI 1020 low carbon steel plate during Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding process was evaluated in this study using experimental and Finite Element Method (FEM). The temperature range measured from the welding experimentation was 251°C-423°C, while the temperature range measured from the FEM was 230°C-563°C; whereas, the residual stress range measured from the welding experimentation was 144MPa-402Mpa, while the residual range measured from the FEM was 233-477MPa respectively. Comparing the temperature and stress results obtained from both methods, it was observed that the range of temperature and residual stresses measured were not exactly the same due to the principles at which both methods operate but disparities between the methods were not outrageous. However, these values can be fed back to optimization tools to obtain optimal parameters for best practices.  Results of the induced stress distribution was created from a static study where the thermal results were used as loading conditions and it was observed that the temperature increased as the von-Mises stress increased, indicating that induced stresses in welded component may hamper the longevity of such component in service condition. Hence, post-weld heat treatment is imperative in order to stress relieve metals after welding operation and improve their service life.
