Temperature distribution is the foundation to study friction stir welding technique, influence of welding parameters on temperature was studied through experiment measurement on AA2024-T4 aluminum alloy plates. An instantaneous relative linear velocity based heat source was utilized to build the FEM model of friction stir welding process, good agreement was observed between the measured and simulated thermal profiles. FEM model was also utilized to study effect of welding parameters on temperature distribution.

AbstractFriction stir welding (FSW) can achieve a sound welding joint, but its residual stress and distortion cannot be avoided due to the non-uniformity of temperature distribution during welding. Stationary shoulder friction stir welding (SSFSW) was employed to butt weld 6005A-T6 aluminum alloy plates. The effects of welding speeds ranging from 200 mm/min to 600 mm/min on residual stress and distortion were investigated in detail. A thermo-mechanical model was utilized to compare the residual stress distribution between conventional FSW and SSFSW. SSFSW was beneficial to decreasing the peak temperature of stir zone (SZ) and then obtaining a narrower SZ. The peak residual stress produced by SSFSW was 50% lower than that by conventional FSW and a narrower tensile stress region was attained by SSFSW. Moreover, the stationary shoulder applied a function of synchronous rolling during the welding, which controlled the distortion effectively.

A 3D thermal pseudo mechanical model formulated in an Eulerian frame considering a quassisteady approach to Friction Stir welding modeling of AA6061 Aluminium alloy is proposed and implemented using nonlinear finite element code in Comsol Multiphysics v 4.1. The effect of different operating parameters on the temperature distribution was analyzed. The material flow is found to be enhanced with the increase in traverse speed and angular velocity of the pin with a pronounced swirl on the advancing side. The distribution of equivalent plastic strain and dynamic viscosity was found to correlate with the distribution of the microstructure zones in the weld.

AbstractA three-dimensional heat transfer model for friction stir welding is presented in this paper. A moving coordinate was introduced to reduce the difficulty of modeling the moving tool. Heat input from the tool shoulder and the tool pin were considered in the model. The plastic deformation heat was introduced into the model, too. It is clear that the heat production increased owing to plastic deformation, and this process depends on the stress level. Temperature measurement experiments were done to validate the calculated results. The calculated results were in good agreement with the experimental results. Preheating the workpiece is beneficial to obtain a good weld seam.
