Abstract

Electric arc welding (EAW) is a traditional fabrication process used in wider domestic, commercial and industrial application. Welding is a joining of two materials with the application of heat at the molecular level with the application of heat and pressure. Many materials used for welding application for different joining process. Maraging steel is special steel used for production of different air-craft components. Maraging material is used for heavy tools, producing strength, toughness, weld ability, and machine ability is good for any components. The investigation of heat transfer during the welding for a maraging steel surface provides a new topic for the research. The ranges of input parameters are voltage (35 to 55 V), current (70 to 90 V) and electrode diameter (5 to 20 mm). The study also predicts the effect of mode of heat transfer for the welding environment. The mode of heat transfer considered for the studies are convection on the variation of heat transfer coefficient and mixed effects of convection – radiation. The heat transfer coefficient is varies 0 to 100 W/m2 K. The present study considered the considerations such as voltage, current and electrode diameter to determine the weld energy produced through the welding. The study will also find the temperature profile, heat dissipation rate of the welding zone and work piece. The study will contribute to knowing the characteristics and phenomenon of electric arc welding for heat transfer phenomenon. The present work also helps to design and joining of the components for industrial and air craft components.

Keywords: Welding, Electric Arc welding, Heat flux, Weld zone, Heat transfer, Maraging steel
