The objective of this study was to determine the optimum composition ranges of Mn and Ni to develop welding consumables with better resistance to cold cracking. The results indicated that Mn and Ni had considerable effect on the microstructure of weld metal, and both Mn and Ni promoted acicular ferrite at the expense of proeutectoid ferrite and ferrite side plates. Varying Ni content influenced the Charpy impact energy, the extent of which depended on Mn content. Based on the properties and impact resistance, the optimum levels of Mn and Ni were suggested to be 0.6%—0.9%,, and 2.5%—3.5%, respectively. Additions beyond this limit promoted the formation of segregation structures and other microstructural features, which may be detrimental to weld metal toughness.展开更多

The experimental results show that equiaxial grains were formed at the center of the weld metal while highly deformed grains were observed in the thermomechanically affected zone. The fracture toughness of the weld metal was lower than that of the thermomechanically affected zone under as-weld and post weld heat treatment conditions. With increasing temperature of post weld heat treatment, the fracture toughness of weld center and thermomechanically affected zone increased. The fractographic observation revealed that the friction welded joints fractured in a ductile mode.展开更多

The experiments were conducted as per the Taguchi(L16 orthogonal array) method. The friction welding process parameters such as heating pressure, heating time, upsetting pressure, upsetting time, and speed of rotation were fixed with low,medium, and high levels of range based on the machine capacity, and the required knowledge was acquired from the preliminary experiments. The joint characterization studies included micro structural examination and evaluation of mechanical properties of the joints. Microhardness variation, impact toughness, and tensile strength of the joints were evaluated. Neither a crack nor an incomplete bonding zone was observed. The tensile strength of the joints was higher than the strength of the base material, and the friction and upsetting pressures were found to influence the joint strength. The tensile strength of all the welds was observed to be increasing with an increase in the rotational speed. The toughness of the friction welds was evaluated at room temperature and also at subzero(cryo) temperature conditions. The toughness for friction welds was found to be superior to the fusion welds of duplex stainless steel at room temperature and cryo conditions. Weldments exhibited better corrosion resistance than the parent material.展开更多
