Questions and Answers

What is the formula for calculating power input by the heat source in electric arc welding?

  • P = V / I
  • P = V + I
  • P = V × I (correct)
  • P = V - I

    • How is the heat input into the workpiece calculated?

  • Heat input = P × time
  • Heat input = P / efficiency
  • Heat input = efficiency of heat input × P × time (correct)
  • Heat input = P + efficiency

    • What represents the melting efficiency in welding?

  • ηm = H / Hm
  • ηm = Hi / H

    Study Notes

    Machining Processes

    • Machining is a process of producing a workpiece by removing unwanted material
    • Crucial for final shape and size of products
    • Drawback is material loss (chips)
    • Improves dimensional accuracy and tolerances
    • Facilitates internal/external surface features not possible by other methods
    • Allows for specified surface characteristics/texture
    • Can be economical way to produce components
    • Includes cutting speed, feed, and depth of cut, as key elements

    Design Aspects of Weldments

    • Minimize weld metal usage
    • Control residual stresses and distortion from thermal contraction (preheating, minimizing welds, smallest welds, intermittent welds, slow cooling)
    • Minimize stress concentrations from sharp discontinuities
    • Locate strength welds where they can't be removed later
    • Ensure adequate strength provision at important structural points
    • Maintain a straight line force pattern (avoid laps and straps unless strength is required)
    • Use butt welds when possible
    • Ensure equal thickness for welding ends
    • Avoid welds at vulnerable stress points
    • Design accurate and properly placed ribs
    • Ensure weld accessibility for inspections
    • Distribute heavy loads along the length of the weld
    • Avoid protruding large flat surfaces
    • Provide properly prepared grooves for joints
    • Avoid welding at right angles to maximum stress in alternating stress situations
    • Favour flat or horizontal welds over overhead welding
    • Minimize edge preparations
    • Keep weld bead size as small as possible to conserve weld metal
    • Ensure proper component fit before welding

    Electric Arc Welding

    • Heat input is V x I (voltage x current)
    • Melting efficiency is (Heat needed to melt)/(Heat input)
    • Heat needed to melt workpiece (volume x energy input)
    • Example calculation demonstrates how to determine heat input and melting efficiency, accounting for heat transfer efficiency.

    Electric Resistance Welding

    • Heat generated is by Joule's law (current squared x resistance x time)
    • Calculations demonstrate how to determine heat generated in various welding examples given.

    Hard Facing of Metals

    • Adds hard material to increase hardness, strength, and wear resistance of a component (using materials such as stellite and other cutting and wear resistant alloys.)
    • Useful for tools and machinery components
    • Can improve resistance to wear and abrasion
    • Used for bearings, camshafts, valve seats, and other critical parts of machinery
    • Can be applied using gas, arc, or shielded arc welding methods

    Welding Processes and Characteristics

    • Various welding processes (OAW, SMAW, FCAW, SAW, MIG, TIG, EBM, FBM, other specialized methods) and their characteristics
    • Each method has specific materials and thickness recommendations, cost factors, levels of operator skill required, and finishing factors, like types of cleaning required on welded components

    Types of Chips

    • Discontinuous chips: Brittle materials (grey cast iron, bronze, hard brass) due to fracture along the shear zone
    • Continuous chips: Ductile materials (due to large plastic deformations, difficult to manage, good surface finish if handled well). Continuous chips with built-up edge: Extreme pressures during cutting creates a weld of material to the tool resulting in a built-up edge that changes size and contributes to surface roughness.

    Machining Processes:

    • Metal cutting process to shape a workpiece by removing material:
    • Improves dimensional accuracy, facilitates internal and external features, and creates specified surface characteristics.
    • Key elements include the cutting speed, feed rate, and depth of cut.
