1、.焊接工藝參數(shù)（Welding process parameter）Selection of welding process parametersHttp:/The welding parameters of manual arc welding include welding rod diameter, welding current, arc voltage, welding layer number, power supply type and polarity.1. electrode diameterThe choice of electrode diameter mainly de

2、pends on the thickness of weldment, the form of joint, the position of weld and the level of welding. In general, the diameter of the electrode can be selected according to the thickness of the weldment according to table 6-4, and the electrode with larger diameter is preferred. In addition, in the

3、flat, large diameter; welding, the electrode diameter is less than 5mm; horizontal welding and overhead welding, with a diameter of not more than 4mm; groove multilayer welding, in order to prevent the defects of lack of penetration, the first welding seam should adopt 3.2mm diameter electrode.Table

5、the electrode type, diameter, thickness, welding joints, weld location and other factors to consider, the electrode diameter and weld position is the key. In the welding of the general steel structure, the relationship between the welding current and the diameter of the electrode can be selected by

6、the following empirical formula:I=10d2 (6-1)TypeI - welding current (A);D - electrode diameter (mm).In addition, welding, welding current should be higher than the small 15% 20%; horizontal welding and overhead welding, welding current should be higher than the current 10% to 15%.3. arc voltageThe a

7、rc voltage is determined by the welding current according to the characteristics of the power supply. In addition, arc voltage is also related to the length of arc. The arc length is higher than the arc voltage, and the arc voltage is low when the arc is short. Generally, the arc length is less than

8、 or equal to the diameter of the welding rod, that is, short arc welding. In the use of acid welding electrode, in order to preheat parts or reduce the pool temperature, sometimes also slightly elongated arc welding, that is called long arc welding.4. welding layersThe number of welds shall be deter

9、mined according to the thickness of the weldment. In addition to the thin plate, multilayer welding is usually adopted. The number of welded layers is too small, and the thickness of each layer is too large, which has a detrimental effect on the plasticity of weld metal. The thickness of each seam s

10、hall not be greater than 4 to 5mm during construction.5. types and polarity of power suppliesThe DC power supply due to stable arc, small splash, good welding quality, generally used in important welding structure or plate stiffness structure. In other cases, AC welder shall be considered first.Acco

11、rding to the different forms of welding rod and welding characteristics, the polarity of the arc is higher than the cathode, so different polarity is used to weld various components. When using alkaline welding rod or welding plate, the direct reverse connection (workpiece is connected to negative e

12、lectrode) is adopted; and the positive electrode is used when the acid welding rod is used (the workpiece is connected to the positive electrode).6. weldability of steelThe difference in weldability of various steels is indicated by weldability. The weldability of steels refers to the degree of ease

13、 of welding and the performance of structures under proper design and working conditions. General weldability is expressed in the following aspects:(1) welding operation is easy;(2) cracks and other harmful defects are not occurred during welding;(3) the mechanical, chemical and physical properties

14、of base metal and welded joint are good;(4) the notch toughness of base metal is excellent;(5) welded joints have sufficient plasticity and toughness.Weldability is often affected by the chemical composition, rolling method, and thickness of the steel. In order to evaluate the influence of chemical

15、composition on solderability, carbon equivalent (Ceq) is commonly used.Ceq is the effect of the chemical composition on the highest hardness of the weld heat affected zone. The formula recommended by the international society of welding is the equivalent of carbon equivalent:Based on experience:Ceq0

16、.6%, the tendency of hardening is large, it is difficult to weld. The welding needs to be preheated carefully before welding, and the welding process is strictly controlled.1.4 welding process parameters1.4 welding process parametersWelding process parameters refer to the physical quantities (such a

17、s welding current, arc voltage, welding speed, heat input, etc.) selected to ensure the quality of welding when welding. The welding parameters of electrode arc welding include electrode diameter, welding current, arc voltage, welding speed and preheating temperature, etc.1.4.1 electrode diameterThe

18、 diameter of the electrode is selected according to the thickness of the weldment, the position of welding, the form of joint and the number of welding layers.Larger thickness of the welding, lap and T joint weld should be used in larger diameter welding rod. For small groove welding, in order to en

19、sure the penetration of the lower layer, it is better to use a thinner electrode, such as 2.5mm or Phi 3.2mm welding rod. Different welding position, electrode diameter selection is different, usually flat with thick diameter (4 6) mm welding rod, welding and overhead welding with phi (3.2 4) mm ele

20、ctrode; transverse welding with phi (3.2 5) mm electrode. For special steel, small process parameters are needed, and small diameter welding rod can be used in welding.According to the thickness of the workpiece, refer to table 3-20. For an important structure, the diameter of the electrode shall be

21、 determined according to the specified range of welding current (according to the heat input), and the relationship between the welding current and the diameter of the electrode according to table 3 - welding currentWelding current is the main process parameter of arc welding, and only weld

22、ing current needs to be regulated in the course of operation, while welding speed and arc voltage are controlled by welders. The choice of welding current directly affects welding quality and labor productivity.The increase of welding current, weld depth is bigger, melting fast, high welding efficie

23、ncy, but the current is too large when welding spatter and smoke, electrode tail redness, partial coating to failure or collapse, but also prone to undercut, burn and other defects, increase welding deformation, will make joint coarse grain heat affected zone, reduce welding joint toughness; welding

24、 current is too small, it is difficult to arc, welding rod adhesion on the workpiece, the arc is stable, easy to produce welding incomplete fusion defects such as porosity and slag, and low productivity.Therefore, the selection of welding current should be based on the type of electrode, electrode d

25、iameter, weldment thickness, joint form, weld location and number of welded layers to consider. First of all, welding quality should be guaranteed. Secondly, larger current should be adopted to improve production efficiency. When the welding temperature is low, the welding current is greater because

26、 of the lower thickness of the plate, the T - shaped joint and the lap joint head. But mainly consider the electrode diameter, welding position and bead level and other factors.1) considering the diameter of electrode electrode diameter is thicker, melting the electrode required more heat, to increa

27、se the welding current, each electrode has a most suitable current range, table 3-21 welding current reference value of a variety of commonly used suitable electrode diameter.When welding with carbon steel electrode, the welding current can be calculated by the following empirical formula according

28、to the diameter of the selected electrode:I=dKType 1: I welding current (A):D - electrode diameter (mm):K - empirical coefficient (A / CRA), see table 3-20.Table 3-20 relationship between welding current empirical coefficient and electrode diameter 9Electrode diameter D / mm 1.62 to 2.5, 3.24 to 6Em

29、pirical coefficients K ranged from 202525 to 30304040 to 502) position of welding in flat position welding is considered, can choose more large welding current, non flat position welding, easy to control weld, the welding current is 10% 20% small flat position.3) consider welding backing bead weldin

30、g layer usually, in order to ensure the quality of the use of back bead, the welding current is smaller; the welding bead filling, in order to improve efficiency, ensure good fusion, the use of large welding current: cover weld, prevent undercut and ensure a bead shape, using the current smaller.Wel

31、ding current - usually in accordance with the diameter of the electrode for preliminary selection, after the initial selection of welding current, after passing the test welding, check the weld forming and defects can be determined. For mechanical properties, such as boilers, pressure vessels and ot

32、her important structures, after the welding process qualification, in order to finalize the welding current and other process parameters.1.4.3 arc voltageWhen the welding current is adjusted, the external characteristic curve of the welding machine is decided. In fact, arc voltage is mainly determin

33、ed by arc length. Arc length, arc voltage is high, otherwise it is low. Welding process, the arc should not be too long, otherwise there will be unstable arc combustion, splash, melting depth and the creation of undercut, blowhole and other defects: if the arc is too short, easy to stick welding rod

34、. Generally, the arc length is equal to 0.5 to 1 times of the diameter of the welding rod, and the corresponding arc voltage is 16 - 25V. The arc length of the basic electrode should not exceed the diameter of the electrode. It is better to choose half arc welding as much as possible. The arc length

35、 of the acid welding rod shall be equal to the diameter of the welding rod.1.4.4 welding speedThe welding speed of electrode arc welding refers to the speed of welding rod moving along the welding direction in the process of welding, that is, the length of welding seam completed in unit time. The we

36、lding speed is too high, it will cause the weld seam to be narrow, and it will make the undercut and weld waveform become sharp. The welding speed will be too slow, the weld width will be increased, the remaining height will be increased, and the effect will be reduced. Welding speed also directly d

37、etermines the amount of heat input, usually based on the hardening tendency of the steel to choose.1.4.5 weld seam numberThick plate welding, generally bevel, and use multi-layer welding or multi-layer welding. The microstructure of multi layer welding and multi channel welding joint is fine and the

38、 heat affected zone is narrower. The former bead acts as a preheating to the latter bead, and the latter bead acts as a heat sink on the previous bead. Therefore, the joint ductility and toughness are better. Especially for the easy quenched steel, the tempering effect of the back bead to the front

39、bead can improve the microstructure and properties of the joint.For low alloy high strength steel and other steel grades, the number of weld layers has an obvious influence on the joint properties. The ductility and toughness of the welded joint will be reduced due to the coarsening of the weld seam

40、 when the weld seam is too small and the thickness of each layer is too large.1.4.6 heat inputWhen welding, the heat input from the welding energy to the unit length weld is called heat input. The formula is as follows:Q=NLU/uType Q heat input of unit length weld (J / cm)I - welding current (A);U -

41、arc voltage (V);U - welding speed (cm / s)N - the coefficient of thermal efficiency, welding rod arc welding is 0.7 0.8.Heat input has little effect on the properties of low carbon steel welded joints. Therefore, for low carbon steel electrodes, arc welding generally does not specify heat input. For

42、 low alloy steel and stainless steel, when the heat input is too large, the performance of the joint may be reduced: the heat input is too long, and some steel welds may crack when welding. Therefore, the welding process specifies the heat input. After welding current and heat input are specified, t

43、he arc voltage and the welding speed of the arc welding are indirectly approximately determined.Generally, the heat input range which can not produce welding cracks and guarantee the performance of the joint is determined by experiments.The greater the allowable heat input range, the easier the weld

44、ing operation.1.4.7 preheating temperaturePreheating is the process of proper heating of all or part of the weldment prior to the start of welding. Preheating can reduce the cooling rate after welding, avoid hardening structure, and reduce welding stress and deformation. It is an effective way to pr

45、event cracks. It is generally not necessary to warm up the general structure of rigid low carbon steel and low strength low-alloy high-strength steel. But the structure is easy to crack because of its rigidity or weldability, so it needs preheating before welding.According to the comprehensive consi

46、deration of the preheating temperature of the chemical composition, base material and welding performance, thickness, welding joints and welding restraint degree of ambient temperature and related products, technical standards and other conditions, the minimum preheat temperature of important struct

47、ure after cracking test for uncertain crack. Choose the preheating temperature is much higher, the better effect to prevent cracks; but more than the preheating temperature required, will cause the metal grain coarsening near the fusion zone, reduce the welding quality, labor conditions will be wors

48、e. The whole preheat is usually heated by various furnaces. Partial preheating usually adopts gas flame heating or infrared heating. Measurement of preheating temperature by surface thermometer.1.4.8 post heating and post weld heat treatmentImmediately after welding, all or part of the weldment is h

49、eated or insulated, and the slow cooling process is called post heat. The purpose of post heat is to avoid the formation of hard and brittle tissues, and to diffuse hydrogen from the weld surface, thereby preventing cracks.After welding, the heat treatment for improving the microstructure and proper

50、ties of welded joints or eliminating the welding residual stresses is called post weld heat treatment. The main function of post weld heat treatment is to eliminate the welding residual stress, reduce the hardness of the welding zone, promote the diffusion of hydrogen, stabilize the structure and im

51、prove the mechanical properties, high temperature properties and so on. Therefore, the choice of heat treatment temperature should be based on the performance of steel, microstructure, joint work temperature, structural form, heat treatment purposes to consider comprehensively, and through microscop

52、ic metallographic and hardness test to determine.For easy to produce important structural fracture and delayed crack, structure size and high stability, stress corrosion, should be considered for stress relief annealing for boilers and pressure vessels, there are special rules, the thickness exceeds

53、 a certain limit to eliminate stress annealing. Stress relief annealing shall be tested to determine if necessary. Chromium - molybdenum pearlitic heat resistant steel often needs high temperature tempering after welding so as to improve the joint structure and eliminate the welding residual stress.

54、The important welding structure, such as boiler, pressure vessel, the welding welding technology evaluation process, according to the design of the welding process and welding test plate of the welding quality and mechanical properties to meet the technical requirements, determine the formal wit. We

55、lding construction must be in strict accordance with the provisions of the welding process, shall not be arbitrarily changed. In strict accordance with the instructions set out before baking, remove oil, welding on the welding water, reduce the content of hydrogen in the weld welding: reasonable pro

56、cess parameters and reduce the weld heat input, harden tendency of welding: immediately after hydrogen treatment, hydrogen escape from the welded joints: for hardenability high steel, preheating before welding, welding time after heat treatment, improve the microstructure and mechanical properties o

57、f the welding process by reducing stress measures.(3) after reheat crack welding, the weldment is heated again in a certain temperature range (the elimination of stress, heat treatment or other heating process) and the crack is called reheat crack.Causes: reheat crack usually occurs in V, Cr, Mo, containing B alloy elements of low alloy high strength steel, heat-resistant steel and stainless steel, subjected to a welding heat cycle, and then heated to a sensitive region (550 to 650 D
