Novel drilling methods, including electrical discharge machining, laser drilling, and plasma arc drilling, have emerged in recent years to overcome such problems as tool wear and low efficiency in the drilling of thick plates or difficult-to-machine materials. Plasma arc drilling is an effective and high-speed drilling method for thick plates. However, the mechanisms of plasma arc drilling, such as the hole formation and dross formation processes, have not yet been fully elucidated. In this study, a number of experiments under different drilling conditions were conducted to investigate the hole formation process in mild steel plate of 12 mm in thickness, using a high-speed video camera. Hole formation in plasma arc drilling is a highly complex process since both melting and vaporization are involved. The mechanisms of molten metal ejection as a material removal process were verified. The formation and removal of dross at the entrance and exit sides were elucidated by our observations of molten metal ejection. Further experiments were carried out to investigate the effect of the anode motion peculiar to plasma arc drilling. The results clarified the hole formation process and some specific related phenomena. The insights gained into the hole formation process will be useful in improving hole quality and reducing dross around the hole.","PeriodicalId":23197,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of JWRI","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86308666","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

X-Ray diffraction integration strength of austenite was influenced by the transformation stress immediately after the martensite transformation.

In this study, influence of adding 2%ThO to the tungsten cathode as emitter material on arc properties and weld pool formation mechanism in TIG welding was investigated by employing numerical simulation model considering heat and mass transfers among the cathode, the arc and the weld pool. As a result, it was found that although the maximum cathode jet velocity in case of 2%ThO2-W cathode was 497 m/s, that in case of pure W cathode was only 156 m/s because of low current density caused by flatten surface of the melting cathode tip. In case of 2%ThO2-W cathode, the depth and the width of the weld pool became shallow wide than those in case of pure W cathode. For a reason, it is considered that because shearing force from the arc to the weld pool was larger than that of pure W cathode due to higher cathode jet velocity, the heat transport in the weld pool near the surface in radial outward direction increased","PeriodicalId":23197,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of JWRI","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80059093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At first, the fracture mode in a cross tensile test and a tensile shear test was investigated in detail. Then, the ideal profile of the welded joint was proposed to accomplish the high joint strength. The high joint strength can be acquired when the tip of the partially bonded interface is located at distance from the periphery of the keyhole and the surface of the top sheet. Based on the material flow model, it became clear that the strong inwards flow produced by the shoulder or the increase of the heat input to soften material around the stir zone leaded to producing the ideal joint. Thus four types of tools with different shoulder profiles were investigated. The investigation of the material flow and tensile tests were carried out. 15mm-spiral tool, which was designed to facilitate the material flow beneath the shoulder efficiently, attained the high joint strength in both a cross tensile and a tensile shear test.","PeriodicalId":23197,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of JWRI","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81700363","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For example, since the arc column is constricted due to low electrical conductivity of the helium arc, heat flux onto a base metal in case of helium TIG arc is higher than that of argon TIG arc. The heat source properties can be controlled also by current waveform. Pulsed TIG welding is suitable for back-bead welding and thin plate welding, because the heat flux onto the base metal can be controlled by adjusting peak / base current ratio and frequency. A number of results on experimental and theoretical investigations of the heat source properties of DC TIG arc have been reported. However, those of pulsed TIG arc are still not fully understood because of the complexity of the phenomenon. In this paper, numerical simulation result of the heat source properties of pulsed TIG arc for various shielding gas composition will be reported.
