Gas tungsten arc welding

چکیده
Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), also known as tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding, is an arc welding process that uses a nonconsumable tungsten electrode to produce the weld. The weld area is protected from atmospheric contamination by a shielding gas (usually an inert gas such as argon), and a filler metal is normally used, though some welds, known as autogenous welds, do not require it. A constant-current welding power supply produces energy which is conducted across the arc through a column of highly ionized gas and metal vapors known as a plasma.

Although a few models have been proposed for 3D simulation of different welding processes, 2D models are still more effective in design goals, thus more popular due to the short-time analysis. In this research, replacing "time" by the "third dimension of place", the gas tungsten arc welding process was simulated by the finite element method in two dimensions and in a short time with acceptable ...
متن کاملAdaptive voltage control of gas tungsten arc welding
An adaptive control based on fuzzy logic has been implemented for Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW). This adaptive controller eliminates the problems frequently experienced with traditional Automatic Voltage Control (AVC) systems, which do not adequately perform for all operational conditions because of the non-linear relationship between the arc voltage, current and arc length. This paper examin...
