Direction of flow of the liquid metal in the weld pool have important implications for weld. The liquid metal to weld edges near the point of internal flow in molten pool and the undercut could emerge when the liquid metal was freezing, by contrast, is not prone to undercut. The external magnetic fields could change the distance of surface tension of liquid metal, which may lead to the change of flow direction of molten pool. Article compares the different magnetic field under the condition of weld cross section of the timing of the welding arc. Results show that magnetic arc anode spots, TIG welding arc anode spot diameter greater than when there is no magnetic field effectively effective diameter, which will help reduce the undercut.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
