Welding is a process that joins materials by heating them to a welding temperature through heating or pressure, with or without filler metal. There are several common welding processes including oxyacetylene welding, shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), gas metal arc welding (GMAW), and flux core arc welding (FCAW). When deciding which welding process to use, factors like equipment availability, joint geometry, material, and code requirements must be considered. SMAW is commonly used and involves creating an arc between a consumable electrode and the workpiece to produce coalescence.

Resistance Spot Welding of CRCA Steel sheets using surface modified electrodesAM Publications
Resistance spot welding has established itself across a wide range of industries as a cost-effective method
for welding. One of the problems of Resistance Spot Welding is the lifetime of welding electrode tips which affects the
quality of the welds formed. An innovative way to prevent the electrode wear is to plate the surface of the electrode
with suitable material. The material chosen in this study is Nickel and Chromium. Plating of these materials is
inexpensive and easily available. The increase in resistance due to plating the electrodes is measured. The metals are
plated on the surface with varying thicknesses separately and their effect on ultimate load, shear stress and nugget
diameter is observed by varying welding current and keeping the weld time and welding pressure constant. It is
investigated from the study that Ni plating with 35 microns thickness and Cr plating with 25 microns thickness
requires less current to weld spots of higher strengths compared to non plated electrodes. This is due to increase in
resistance of the weld system due to plating which requires less current as resistance of the weld system is increased.
In the modern world of industrialization the wear is eating metal assets worth millions of dollars per year. The wear is in the form of corrosion, erosion, abrasion etc. which occur in the process industries like oil & gas, refineries, cement plants, steel plants, shipping and offshore working structures. The equipments like pressure vessels, heat exchangers, hydro processing reactors which very often work at elevated temperatures face corrosion in the internal diameter.Hastelloy C-276weld overlay on ferrous material is developed for outstanding resistance to wide variety of chemical process environments such as ferric and cupric chlorides, hot contaminated mineral acids, solvents, chlorine and chlorine contained media, both inorganic and organic, dry chlorine, formic and acetic acids, acetic anhydride, sea water and brine solutions.Selection of SMAW is for development of hastalloy C-276 material with SMAW process to use as a weld overlay process at non accessible area & where position is constraint which is not feasible by other processes like ESSC, FCAW, and SAW etc.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

welding process
2) Processes
A) Oxyacetylene Welding
1. Oxyacetylene welding is the most commonly used fuel gas mixture.
It is widely used for welding(OFW), cutting (OFC), and brazing
(TB). The equipment required is relatively inexpensive and the cost
of operation is low.

1. Extremely fast and economical
2. Can be used to weld on thin gauge metal as well as thick plate.
3. GMAW has a high welding rate and reduced post weld cleanup.
E) Flux Core Arc Welding (FCAW)
1. utilizes same equipment as GMAW but may be used without an
external shield gas due to the use of a flux cored wire.
3) How do I decide on What welding process to use? Several factors must be
considered.
A) Availability of Equipment – types, capacities and condition of equipment
that can be used to make welds.
B) Repetitiveness of operation – How many welds will be required to do the
job, and are they all the same?
C) Quality Requirements – is the weld going to be used to repair a piece of
equipment or used on a piece of furniture
D) Location of work – will the weld be in a shop or in a remote job site?
E) Material to be joined – Are the parts made out of mild steel or an exotic
alloy?
F) Appearance of the finished product – is the weld needed to test an idea or
will it be a permanent structure?
G) Size of the parts to be joined – Are the parts small, large or of different
sizes? Can they be moved or must they be welded in place?
H) Time available for work – Is it a rush job or is there time for pre and post
weld cleanup?
3. I) Skill or experience of workers – do the welders have the ability to do the
job?
J) Cost of materials – will the weldment be worth the expense of special
equipment materials or finishing time?
K) Code or specification requirements – often the selection of the process is
dictated by the government agency, codes or standards.
4) SMAW equipment, setup & operation
A) Welding current
1. Welding current is an electric current (flow of electrons). Electrons flow
from negative (-) to positive (+) through a conductor.
2. Resistance to the flow of electrons produces heat. The greater the
resistance, the greater the heat.
a. Air has a high resistance to current flow. As the electrons jump
the air gap between the end of the electrode and the work, a great
deal of heat is produced. Electrons jumping the air gap create the
arc.
3. Current Measurement
a. Voltage (V) – Measurement of electric pressure. Voltage
controls the maximum gap the electrons can jump to form the arc. A
higher voltage can jump a larger gap.
b. Amperage, or Amps (A) – A measurement of the total number
of electrons flowing. Amperage controls the size of the arc.
c. Wattage (W) – a measurement of the electrical energy or power
in the arc. The amount of watts put into a weld controls the width
and depth of the weld bead.
d. Calculating currents:
Voltage x Amps = Watts
Watts/Voltage = Amps
4. Voltage = Watts/Amps
4. Welding Currents
a. Alternating Current (AC) – this setting evenly distributes the
heat between the electrode and work, even heat gives the weld bead a
balance between penetration and build up.
b. Direct Current Electrode Negative (DCEN)- electrode is
negative and work is positive. DCEN produces a high electrode
melting rate.
c. Direct Current Electrode Positive (DCEP) – produces the best
welding arc characteristics.
B.) Types of power Sources
1. Transformers
a. Transforms the high voltage, low amperage, Alternating current
supplied to welding shops to low voltage, high amperage
welding power.
2. Inverter
a. A much smaller welding power unit capable of producing the
same amount of power as a transformer machine 12 times its size.
One power source can also supply the power for several different
welding processes.
5. 3. Generators & Alternators
a. Alternator produces AC current
b. Generators produce AC or DC current
4. Rectifiers
a. Rectifiers convert AC power to DC power.
C.) Duty Cycle – Percentage of time a welder can be used continuously.
1. A 60% duty cycle means that out of every 10 minutes, the machine may
be used for 6 minutes at the maximum rated current
2. Exceeding the duty cycle can damage the insulation of the transformer,
damaging the power source.
D.) SMAW Electrodes
1. SMAW electrodes vary greatly and can be used for several different
applications.
2. Electrodes differ in strength, penetration, appearance, machineability,
etc.
3. Identifying electrodes:
a. E6011
i. E = electrode
ii. 60 = 60,000 tensile strength
iii. 3rd
number - 1 = welding positions, 1 = all
positions, 2 = flat and horizontal
6. iv. 4th
number – 1 = flux code, power supply, amount
of penetration, etc.
E.) Learning to Shield Metal Arc Weld
1. Get comfortable, wear protective gear: welding hood with correct lens
shade, coveralls, and Leather gloves.
2. If right handed hold the electrode holder in your right hand, in left hand
if left handed. Use other arm for support while welding.
3. When possible weld from left to right (right handers)
4. Striking the arc
a. Scratch electrode briskly over base metal and lift approximately
1/8th
inch
5. Hold the electrode at 15 – 30 degrees at 90 degrees with travel.
6. Arc length – the distance from the tip of the electrode to the base metal.
a. Arc length should be 1/16 inch to 1/8 inch maximum.
b. A short arc length will cause the electrode to stick, a long arc
length will prevent metal deposition and cause excessive spatter.
7. Welding speed
a. Watch the molten puddle, not the arc. The molten puddle should
be solid (not orange/red) approximately 3/8 inch behind the arc
7. b. A welding speed that is too rapid will create a thin bead with
little penetration and poor appearance.
c. A welding speed too slow will create a bead that is too wide, may
melt through the metal and also have a poor appearance.
