Abstract |
The present research work aims to study the comparative effect of PAW (Plasma Arc Welding) and GTAW (Gas Tungsten Arc Welding) on SS 304L to check the mechanical properties and quality for a particular weld joint. The process parameters are current, welding speed and flow rate of shielding gas with ER316L electrode for tensile strength, hardness of weld metal, hardness of heat affected zone, and weld penetration to width ratio. Artificial Neural Network has been developed for both Plasma Arc Welding and Gas Tungsten Arc Welding process. Regression analysis has been done to establish mathematical model of process and response parameter. |
