Abstract |
Dissimilar materials joints provide very good combination of mechanical properties for industrial applications. TIG welding is best suitable for welding dissimilar materials like, Carbon steel, stainless steel and their alloys. In this study Stainless steel (316) and Mild steel are selected for welding operation. Welding current, Voltage, Gas flow rate, are three parameters selected TIG welding operation. To understand the effect of these parameters on selected materials we have used Taguchi L9 orthogonal array method to achieve a optimized parametric combination of TIG welding. We have calculate Tensile Strength, Hardness, of 9 welded specimens by destructive testing method, results of these experiments shows that Specimen L5 has highest strength among all specimens. |
