Abstract

Tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding is a well-established joining process and offers the user flexibility to weld a large range of materials. Ultra-thin turbine tipping is an important application for TIG welding that is exceptionally challenging due to the wide range of variables needed to accurately control the process: slope times, arc control, travel speed, etc. We offer new insight into weld pool characteristics, utilizing both on- and off-line measurements of weld tracks. High-resolution thermal imaging yields spatially and temporally resolved weld pool phase transitions coupled with post-weld photographs, which gives a novel perspective into the thermal history of a weld. Our imaging system is filtered to measure a 10 nm window at 950 nm and comprises a commercial Sigma lens to produce a near-infrared (NIR) camera. The measured near-infrared radiance is calibrated for temperature over the range of from 800 to 1350 °C.

摘要

钨极惰性气体保护焊（TIG）是一种成熟的连接工艺，为用户提供了焊接多种材料的灵活性。超薄涡轮叶片尖端焊接是TIG焊接的一项重要应用，由于精确控制该工艺需要考虑众多变量，如斜率时间、电弧控制、行进速度等，因此极具挑战性。我们通过对焊缝轨迹进行在线和离线测量，为熔池特性提供了新的见解。高分辨率热成像技术能够实现对熔池相变在空间和时间上的解析，并结合焊接后的照片，为焊缝的热历史提供了全新的视角。我们的成像系统经过滤波处理，可在950纳米处测量10纳米的窗口，并配备了商用Sigma镜头，以生成近红外（NIR）相机。所测量的近红外辐射强度在800至1350°C的温度范围内进行了温度校准。
