Welling of MetalFt s The prete4t stage of modern technical development le ?chareeteriSaf by a wide applicetion of welding in the fabri- cation of achine parts and other articles. Amon i; the various metal welding techniques, electric welding has become most widely used, since, ir ha rA with attain- ment or decreased manufacturing costs and si-,eed-up of fabrica- tion procedures, it can, in many instances, bc used instead tl ? of riveting, casting and ,;as welding. Cutstanding fabricating and technc-sconemica; 'of electric welding have contributed to i4;s widespread inculca- tion into almost all branches of indutry. ? 2lectric welding is widely united in transport, a;,-rt-ultu- ? ral, power and chemical machine-building, as well as in air- craft construction and shipbuilding. alectric veliia le Coming a basic fabricating technique in the conetruCtion of' bridges, ships, , hoisting and conveying,eqUJpment, sky-.sera:!. frame-works, pipelines, etc. Academician V.V.Petrov, an outstanding physiciet s.rd ? the first of the Russian school of electro-phynicista, in 18; discavered and investigated the phenomenon of arc dischargs.

Petrov .-discOvered and 'described this electric-arc phenomenon several .years . before this' was done by. the .Britsh physiciet Davy (in 1812 4 For this_reason,-:the deep-rooted term of ."Violt arc" is now re- 'placed by the term "Petrov :arc", in honour 40 the man who made 'this great discovery, ? The discovery of .the electric-arc discharge formed the basis for subsequent development of electric lighting engineering, ? electric welding of metals and stimulated the general development " of .electrical engineering. Several decades later, a Russian scientist P.N. Jablotchkov gave prac ti cal application to the discovery made by P. V. Petrov, .by creating the world's first electric Incandescent lamp. In the 80,-ies of the last century, Russian engineers .N.G.Slavianov and N.N.Benardos used the Petrov arc for the melting and welding of metals. ? 2. Kinds of Weldlng_ ? Welding is defined as the process of insephrably joining . metal arlieles, performed by locally heating' them .to a molten . (liquid) or, pasty Condition, seither without or w:th the appli- cation of mechanical forging effort. At present, . many ki s of welding are being used in indust- ry. To facilitate studies, volriouS; welding techniques are grouped together on the basis of the similar:1:ty of their, me- thods.'The classification ..of welding- techniques is based on the condition of the metal at the point of welding, at the moment of joining of the detal, and upon the source of energy, . Or the method 'of heating the metal 'during welding. goider= Lim= S E? C R .E T.

'Li 50X1 workpieces, the following kinds of Welding are distinguished: ? a) chemical welding, , b) electric welding, and -0) electro-Chemical welding.: In fusion welding the edgee.of the pieces to be joined are heated to the' melting point. No meohanical_pressure is re-,? quired in this case, since joining of:the.pieces takes?place as a result.of.spOntaneptio mixing of. tha molten metal in.a mon -welding puddle: Whenmetal..cools off, .a welded seam results.. For this reason, fuSion welding is' often terOed- utogenous: welding", that is "self-originating" welding. Note. Unfortunately, the term "autogenous Welding" is very often identified *with the term "oxp,acetylehe, welding" .and is Used in. this restricted sense, which la wrong. 'As can be understood 'from the above, description; and in accordance with standard technical terminology; the term "autogenous welding" actually is synonymouo. to efusion welding". Consequently, electric welding. also comes under thedefinition. of autogenous Welding. In pressure welding thesedges-of the parts to be Joined,.,. as a rule, are heated to a plastic (pasty) state, after which they are joined together by applying a mechanical pressure (upsetting). ' Intensely high preheating temperatures are not required for pressure welding, and in *some cases this kinliof welding.

'According to their principle of-operation, the welding torches are divided into two groups, i.e. low-pressure (inject- or-type) torches and high-pressure (non-injector-type) torches. An. injector torch can be operated at an acetylene inlet :.. ? - 2 Pressure of o.02 to 0.08 kg/cm g.p. and an oxygen pressure. :71 Of about 3.0 to 3.5 kg/cm g.p., irrespective of the tip being us? ed.

To obtain a high-quality weld, the position of the -aame relatively to the molten metal, as well as the direction of movement of t'ne torch and filler rod should be strictly uni- form and should remain constant until the depositing of the ? weld is completed. There are several different methods of moving the torch in the process of deposi.i.2.:-g a weld (Fig. 44). The selection of -a particular pattern of torch movement de-- 4 pends upon the thickness of the pieces to be welded, type of joint and method of Welding. When. Metal sheets with flang- ed edges are being welded, the torch moves along a straight line or with but minor fluctuations to both sides(Fig.44!..a). .Whep welding butt joints of perts of over 2-mm thickness, zigzag movement of the torch is preferable (Pig.4-14-b). When thin-metal parts are being weldecl, the pattern shcwn in Fig. 44-c is commonly made use of; however, here the flame is moved to one side of the joint, thus allowing the molten me- tal of the weld to come in contact with the atmospheric oxy- gen and to become oxidized. Consequently, this method should .-7?' be avoided. In welding thick-metal perts (over 5 mm), good-quality welds are obtained when the torch describes a spiral (Fig..1414-d) The following rules should be adhered to when using gas welding for joining machine parts; 1. Welding condition specifications (i.e. tIp number, pressure of' oxygen and filler, wire diameter) are selected from Table 7. - 2. Welding should be performed by the reducing zone Ea neutral flame. The flame nucleus should be held at a dis- tance of 2 or 3 iam from the molten metal (Fie,:45)?

The intensity of the flame and the speed of welding .should be accurately coordinated. Insufficient flame intem- sity-and excessive welding speed result in lack of penetra- ii ition, while in the opposite case burning-through occurs. I 4. To avoid lack of penetration and the formation of i 1 ' - cracks, the zone about the joint should be preheated. I 5. The selection of a correct angle of torch incline ,sinci of filler-rod incline is of major importance. 6. The base metal should melt without spattering and evenly over the entire surface. The filler metal should melt !tin the mass of the molten base metal. iDue to the movements of the filler rod and the torch, 4 more intensive mixing of the base and filler metal is 7 ;secured. Early melting of filler metal results in lack of Tenetration. When parts of different thickness are being welded, Ahe flame of the torch should be directed on the thicker of the.two parts. _ .18.

Avoid a second heating of the weld by the flame of the torch, as this may result in the formation of Cracks. 10. The welding of horizontal, vertical and overhead ' joints is complicated ba the fact that the moltEn metal of , the weld flows downwards due to its own weight. To obtain a / normal weld in these positions, follow rules given below: , a) Use a torch tip one size (one numbr) smaller than :.that used in welding a similar joint in the downhand position. . T b) The joint should be made by the welding of short sections (15 to 20 mm). c) When welding horizontal joints, first heat the bottom edge, and then direct the torch flame towards the top edge. a ?

Therefore, thick elements are to he welded with straight polarity, that is, the positive terminal (anode) is to be connected to the workpiece, and the negative terminal (cathode) to the electrode; on such an arrangement more heat is liberated at the workpiece, and less at the electrode. Thin elements, on the contrary, are welded with reversed polarity, ?:44t - 1 i.e. with the wOrkpiece connected to the negative terminal, and the electrode to the positive terminal. ? When welding with alternating current, polarity loses its significance, since the current alters its direction with considerable frequency and the quantity of heat liberated at both poles (i.e. on, the electrode and the weldment) is equal. If no polarity signs for positive, and ? for negative) are to be found on the generator terminals, to establish the corresponding contacts, use one of the methods described 1. lower the ends of wires connected to the generator ter? minals into a weak solution ofsulphuric acid. As a result of .sulphuric atoll decomposition, intense evolution of hydrogen* bubbles will take place at one of the immersed ends. This is the wire connected to the generator negative terminal. 2.

Weld external defects As a result of dsviating from recommended techniques in the course of welding of metals, certain defects which reeluce the strength and reliability of welded joints originate in the welds. The most common causes of defects ere, a) Poor quality of preparing the workpieces for welding; h) Improperly selected welding conditions; c) Deviations from welding techniques,'; The external defects of welds and the causes of their originatiOn are described below. 1)Weld of wrong shape and eomet- rical dimension s. The defects of this group are normally caused by faulty and careless edge preparation, un- even movement of the electrode or torch and that of the filler Wire. These defects worsen weld general appearance and cause weld weakening due to the difference in dimensions which should be similar, Besides, uneven destribution of the deposited me- ?L tel. along the weld and the difference in deposited iaetal Shrinkage may also cause crack formation, both in the deposit- ed metal of the weld and in the base metal of the adjoining weld them this reason, thoroughly cheek such welds for cracks, t hem up, if any, and deposit reinforcing welds in the Placea which have been weakened. 2)Bx-ternal cradkamay be encountered both lon0i-eudinally and transversally relative to weld direction, A 4 and maY be found uoth in the weld proper and in the weld sone. ey?Aep p7oaveecdsfoarrRee lae arse:12011%7:1 /i0n9t:er:- RsDtPr e8086-00:87:00b:300300001 -7 in Part - Sanitized Collip r , Declassified in Part -Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2014/01/09: CIA-RDP80-00247A001300300001-2 ?

Cracks are more often formed in metals characterized by poor weldability, and also as a result of a wrong working order in weld depositing, Cracks are a dange- roue defect. Sections of weld with cracks should be cut out and revel:tea. 3)Undercuts. The undercut is the thinning of metal at the point of juncture between the base metal and the weld metal. This defect results from using excessive currents or a torch of excessive power. In both cases too much heat is produced at the weld edge, resulting in the over-melting of the base metal. To eliminate this defect, clean the under- cut and deposit a reinforcing bead here. 4)Lack of penetration. Thelackofpe- netration means that the base metal has not merged with the deposited metal. Due to the lack of penetration the cohesion Of particles of metal is not strong enough and the weld at this point is weakened. Consentration of stresses in the places Where there is a lack of penetration additionally weakens the weld and deprives it of any strength at all. The lack of penetration results from welding with a low current or with an unsufficiontly powerful torch, from an ex- ti L cessively high travel speed of the elecrodc or torch .p, from the angle between the bevelled edges being too small, from in preparation of workpiece surfaces prior to welding, metal etc' To eliminate the lack of penetration, the deposited should be cut out and the defective place rewelded. - 5) Cony e z I t y This defect reeulte from the elect- ti ?? rode or filler wire melting too rapidly wle the base metal ,.; lin:, no: yet eufficiently heated.

These metal excrescen- ces should be cut off, and the welds thoroughly checked for poeeible lack of penetratien. 39. Weld internal defects 1)Porosity of weld . Porosity may result . . because of the following reasons, a) Aboorption of gases by the molten metal, fer inetance absorption of hydrogen, oxides of carbon, etc., which fail to exude from the molten metal puddle due to quick metal so- lidification and which remain in the metal in the form of gas bubble?. b) Poor quality of joint edge degreasing and inadequate cleaning of dirt rust, etc. o) Itetal shrinkage during its crystallization. To detect the internal porosity of a weld, it is tested by kerosene. In gao welding, the elimination of porosity is achieved by fPrging. Porous wed s detected invital aircraft parts should be cut out and rewelded. 2)Lack of penetration at the J ?lot edge G. lit 'a point of weld fracture the lack f penetration car. be seen in the shape of a dark line between the base and the deposited metal. The lack of penetration may rilluit from-using an unsufficiently powerful arc or torch, 16 ell ao from exaormive travel opeed of the electrode or torch along the joint being welded. The lack of penetration deteetod only by X,-ray control. The defective places al4lad be cut out and rewelded. 3iInt mai er tick o are due to the COMO s.

Checking weld tightness in tanks and pipes. TO ?check weld tightness in tanks an pipes, hydraulic or pneumatic tests are performed. In a hydraulic test, the tank is filled with water and, by using a pusp, Is subjected to a pressure which is one end a half times highee than the tank working pressure. Utica or sweating of the eeam discovered in places stieh are not adequately tight will reveal the defective portions ef the. weld. In a pneumatic test, an air pressure amounting to 045 per cent of the working pressure is set up inside the tank which is. either submerged in water or has its welded joints coated" with soap water? The leaky places it the seam will be detected by the appearance of soap buSsIess If the air pressure in the tank being checked is. raised above i kg,cm2gep,, safety precautions should he taken, to prevent accidents in case of tank destruetiore To perform pneumatic checks of welded tanks, use a pump equipped sits a reservoir, and cheek the pressure by pressure gauge.

General information on tresses in welds Every operator performing practical welding should re- sesber that a welded joint is dee.igned to communicate stres- ses from one structural element to other elements. The qua- lity of welding has a great influence upon the value of stress which can be. safely communicated by a given weld without?danger of its destruction. The slain principle which is usually employed as the basis for ^nleulation and ? design of welded joints is that the weld strength . . . .?lould approach the strength for the-workpiece proper. This principle is also accepted as a guide in selecting the methods of repairing a damaged part. The aim ? is that the strength of a part repaired by welding be equal to that of a newly manufactured part. It is true, that this requirement can not always be sa- tisfied, but calculations help to evaluate the degree of ttrength. reduction and to take a correct decision as to the imethod of repair to te chosen. .i A welder employed in an aircraft repair shop should. be . ili:kain general, and t. h ansdomwietohfcathlec'ule: calculation , 1, ? . elements f equ tosofsatrl trensgthengt inl calculationhweded .1.i?iSts in particular.

When these rules are adhered to, the electric-arc and oxyLaeetylene processes are not dangerous or harmful to the welder's health. For this reason, only those who have thorough- ly mastered welding equipment andafety first rules may be allowed to perform welding. The drops and spattering of the molten metal may be the cause 617 a fire or of burns suffered by the welder. Scattered to a considerable range, drops of molten metal can set inflam- mable mate,rials on fire, this danger -being further aggravated by the fact that the fire may break out several hours after the completiontf welding. This is the reason why the floors and partitiona of welding ehope should be made of non-comtus- title materials. Accumulation of inflammable materials in weld7 ing shops and in the vicinity Of welding areas should not be tolerated. 'When working close to wooden structures, protect the wooden elements and other parts made of inflammable materials ty sheets of asbestos moistened with water, or by metal sheets. To protect himself against burns, the welder should wear a jacket, trousers and gloYes made of dense tarpaulin; a leather *Troll is also desirable. The trousers should be long enough ..to be worn over the boots and should cover the latter. The J4cket should not be tucked into the trousers, and it pockets Should. be always closes with flaps.

During welding, the air becomes polluted With dust, gases and vapours which are a result of the burning of oil, paint, dirt, electrode metal, filler material, fluxes and the workpiece metal. The quantity of noxious gases increase When dirty, paint. ed or greased articles are being welded. The dust and gaaes originated during welding are harmful to the human organiem. Especially harmful are the duet and gases produced in the process of. welding alloys containing lead and copper. ? To reduce the harmful influence of dust and gases upon the welderidorganium, the welding shops should be provided with adequate ventilation facilities. The accumulation of gases may also become a cause of explosions and fires. . In this connection, an especially high degree of care should be exercised in the repair of aircraft gasoline and kerosene tanks when welding is used. As a result of heating of the metal during welding, even the smallest quantities of gasoline or keroseneleft produce vapours which may cause an explosion. . For this reason, prior to welding, the tanks should be thoroughly washed until all the remaining inflammable liquid -is fully removed, as instructed above. It is also recommended to'blow the tanks off with air during the welding. To reduce fire hazards, electric-arc and oxy-acetylene welding equiPment should not be accommodated in the same premises, and, more so, should they not be used simultaneously. ?AT Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2014/01/09: CIA-RDP80-00247A0013003onnn1 -9 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2014/01/09: CIA-RDP80-00247A001300300001-2 7 NO A DI SSEB ?...44.* Safety Measures in electric-arc weldin 50X1 The main faCtors producing harmful effect upon the human 'organism during 'electrio-are gelding may he the arc radiation, electric current, and dust produced. by the aro.

Ihe?short tie action of visible arc rays is to cause temporary .blindness; their-prolonged action upon unprotected eyes results' in injuries to the retina and impair keenness of eyesight. ? The .prolonged. action of infrared rays upon unprotected human eyes may result in dimming of the crystalline eye lens - ? .1*-4 .,!..tAt. ? and in reduction of keenness of eyesight.

It has already printed out that even a small content of acetylene in the ar produces an explosive sixture. There- fore, if there is a strong smell of acetylene in the welding room,, work should be discontinued at once, the premises thorough,' ly ventilated and the ca,.;ises of gas leak eliminated. when operating the rBB-1.25 and ecord generators, it should be borne in mind that this equipment is designed for use In the open. For temporary erection work, these generators may be temporarily insta7,1ed in living-house premises or work- shops, provided the prewl'ses are well ventilated and have a minimum volume of 300 v2, 111 Gas generators may on no account be operated in premises where substances producing explosive mixtures with acetylene are present (for instance, in boiler rooms and close to the air-intake ducts of air-compressors and ventilating fans). Gee generators should be installed at least 10 meters from .the place of welding or from any other source of open flame or intensively heated equipment, etc. '.Prior to commencing generator operation, check the water level in the water seal.

For - this reason, prior to being charged into the generator, car- .bide should be screened. Do not overcharge the generator basket with carbide. : Carefully Watch that there are no gas leaks from cracks, -plugs and other joints. If a leaky plug or cock is detected, tighten it up. Should a more serious gas leak occ"ur (for in- stance, through a weld or a threaded joint), first exhaust the remainder of the carbide charge, then wash and inspect _ the generator, and only after this proceed with elimination of leaks, using tools which produce no sparks (brass or alum4- ? niUm tools). ? Prior to igniting the torch Lor cutter), blow off the --water seal and hoses with acetylene, to remove the air in them. _ Do not attempt to obtain a greater than rated capacity from a generator, because this mayresult in acetylene over- heating.

In addition, the following rules should be adhered to= ? 1. Do not subject cylinders to violentolts end shocks, to prevent the porous mass from being packed down and to avoid cavity formation. 2. Do not subject cylinders to considerable heating (over 30?0), since this results in decrease in acetylene solubility in acetone, with subsequent rise in acetylene pressure. 3. When working.in the open, cover acetylene cylinders with a tarpaulin wetted with water, to protect them against ? heating by sun rays. v_L 4. Contrary' to oxygen ealindere, acetylene cylinders during welding should be positioned only vertically; if a 1.1LfiljiVLV cylinder is laid down,srin rtylene may occur.
