Analysis of Meat transfer and Residual Stress on the Weld Zone Using FEM

FEM을 이용한 용접부의 열전달 및 잔류응력 해석

This paper represents to develop a computer software system which is capable to analyze the phase transformation of high strength steel(BV-AH32) and to predict heat transfer, residual stress due to phase transformation during Gas Metal Arc(GMA) welding. The developed model was taken into account temperature dependent of young's modules, coefficient of thermal expansion and yield stress as well as the double ellipsoidal heat distribution by the moving arc. The results showed that the longitudinal and transverse residual stresses calculated by the coupled analysis of heat transfer, residual stress and phase transformation are in good agreement with the experimental data. In addition, the temperature distribution as well as longitudinal and transverse residual stresses of weldment were determined at the 1-pass and 2-pass of welding.
