Parametric Study of Variation in Peak Temperature for Different Tool Material in AA6061 FSW Welded Butt Joint Using Altair Hyperweld
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 6
Abstract
Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is an emerging solid-state joining technology that is being developed since last two decades. In this present study, three dimensional nonlinear virtual experiments is conducted using ALTAIR Hyperweld FSW software module for the butt joint of Al6061 taking three different tool materials like Tungsten, Molybdenum and Tool Steel. Also during FSW simulation tool rotational speed is varied from 600 rpm to 1500 rpm with range of 300 rpm in case of each tool material. Then the thermal distribution for each simulation is analysed critically. This virtual experiment presents the temperature field in FSW process with variation in tool material, tool rpm and their comparative effects on workpiece on the basis of obtained contours which suggest the best rpm and type of tool material that is best suitable for FSW of Al6061. Altair hyper weld module is a new generation speedy tool for the analysis of the welded joint and the welding industries can be benefitted a lot. Also it is a best tool to conduct the virtual experiments to get the prediction of the various results prior to conduct the actual experiment or production in order to reduce to economical testing cost.
