What protects the molten SAW pool from the atmosphere?
The methodused for protecting molten SAW pool from the atmosphere.
Explanation of Solution
SAW stands for Submerged Arc Welding. It is a type of welding process which is used for thejoining of similar as well as dissimilar metals.In SAW, the arc is produced between the electrode and workpiece to be joined. The heat produced from this arc is used for the fusion of these metals.The fusion forms a molten pool. This molten pool is protected from the atmosphere by using a thick layer of flux or slag. The molten flux or slag is formed by the granular fluxing.
This slag covers the spark, radiation of arc and fumes which are produced duringthe welding process. It also prevents the molten metal to react with the contaminants of air, and hence gives a good quality of weld. Submerged Arc
Welding is used in horizontal welding position. It has a high penetrating power. This high power reduces the amount of filler metal used in the welding process. It has high amount of deposition rate. It possesses a better quality of weld.

- 2. A strut in a space frame has a rectangular cross section of 10.0 mm by 30.0 mm. It sees a load that varies from a tensile force of 20.0 kN to a compressive force of 8.0 kN.arrow_forwardfind stress at Qarrow_forwardI had a theoretical question about attitude determination. In the attached images, I gave two axis and angles. The coefficient of the axes are the same and the angles are the same. The only difference is the vector basis. Lets say there is a rotation going from n hat to b hat. Then, you introduce a intermediate rotation s hat. So, I want to know if the DCM produced from both axis and angles will be the same or not. Does the vector basis affect the numerical value of the DCM? The DCM formula only cares about the coefficient of the axis and the angle. So, they should be the same right?arrow_forward

A particle of mass m slides down the tube under the action of gravity. If there is a coefficient of friction μ between the tube and the particle, what is the steady-state speed of the particle?

A particle of mass m is embedded at a distance R from the center of a massless circular disk of radius R which can roll without slipping on the inside surface of a fixed circular cylinder of radius 3R. The disk is released with zero velocity from the position shown and rolls because of gravity, all motion taking place in the same vertical plane. Find: (a) the maximum velocity of the particle during the resulting motion; (b) the reaction force acting on the disk at the point of contact when it is at its lowest position.
