Abstract

The controlled short-circuit transfer is used to control the heat input of the molten pool and the base metal in the cold metal transfer welding process, including droplet formation, droplet transfer and molten pool flow. Based on the influence of arc pressure on the surface of the molten pool, droplet impact and residual energy on the flow behavior of the molten pool, this research proposes the arc pressure driving model, the droplet impact driving model and the residual energy transfer model on the molten pool surface respectively, and on this basis, a theoretical model of controlled driving and spreading of the cold metal transition bath is proposed. The theoretical relationship between the surface shape of the keyhole and the driving force, and the relationship between the surface shape of the molten pool and the welding current are established. The model accurately predicts the formation width and contact angle of the molten pool in a specific interval, which can better control the welding process and geometry.
