초록

마찰교반용접은 소재와 용접 툴 간의 마찰열에 의해 접합되는 고상접합 공정이다. 용접 시 발생하는 입열량에 따라 용접부의 건전성이 결정된다. 과도한 입열량은 산화물 및 기공결함의 원인이 되며, 불충분한 입열량은 터널결함 등의 문제점이 발생한다. 따라서 마찰교반용접부 중심에서의 온도 이력을 파악하는 것은 건전성을 판단하는 데 있어 매우 중요한 연구이다. 본 연구에서는 마그네슘 합금소재에 대한 마찰교반용접부의 온도분포 특성을 평가하였다. 이를 위해 유한요소해석을 통한 마찰교반용접부의 유동장 및 온도분포를 예측하였다. 유한요소해석을 위해 용접 툴 형상 간소화, 마찰 조건 선정 등 선행 해석을 수행하고 최적조건을 도출하였다. 또한, 해석모델의 검증을 위해 마그네슘 합금의 맞대기 마찰교반용접 시 용접부 중앙에서의 온도를 측정하였다. 유한요소해석 결과 마찰교반용접부의 온도에 영향을 미치는 주요변수의 기여도는 회전속도가 이송속도보다 더 높은 것으로 판단된다. 또한, 용접부 중심에서의 실측 온도와 유한요소해석 결과 사이에 5.4% - 7.7% 수준의 오차 내에서 잘 일치하였다.

Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a solid-state joining process involving the frictional heat between the materials and tools. The amount of heat conducted into the workpiece determines the quality of the welded zone. Excessive heat input is the cause of oxides and porosity defects, and insufficient heat input can cause problems, such as tunnel defects. Therefore, analyzing the temperature history and distribution at the center of the Friction Stir Welded zone is very important. In this study, the temperature distribution of the friction stir welding region of an AZ61 magnesium alloy was investigated. To achieve this goal, the temperature and metal flow was predicted using the finite element method. In FE analysis, the welding tool was simplified and the friction condition was optimized. Moreover, the temperature measuring test at the center of the welding region was performed to verify the FE results. In this study, the tool rotation speed was a more dominant factor than the welding speed. In addition, the predicted temperature at the center of the welding region showed good agreement with the measurement results within the error range of 5.4% - 7.7%.
