Abstract

In this study, a finite element analysis of a cylindrical multi-pass weldment for dissimilar metals was performed. The effects of the heat input method and weld bead generation method were considered. We compared two heat input methods: the heat flux method and the temperature method. We also compared two weld bead generation methods: the element birth method and the quiet element method. Although the results of the thermal analysis show deviations between the two heat input methods, the welding residual stresses were similar. Because the areas exposed to high temperature were similar and the strength of the material was very low in high temperature (above the $1000^{\circ}C$), the effects of the weld bead temperature were insignificant. The distributions of the welding residual stress were similar to each other. However, gaps and overlaps occurred on the welding boundary surfaces when the element birth method was applied. The quiet element method is more suitable for a large deformation model in order to simulate a more accurate weld shape.

본 논문에서는 원통형 다층 이종 금속 용접부를 대상으로 유한요소 해석을 수행하여, 열원 입력 방법과 용접 비드 생성 방법이 용접 잔류 응력 분포에 미치는 영향을 고려하였다. 열원 입력 방법은 열속 입력 방법과 온도 경계조건 입력 방법으로 나누어 비교하였고, 용접 비드 생성 방법은 요소망 생성 방법과 평온 요소망 방법으로 나누어 비교하였다. 두 열원 입력 방법에 따른 열 해석 결과는 차이가 있었으나, 응력 해석 결과는 유사하였다. 이것은 고온(약 $1000^{\circ}C$ 이상)에 노출되었던 영역이 비슷하고, 고온에서 재료의 강도가 매우 낮아 용접 비드의 온도가 용접잔류응력에 미치는 영향이 미미하기 때문이다. 두 용접 비드 생성 방법의 용접 잔류응력 분포는 유사하였지만 요소망 생성 방법 적용 시 용접 비드 경계에서 겹침과 들뜸이 발생하였다. 대변형이 발생하는 모델의 용접부 형상을 정확하게 모사하기 위해서는 평온요소망이 더 적합하다고 판단된다.
