In the circumferential welding of pipe, welding phenomenon changes with the position of pipe. Especially in the overhead position, back bead of vertical-up position would be sunk. To investigate the size of back bead and keyhole with the change of the flow rate of pilot and shield gas at each position, bead-on plate welds were conducted on 6mm thickness SS400 with inclined-up position. When the rest of welding conditions remained constant, the width of back bead was increased as the flow rate of pilot gas was increased. And back bead tended to convex as the flow rate of shield gas was increased.

폭발용접은 화약의 폭발에 의한 충격 에너지를 이용하여 금속을 접합시키는 방법으로서 화약의 폭발에 의해 생기는 순간적인 높은 에너지를 이용하는 접합법이다. 1944년에 처음으로 폭발용접의 기술적, 상업적인 이점으로 인해 수요가 증가하고 있는 실정이다. 적용 예는 거대한 판재의 cladding을 포함하여 cladding nozzle, tube 와 tubeplate의 접합, pipe와 pipe의 접합등에 사용되고 있다. 종래의 용접법으로는 용접이 곤란하거나 불가능한 것으로 생각되었던 이종금속에 대해서는 적용이 가능하 고, 용접에 의한 열영향을 받지 않으며 용접 속도가 대단히 빠르다는 잇점이 있다. 또한 용접의 차이가 커서 접합이 곤란한 금속을 폭발용접하면 이음부는 충분한 강도를 가지면서 용이하게 접합할 수 있는 것이 큰 특징이다. 대부분의 금속은 폭발용접이 가능하지만 폭발의 충격에 의해서 균열이 발생되기 쉽고 주철과 같이 취약한 금속 및 Mg을 함유한 알루미늄 합금(순 알루미늄과는 접합 가능함)등은 이 용접법을 사용하기 는 곤란하다. 시공상의 특징으로는 특별한 기계 장치가 필요하지 않고 모재가 판재 혹은 파이프상이면 모재 두께에 제한 받지 않고, 어떠한 형태와도 가능하기 때문에 다품종, 소량생산이 가능하다. 한편 접합시에 화약을 사용하기 때문에 취급에 있어서 주의를 요하고 큰 폭발음 때문에 용접장소의 제한을 받는다는 것이다.

MlAB(magnetically impelled arc butt) welding is a sort of pressure welding method by melting two pipe sections with high speed rotating arc and upsetting two pipes in the axial direction. The electro-magnetic force, the driving force of the arc rotation, is generated by interaction of arc current and magnetic field induced from the magnetic flux generator in the welding system. In this study, an openable coil system for the generation of magnetic flux and a 3-dimensional numerical model for analyzing the electro-magnetic field were proposed. Through the fundamental numerical analyses, a magnetic concentrator was adopted for smoothing the magnetic flux density distribution in the circumferential direction. And then a series of numerical analysis were performed for investigating the effect of system parameters on the magnetic flux density distribution in the interested welding area.. Numerical quantitative analyses showed that magnetic flux density distribution generated from the proposed coil system is mainly dependent on the exciting current in the coil and the position of coil or concentrator from the pipe outer surface. And the gap between pipe ends and arc current are also considered as important factors on arc rotating behavior.

SBD (Strain-based design) of pipe lines have gained world-wide attention in recent years. The present research aims to evaluate the fracture characteristics of API (America Petroleum Institute) SBD X100 girth weldment that typically applied for cold climate and deep water offshore, with the focus on the influence of heat input changing with 6kJ/cm and 10kJ/cm from GMAW (Gas Metal Arc Welding). At a low heat input at 6kJ/cm, the weld metal had Multi-phase matrix (Acicular ferrite + Banite + Martensite) that could fill up both fracture toughness and strength as reported previously. Also, the weld metal exhibited 859MPa YS (Yield strength), 108J impact toughness at $-40^{\circ}C$ and 0.52mm CTOD (Crack Tip Open Displacement) at $-10^{\circ}C$. These results can be satisfied with the requirement of API SBD X100 girth weldment and Alaska pipe line project.
