  • Of the marine engine components, the piston crown and exhaust valve are repaired most frequently. These works are conducted through conventional welding processes such as GTAW or SAW, domestically in marine engine repair factories. New high-efficiency welding or overlay processes such as tandem SAW, tandem MAG, hybrid TIG-MIG welding, pulsed-GMAW, CMT welding, and super TIG welding have been developed recently. Moreover, the plasma transfered arc (PTA) process is an efficient spray method for overlaying on the exhaust valve. In this review paper, the new high-efficiency repair welding methods are introduced for marine engine components. The problems due to repair welding for marine engine components are also presented.

  • In the coarse grained HAZ of conventional TiN steel, most TiN particles are dissolved and austenite grain growth easily occurrs during high heat input welding. To avoid this difficulty, thermal stability of TiN particles is improved by increasing nitrogen content in EH36-TM steel. Increased thermal stability of TiN particle is helpful for preventing austenite grain growth by the pinning effect. In this study, the mechanical properties and microstructures of high heat input welded Tandem EGW joint in EH36-TM steel with high nitrogen content were investigated. The austenite grain size in simulated HAZ of the steel at $1400^{\circ}C$ was much smaller than that of conventional TiN steel. Even for high heat input welding, the microstructure of coarse grained HAZ consisted of fine ferrite and pearlite and the mechanical properties of the joint were sufficient to meet all the requirements specified in classification rule.

  • One of the main challenges of the automatic arc welding process which has been widely used in various constructions such as steel structures, bridges, autos, motorcycles, construction machinery, ships, offshore structures, pressure vessels, and pipelines is to create specific welding knowledge and techniques with high quality and productivity of the production-based industry. Commercially available automated arc welding systems use simple control techniques that focus on linear system models with a small subset of the larger set of welding parameters, thereby limiting the number of applications that can be automated. However, the correlations of welding parameters and bead geometry as welding quality have mostly been linked by a trial and error method to adjust the welding parameters. In addition, the systematic correlation between these parameters have not been identified yet. To solve such problems, a new or modified models to determine the welding parameters for tandem GMA (Gas Metal Arc) welding process is required. In this study, A new predictive model called STACO model, has been proposed. Based on the experimental results, STACO model was developed with the help of a standard statistical package program, MINITAB software and MATLAB software. Cross-comparative analysis has been applied to verify the reliability of the developed model.

  • To enhance productivity and provide high quality production material in a GMA welding process, weld quality, productivity and cost reduction affects the number of process variables. In addition, a reliable welding process and conditions must be implemented to reduce weld structure failure. In various industries the welding process mathematical model is not fully formulated for the process parameter and on the welding conditions, therefore only partial variables can be predicted. The research investigates the interaction between the welding parameters (welding speed, distance between electrodes, and flow rate of shielding gas) and bead geometry for predicting the weld bead geometry (bead width, bead height). Taguchi techniques are applied to bead shape to develope curve equation for predicting the optimized process parameters and quality characteristics by analyzing the S/N ratio. The experimental results and measured error is within the range of 10% presenting satisfactory accuracy. The curve equation was developed in such a way that you can predict the bead geometry of constructed machinery that can be used for making tandem welding process.

  • The use of a built-up H-beam (BH) that can easily manufacture a section is increasing. This is a basic study on standardization of BH. It confirmed the material properties of SM490 and SM520 steel such as yield strength, tensile strength, elongation, charpy absorbed energy, and else. The six BH specimens were manufactured with single-SAW or tandem-SAW. The welding performance was confirmed by collecting the macroscopic specimen and T-bar tensile specimen form the BH. As a result of the material property test, the properties of SM490 and SM520 which are made in Korea both satisfied the KS. As a result of the welding performance experiment, it is determined that the weld zone of BH has sufficient welding performance. Therefore, they are determined that the SM490 and SM520 steel are a proper material of BH, and the single-SAW and the tandem-SAW show a sufficient welding performance.

  • In this paper, two dimensional theoretical solutions of temperature distribution and thermal stress due to tandem cooling in an infinite plate were studied. Temperature distribution and thermal stress were calculated by numerical integration. Calculated temperature distributions were in good agreement with the result of the experiments by Park, and calculated thermal stresses were in good agreement with physical phenomena. This solutions could be applied to the practical tandem cooling operations.
