During a TIG welding process, the arc current and arc voltage were 50 A and 60 V, respectively, when the welding speed was 150 mm/min. In another process, the TIG welding is carried out at a welding speed of 120 mm/min at the same arc voltage and heat input to the material so that weld quality remains the same. The welding current (in A) for this process is ___________
-
- 40.00
- 44.72
- 55.90
- 62.25
Correct Option: A
Total heat input = VIt
Time t is inversely proportional to weld speed (S)
∴ | = | ||
S2 | S1 |
∴ I2 = | × 50 | |
150 |
I2 = 40A
