- Abstract
This research aims to compare among the generated heat flux during welding with and without fillers. The study covered the effect of welding current, welding time, welding velocity, gas flow from cylinder, gas flow before welding and gas flow on the generated heat flux during this comparison. Tungsten inert gas welding method was used to weld stainless steel sheets with 3 mm thickness as base metal with and without filler for preparing butt weld joints. Welding currents of 80A, 85A, 90A, 95A and 100A were applied using 2 mm diameter welding electrodes (ER308). The results showed that the average value of the generated heat flux was reduced by 36.7% without filler in comparison to that using filler material. The difference of energy saving among the two methods was 481.7 J/mm.
