    摘要: Persistent compressive stresses sufficient to suppress hot cracking, reheat cracking and stress corrosion cracking are developed in welds containing alloys of plural materials by quenching of the weld after onset of solidification but while the weld remains soft or "mushy" at a temperature above the melting point of eutectic alloys which may form. Control of the time of quenching is preferably established during submerged welding by a cup-shaped exclusion fitting which is sized relative to the dimensions of a molten weld pool and the speed of travel of a welding heat source such as a plasma transfer arc torch. The cup-shaped exclusion fitting provides improved protection of the weld and heat source with inert gas supplied thereto while also permitting submerged welding at higher hydrostatic pressures than has heretofore been possible. An improved apparatus for transport of powdered welding materials provides for bleeding off of a portion of a flow of transport gas used to transport the powdered materials and can thus provide a reliable supply of such materials over increased distances and against increased gas pressures without compromising the welding heat source or the quality of the weld.

    摘要: A local environmental cell for a welding spray gun includes an annular ring having a top surface and a bottom surface, wherein the annular ring is adapted for attachment to an outer perimeter of the spray gun; and a plurality of fluid passageways radially disposed about the annular ring having a plurality of openings in the bottom surface of the ring in fluid communication with a vacuum source for providing a vacuum thereto. The use of the local environmental cell permits deposition of local bond coats as well as minimizes the number of steps associated with welding repair processes. For example, the use of the local environmental cell permits welding and formation of a low oxide bond coat during the welding process, thereby eliminating the need for placing the substrate subsequent to a welding process in a separate spray cell to deposit the bond coating.

    摘要: A shroud for a welding torch includes a hydrophilic skirt supported by a frame. The skirt is soft and pliable when wet and is self protected from the heat of welding by the water absorbed therein. The frame supports the skirt around the weld site and permits a good seal with the workpiece for excluding water during the welding process.

    摘要: A wetting balance includes a load cell for suspending a specimen above a crucible containing a molten braze pool. A lift supports the crucible for vertical lifting thereof to effect an immersion cycle of the specimen in the pool. A controller operates the lift and determines first contact with the pool by measuring force changes thereat and produces a measured force log during the immersion cycle. In operation, the lift is operated for a predetermined time following first contact for immersing the specimen to a predetermined depth in the pool.

    摘要: A double cantilever beam (DCB) assembly is disclosed, comprising a fracture specimen having a notch which defines first and second spaced, substantially parallel, outwardly extending beams, terminating at a closed end where crack growth occurs and extending to an open end. The beams are connected to each other along at least a portion of a facing surface of each beam by two, substantially parallel ligaments, spaced from each other on the facing surfaces of the beams. Another disclosed embodiment is a corrosive environment measuring apparatus, comprising a double cantilever beam assembly disposed in an aqueous portion of a reactor vessel, and including the features described above. The reactor vessel is often a constituent of a nuclear reactor, and the DCB assembly is often disposed in a tube which is selectively lowered into the aqueous portion of the reactor vessel. The tube is usually a local power range monitor tube.
