Calculation of the Heat Content of the Electrode Metal Droplet Wshen Applying Power Supplies for Manual Arc Welding With Different Volt-Ampere Characteristic

摘要

In the paper the authors provide the method for calculating the heat content of the molten electrode metal droplets according to the energy parameters of the power supplies for manual metal arc welding. It was established that the type of the welding power supply has a significant impact upon the temperature, mass and active surface area of the electrode droplets.
