焊接工艺方法对6061-T6铝合金焊接接头疲劳性能的影响

通过对6061铝合金MIG焊接头和TIG焊接头在对应的加载应力条件下疲劳寿命的测定,对比分析了两种工艺方法对铝合金焊接接头疲劳性能的影响。结果表明,在加载应力低于焊接接头静载力学性能的90%时,焊接接头的疲劳寿命均能满足需求背景的需要(100000次不破坏)。同样载荷条件下,MIG焊接头的疲劳性能优于TIG焊接头,尤其是在高应力条件下,MIG焊接头的优势更为明显。焊接接头显微组织分析表明,MIG焊接头比TIG焊接头具有更为细小的晶粒和焊接热影响区,有效地提高了接头的滑移形变抗力,抑制了循环滑移带的形成和开裂,从而提高接头的疲劳性能。疲劳断口分析显示,试件的表面缺陷(疏松、气孔、夹杂等)及机械损伤是疲劳裂纹主要的策源地。     

Experimental comparison between aircraft fuel tank inerting processes using NEA and MIG

Fuel tank inerting technologies are able to reduce the fire risk by injection of inert gas into the ullage or fuel, the former called ullage washing and the latter fuel scrubbing. The Green On-Board Inert Gas Generation System (GOBIGGS) is a novel technology based on flameless catalytic combustion, and owning to its simple structure and high inerting efficiency, it has received a lot of attentions. The inert gas in the GOBIGGS is mainly comprised of CO₂, N₂, and O₂ (hereinafter, Mixed Inert Gas (MIG)), while that in the On-Board Inert Gas Generation System (OBIGGS), which is one of the most widely used fuel tank inerting technologies, is Nitrogen-Enriched Air (NEA). The solubility of CO₂ is nearly 20 times higher than that of N₂ in jet fuels, so the inerting capability and performance are definitely disparate if the inert gas is selected as NEA or MIG. An inerting test bench was constructed to compare the inerting capabilities between NEA and MIG. Experimental results reveal that, if ullage washing is adopted, the variations of oxygen concentrations on the ullage and in the fuel are nearly identical no matter the inert gas is NEA or MIG. However, the ullage and dissolved oxygen concentrations of MIG scrubbing are always higher than those of NEA scrubbing.     

纯铝与镀锌钢板MIG熔-钎焊工艺研究

采用Al-Mg,Al-Si两种填充焊丝,研究了纯铝与镀锌钢板异种金属材料的MIG熔-钎焊工艺,分析了焊接接头的界面结构特征及其力学性能。研究结果表明:在合适的焊接参数下,选用两种填充焊丝可以实现纯铝板(1060)与镀锌钢板的MIG熔-钎焊。与添加Al-Mg焊丝相比,填充Al-Si焊丝,界面反应层由θ-Al3Fe,η-Al5Fe2和AlFeSi相组成,且反应层较薄,焊缝中加入Si元素有效地抑制了金属间化合物层的生长,此时所获得的拉剪强度较大,接近纯铝板(1060)的抗拉强度,接头断裂发生在焊缝位置。     

焊接方法对5A06铝合金厚板焊缝接头性能的影响

分别采用搅拌摩擦焊(FSW)和熔化极氩弧焊(MIG)对20mm厚的5A06铝合金进行了焊接试验,对两种焊接方式的焊缝接头进行了机械性能测试、显微组织的观察以及表面残余应力的检测。结果表明,搅拌摩擦焊缝接头的抗拉强度比熔化极氩弧焊缝接头的高,搅拌摩擦焊缝接头往往断裂于前进侧的熔合过渡区,熔化极氩弧焊缝接头断裂于热影响区;相比熔化极氩弧焊,搅拌摩擦焊接头晶粒明显细化,焊缝中Mg、Mn等合金元素烧损明显减少,焊缝表面的残余应力水平也较低。
