An algorithm and program for determination of welding parameters of CO2 V-butt one pass welding is studied. The proposed program is applicable to the globular transfer condition of 1.6 mm wire diameter.
The Jackson's experimental relationship between groove shape and penetration depth was used to determine a penetration as a function of crosssectional area of V-groove.
Calculated parameters were confirmed experimentally to give the full penetration and good bead appearance of V-butt joint from 9 to 16 mm in thickness.
