The present paper describes an attempt to determine the effective conduction heat in arc welding. The total energy input to the arc is measured by the calibrated voltmeter and ammeter and the theoretical value of conduction heat is determined from the result of the first report. It is therefore the most important factor to determined the maximum temperature at any point attaind by welding heat. A great difficulty in making the necessary measurement is rapid heating and cooling rate of plate.
For the purpose of the determination of temperature, it is proposed that the estimation of the depth of metal penetration or the area of melted zone in base plate and also the depth of heat penetration or the area of zone heated above Ac
1 transformation point. It is because that the maximum temperature distributions of plate by the welding heat, produce the various microstructures of heated zone corresponding to the maximum temperature.
Comparing to microstructures of adjacent part of weld, the author shows the microstructures of low carbon steel specially treated at various temperatures by the short time local heating. Temperature at a point in distance 20mm. from weld line is also measured by the Ft-Pt.Rh thermo-couple and calibrated milivoltriicter.
From these experiments and the theoretical considerations, the effective conduction heat is deterniined in the various cases.
