ABSTRACT
It is well known that welding dissimilar metals can play the advantages and characteristics of those different metals, but it is easy to encounter some problems. In this paper, the thermomechanical behavior of the weldolet-branch dissimilar steel joints in different welding cases is analyzed by establishing a three-dimensional finite element model, and the predicted thermal cycling and residual stresses are verified using experimental tools. The results show that the high temperature area and the heat affected zone on the side of the branch pipe are larger, and there is a large stress gradient at the fusion line on both sides of the weld. Too high or too low temperature between welding layers will cause large residual stress, thus, 200 °C is more suitable for the welding of weldolet-branch joints. The residual stresses of path-1, path-2 and path-3 have similar distributions at 0° and 180° sections, and the circumferential and axial residual stresses on the inner surface are larger than those on the outer surface. The residual stress on the inner and outer surfaces of path-3 is smaller than that of path-1 and path-2 at the 90° and 270° sections as a whole, and the residual stress at the 90° section reaches the minimum.
