Abstract

Cooling time in the temperature range 800 - 500°C has a great effect on the structures that arrise in the heat affected zone of welds steel. Data on optimal cooling time t8/5 for the certain steels can be found in the literature. The period of the cooling time t8/5, during the welding of the particular joints, in addition to the thickness and physical properties of welded steel, depends on shape of the weld, the welding process and welding parameters as well. In this work, the procedure for the selection of welding parameters for a butt joint welded to the microalloyed steel P 460 NL1 is presented. The microstructure in the heat affected zone and the results of measurement of their hardness are showed and analysed. It is concluded that the welding parameters selected with the help of cooling time t8/5 provide the satisfactory structure and hardness of welds.
