Abstract
Abstract Dissimilar welds of Monel 400 and AISI 316 are extensively used in boiler feedwater heat exchanges, petrochemical industries, nuclear industries where moderate weld strength and high corrosion resistance are required. In this paper, dissimilar welded joint between Monel 400 and AISI 316 have been developed by employing Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG), pulsed TIG and Interpulse TIG welding techniques. The heat input rates and filler wire for joining the base metals were same for three welding techniques. The developed weldments have been inspected by employing X-ray Radiography Test (XRT) to determine the macro/micro defects. The tensile properties of weldments have been evaluated. The ultimate strength of TIG, pulsed TIG and Interpulse TIG weldments were observed to be 528 MPa, 542 MPa and 588 MPa, respectively. The tensile properties of Interpulse TIG weldments are superior to that of welds made of other two welding techniques.
