Abstract

Microwave joining is a new field of research that needs to be explored and standardized to make it commercially viable. In this work, effects of process parameters are analyzed during joining of Inconel-625 through microwave hybrid heating. Experiments are conducted inside a microwave applicator under varied experimental conditions. Effects of variation in process parameters are analyzed to see their effect on melting of the joint interface. Effect of four input parameters (size of drilled hole of vertical charcoal feeder, thickness of graphite sheet, thickness of insulation brick, surface contact between refractory and insulation brick) on the melting region have been investigated during this work. Results of this work show the correct melting of the joint zone, absence of defects such as crater formation and no spreading of the charcoal powder on specimen.
