Abstract
A coefficient of the strength of welded joints in structures of copper and its alloys made by manual arc welding are known. At the Severedonetsk Branch of the Institute of Chemical Engineering the strength coefficients were determined for welded joints made of MZR (phosphorous-deoxydized) copper produced by manual argonarc welding. Optimum welding regimes were selected, and specimens of strips tested for tensile strength. Metallographic investigations showed significant grain growth in the zone of thermal influence. The results of mechanical tests are given. The results are verified by the fabrication of nine models. All the models ruptured in the zone of thermal influence, confirming results that the zone of thermal influence was the weak point in the welded joints in copper.
