Introduction
Thermal models are useful in calculating temperature fieldsduring welding, and predicting fusion zone widths, peaktemperatures and cooling rates in heat-affected zone.
Although the accuracy of simple analytical models is limited, thepredictions are helpful in understanding the effects of processparameters on metallurgical changes.
Consider an autogenous arc welding process (e.g. GTAW). If
2
,steady-state temperature field surrounding the heat source willbe established. The isotherms that define this field can bepredicted using analytical solutions for heat flow with a constantheat source.

Moving Heat Sources
In most welding processes, the heat source moves at a constant speed
along a straight line, and the heat supplied by the power source is constant. A pseudo-steady state temperature field around the heat source will be
developed, which means this temperature field moves in the plate alongwith the heat source. To determine T at any given point, P, we need thefollowing simplifying assumptions:
Steady-state heat flow
Negligible heat of fusion
Constant thermal

properties
No heat losses from
the workpiece surface No convection in
the weld pool2-D Model
Assume a thin plate, negligible temperature variations through the thickness, andtwo-dimensional heat flow:

The Rosenthal Equations are based on a number of assumptions that simplify the
mathematical treatment of heat flow in welding. This makes the model relativelyeasy to use; however, there are a number of factors that limit the accuracy of
Rosenthal Model’s Limitations
1. Arc efficiency may not be accurately known.
2. Constant thermal properties are assumed, but really are temperaturedependant.
3. Radiation and convective losses from surface are ignored.
4. Fluid flow is neglected.
5. Complex geometry is ignored.
17
6. Heat is actually put in over an area, affecting predicted weld sizes, heating andcooling rates.
7. In arc processes, voltage and current each have their own roles, voltage affectswidth more and current affects depth more.

Temperature Fields in Welding 1018 Steel The effect of increasing the weld travel speed can be shown using the 3D
Rosenthal solution.
Increasing the travel speed results in an elongation of the isotherms and weldpool.
Note that the heat input must be increased in order to maintain a constant weldwidth when the travel speed is increased.

Numerical Simulations Modern computer technology allows numerical solutions (such as finite
element models) for 2-D or 3-D heat flow during welding without mostassumptions of Rosenthal’s analytical solutions required.
This level of complexity needed for most practical problems.
Essential to capture complexity of multi-material problems,temperature-dependent properties, complex geometry, etc.
Limitations:
Too easy to use without real insight into underlying behaviour –“garbage in = garbage out”
22
Each calculation covers one set of material/process conditions –cumbersome and slow to cover large parameter space
Numerical models may give better agreement with experimental results;however, the Rosenthal equations are very simple in application andprovide a good qualitative estimate of what can be expected.
