Abstract
  Bead shape control with gas force process has been developed to overcome the concave back bead in pipe orbital welding. However, It is impossible to make a convex back bead using the existing gas nozzle, because it has high gas-consuming and low gas force. The purpose of this paper, to develop optimum shape of nozzle which to reduce the consumption of gas, maximizing the shield gas force with low cost and high productivity coincide the Green welding. In this paper venturi-type nozzle was designed by using the Venturi meter and compared velocity, pressure, arc shape in the flat position with existing CP-nozzle. As a result, Venturi-type nozzle"s maximum velocity and pressure was improved at the same flow rate. Also heat input was increased by the arc contraction in the flat position.
Key Words: TIG welding, Orbital welding, Nozzle shape, Venturi-type nozzle, Shield gas velocity, Shield gas pressure, Gas force
