Thermal Processes in Welding

Part of the book series: Engineering Materials ((ENG.MAT.))

Abstract

In the analysis of thermal processes in welding the main properties of the metal are considered: thermal conductivity λ (W m−1 K−1), specific heat capacity c (J g−1 K−1) and density ρ (g m−3) and additional ones: thermal diffusivity a (m2 s−1) and specific enthalpy (specific heat content) H (J g−1).
