Effects of arc bubble behaviors and characteristics on droplet transfer in underwater wet welding using in-situ imaging method

The effects of arc bubble behaviors and characteristics on droplet transfer are observed with an in-situ X-ray imaging method. The changes in the force acting on the droplet are analyzed at three distinct stages of arc bubble in one life cycle. The maximum gas flow drag force acting on the droplet e...
