Method for determination of technological mode parameters of electron-beam welding based on the application of optimality criterion with the view on the weld pool uniform heating

The paper presents the results of mathematical modelling of temperature fields when the AMG-6 alloy is heated with energy sources equivalent to an electron beam in electron-beam welding. The evaluation of the results was performed using the criterion of optimality proposed by the authors. Used as a functional for calculations was the normalized standard deviation of the temperature from heating by a complex heat source consisting of mobile instantaneous point and linear energy sources. Proposed in this work are both an algorithm for finding solutions using an optimality criterion and the results of calculations for plates with thicknesses of 0.12cm and 1.2cm from the AMG-6 material, which were compared with experiments carried out under laboratory conditions.
