Abstract
In the developed computer application Proj5.exe the idea of a sequential calculation of values is realized, where the value of welding current/voltage and current/voltage in the inductor of external electromagnetic action is selected by the researcher. This allows increasing the efficiency of research works with a minimum number of underwater experiments. Using the obtained parameters of the external electromagnetic field, underwater deposits were performed on a plate of a low-alloy steel 09G2S using PPS-AN1 flux-cored wire. The studies showed that the use of external electromagnetic action facilitates a refinement of the grain structure of the deposited metal and reduction in the share of nonmetallic inclusions at their noticeable dispersion. In addition, in the metal of the heat-aftected-zone, the parameters of a package structure of bainite decrease and a more uniform level of microhardness during refinement of the substructure is observed. The external electromagnetic field significantly affects the dislocation structure of the metal, contributes to its uniform and gradient-free distribution, which causes a uniform level of dislocation strengthening in the local volumes of the structure and a decrease in the level of local inner stresses. 11 Ref., 7 Figures.
