Abstract
Purpose
Optimization of response parameter is essential in any process .The purpose of this paper is to focus at achieving the optimized parameter for submerged arc welding to furnish the quality welds at direct current electrode positive (DCEP) polarity and direct current electrode negative (DCEN) polarity.
Design/methodology/approach
This paper achieves the parameter after extensive trial runs and finally parameters are optimized to acquire the cost effective and quality welds in submerged arc welding using the response surface methodology.
Findings
Apart from effect of parameters on weld bead geometry has been identified but optimized parameters has also been achieved for submerged arc welding process for DCEP and DCEN polarities.
Practical implications
As this study is related to practical work it may be useful for any relevant application.
Social implications
The process parameters used in this experimental work will be basis for job work/industry for submerged arc welding.
Originality/value
This paper identifies the effect of polarity in submerged arc welding.
