Abstract
A model for calculating the temperature field in submerged arc welding is presented. The algorithm is based on the method of elementary balances. Melting of the electrode rod and melting of the parent material followed by solidification of the pool of molten metal are considered. The calculated temperature evolution curves are compared with the results of experiments. The temperature evolutions at characteristic points of a welded joint are shown.
