Abstract

The C-weld of LPG Cylinders of 33.3 liters water capacity filled with gas at a vapor pressure of 16.9 atm at 65° C is considered in this paper Submerged Arc Welding (SWA) is the process normally adopted. The parameters considered are base metal, electrode/flux combination, current, and voltage, post weld heat treatment, etc. Optimum conditions for the process are given, but they may slightly vary from the welding machine to the welding machine.
