Thermal stress is a very common phenomenon that occurs at the welded joint. Determination of the same at the joint is however difficult due to inhomogeneity of the weld joint metals and spreading of heat to the surroundings from the Heat Affected Zone (HAZ). Thermal stress induced at the welded joint changes the microstructure of grains which affects the mechanical properties of the welded material. Due to this, cracks may appear in the joint leading to failure of the weld. In the present study, three-dimensional model of two types of welded joint, i.e., Tee Joint and lap joint of two plates having dimensions 100 mm X 75 mm X 5 mm are prepared using ANSYS Workbench 2020 R2. Hex dominant meshing is chosen in order to have clear picture of the spread of temperature over the entire region. The change of Residual stress with variation of welding current and keeping welding voltage constant is also observed for weld joint made of Aluminium Alloy. In this study, conduct steady-state thermal analysis and structural analysis on an aluminium alloy 6063 to assess von Mises stress, von Mises strain, and deformation distribution induced by heating. Evaluate various welding joints to identify the most effective technique.
