| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Heat input into the workpiece during friction stir welding was experimentally measured by calorimetry, and then an empirical equation consisting of input variables to calculate the heat input was established. Moreover, effect of heat input on weld quality was systematically examined. The measured heat input was higher in Al alloys with the larger thermal conductivity. The input variable exhibiting the largest contribution to heat input was travel speed among the variables used in this study. Besides the shoulder diameter, the probe dimension highly affected the heat input. Grain size of the stir zone was well correlated with the normalized heat input, which was product of heat input and rotational speed, and tensile strength and fracture location of 6063 Al weld was associated with the heat input.
