Abstract

Friction Stir Welding (FSW) has become widely used in various applications due to its ability to join both similar and dissimilar materials using a solid-state welding process. In contrast, arc welding requires the melting of materials, making it difficult to weld low-melting-point materials. The heat generated during welding is a common occurrence, with friction being the primary source of heat in FSW. As the stirring zone heats up and softens, plastic deformation occurs between the materials, making this area of the process a crucial focus for further study. In this paper, we aim to investigate the thermo-mechanical effects of temperature rise and measure the stirring zone's temperature to gain a better understanding of FSW. In this paper the stir zone temperature is predicted by the MATLAB PDE Modeler.The study gives the information about the temperature distribution within the stir zone. The maximum temperature is always less than the melting point and the maximum temperature predictedas 5090C within he stir zone and the surface temperature as 1720C.
