Influence of Heat Input on the Content of Delta Ferrite in the Structure of 304L Stainless Steel GTA Welded JointsDOI: 10.2478/v10228-011-0002-3 Keywords: GTA welding, Pulse Welding, Heat Input, Delta Ferrite Content, 304L Stainless Steel Abstract: Welding of austenitic stainless steel has its specific issues, even when the weldability is considered good. The main problems of austenitic stainless steel welding are connected with its metallurgical weldability. The amount of the components presented in the structure of stainless steel welded joint affect its properties, therefore the understanding of the behavior of stainless steel during its welding is important for successful processing and allows the fabricators the possibility to manage the resulting issues. This paper is focused on the influence of heat input on the structural changes in GTA welded joints of austenitic stainless steel designated: ASTM SA TP 304L.
