Results show that the welding speed range for achieving a groove-free joint is enlarged with increasing the rotating speed. The tunnel size decreases with decreasing the welding speed under the same rotating speed. Excessive or insufficient shoulder plunge depth will cause defective joints. At a relatively low rotating speed and high welding speed, the tool having a larger shoulder diameter has a larger range of processing parameters to obtain a groove-free joint. Moreover, the tensile fracture behaviors of the defective and defect-free samples are different.展开更多

This paper made three kinds of varying severity artificial defect models of cable joints in 10 kV XLPE cable. Oscillating voltage is applied to the model, by use of pulse current method to detect partial discharge signals. In order to study the statistical characteristics of partial discharge of cable joint under the oscillating voltage, three-dimensional statistical map has been made. The results show that for the same kind of defects, with the increases of the defect severity, the discharge interval extended, the magnitude and the number of partial discharge increase, for different kinds of defects, obvious differences exist among the maps, this may established a foundation for the further study of the partial discharge pattern recognition of XLPE cable under oscillating voltage.展开更多

The defects, such as electrode sticking, notch, and excessive expulsions, were observed in the joints. No desirable joints were achieved with the consideration of weld geometries and joint performances. From the cross-sectional morphology, the joint evolution during the RMW of Pt alloy and 316 LVM SS wires was developed, which involved cold collapse and heat promoted set-down of Pt alloy wire, unbalanced heating at interface, molten phase squeezed out, and defect formation. Finally, the defect formation was also discussed.展开更多
