Simulation results indicate that the flow pattern of thetracer particles around the pin is spiral movement. There are very different flow patterns at the upper and lower parts of the weld. Thematerial on the upper surface has the spiral downward movement that is affected by the shoulder and the lower material has the spiralupward movement that is affected by the pin. The velocity of the material flow on the periphery of the stirring pin is higher than thatat the bottom of the stirring pin.
