Effect of underwater local cavity welding method conditions on diffusible hydrogen content in deposited metal

One of the methods with great potential for applications in underwater repairs is local cavity welding. In local cavity method, cooling conditions and diffusible hydrogen amount in weld metal are nearly the same as those existed during welding in the air. This paper presents the results of literature survey and preliminary tests of the effect of local cavity welding conditions on diffusible hydrogen amount in a deposited metal. A Plackett–Burman design was applied to screen seven parameters: thickness of elastic cover, stick-out of electrode wire, welding current, voltage, travel speed of welding, salinity of water, and flow rate of shielding gas.
