Abstract
This research investigates the inherent radial non-uniformity within the rotary friction welding process, particularly concerning microstructure attributes like grain size, grain boundaries, misorientation angles, and interlayer presence along the radial axis. SS321-AA2219 rotary friction welding was carried out with and without an AA6061 interlayer. The numerical thermal model suggests increase in temperatures from the center to the periphery, due to non-uniform heat generation. Also, dissimilar material across the interface resulted in an asymmetric temperature profile along axial direction. Plastic deformation on the Aluminum side suggests dynamic recrystallization and grain refinement, whereas pronounced low-angle grain boundary (LAGB) formation near the SS side interface validates dynamic recovery. A radial non-uniformity in microstructure is observed, with metrics such as average grain size, LAGB fraction, and misorientation showing an increase from the center towards the periphery. The insertion of an interlayer alters process dynamics, manifesting in reduced temperatures and heightened forces, resulting in a more consolidated joint by enhancing the strength by 31 %. Interdiffusion of elements across the interface formed Fe-Al intermetallic compounds (IMC) confirmed with X ray diffraction. Fractography analysis elucidates the presence of rubbing marks and facet surfaces in interlayer-less joints, while joints with interlayer display sticking and dimples.
