Joining of dissimilar material has become highly popular research subject in the automobile industry due to the reduced weight and thereby increasing the fuel efficiency. Infrared thermography can be used as a natural tool to measure the temperature near the welding region and correlate the distribution of temperature to the weld quality. In the present work the quality of the dissimilar welded sample is identified using the temperature distribution in the vicinity of the weld pool region. A numerical model for CMT continues welding process has been modeled and simulated for the first time and compared with the experimental measurement.
In this study, the feasibility of using non-contact Infrared thermography as a potential tool to monitor the CMT welding process is explored. The presence of internal defects such as porosity, lack of filler material deposition and formation of improper weld bead produce perturbations in the surface temperature which can be identified using an Infrared thermography technique. We present recent results obtained from online monitoring of the the dissimilar joining using CMT weld brazing of Aluminum and Steel using a transmission mode measurement approach. The effect of loss of zinc coating on the weldability of the cold metal transfer joining of aluminum to galvanised steel was investigated. A correlation between measured online thermal indications with the weld anomalies is successfully attempted and the results are compared with the conventional post-weld NDT inspection methods.
Online (passive) thermographic inspection of overlap joints of aluminium and zinc coated steel sheets made by cold metal Transfer weld brazing process was explored. Different experimental Trials were conducted for demonstrating the feasibility of thermographic inspection to detect the porosities, improper weld bead and to differentiate the pre weld temperature. The whole process was monitored using infrared cameras in different wavelength region.
Image analysis algorithms were developed to reconstruct the thermal images that contain the signatures of the weld defects and to extract the pre weld temperature and ist evolution with distance from the centre of the weld torch. Post-weld radiography lends strong Support to the observations.
Currently research in chemical manufacturing moves towards flexible plug-and-play approaches focusing on modular plants, capable of producing small scales on-demand with short down-times between individual cam-paigns. This approach allows for efficient use of hardware, a faster optimization of the process conditions, and thus, an accelerated introduction of new products to the market. Driven mostly by the search for chemical syntheses under biocompatible conditions, so-called “click” chemistry rapidly became a growing field of research. The re-sulting simple one-pot reactions are so far only scarcely accompanied by an adequate optimization via compara-bly straightforward and robust analysis techniques. Here we report on a fast and reliable calibration-free online high field NMR monitoring approach for technical mixtures. It combines a versatile fluidic system, continuous-flow measurement with a time interval of 20 s per spectrum, and a robust, automated algo-rithm to interpret the ob-tained data. All spectra were acquired using a 500 MHz NMR spectrometer (Varian) with a dual band flow probe having a 1/16 inch polymer tubing working as a flow cell. Single scan 1H spectra were recorded with an acquisition time of 5 s, relaxation delay of 15 s.

Online NMR spectroscopy is an excellent tool to study complex reacting multicomponent mixtures and gain process insight and understanding. For online studies under process conditions, flow NMR probes can be used in a wide range of temperature and pressure. This paper compiles the most important aspects towards quantitative process NMR spectroscopy in complex multicomponent mixtures and provides examples. After NMR spectroscopy is introduced as an online method and for technical samples without sample preparation in deuterated solvents, influences of the residence time distribution, pre-magnetization, and cell design are discussed. NMR acquisition and processing parameters as well as data preparation methods are presented and the most practical data analysis strategies are introduced.
