Calculate Argon gas consumption in ss 304 welding (6mm Thick Shell for pressure vessels
Calculate Argon gas consumption in ss 304 welding (6mm Thick Shell for pressure vessels
(OP)
Hi all,
I have to estimate the argon gas consumption for a pressure vessel of ss304L having a dia of 1m and height 1.98m. Total weld length will be almost 9 m (6mm Thick) What will be the argon gas consumption during the welding.? (Cylinder Wise) (Excluding purging)
Please help

argon flow is measured in cu f/h or litres/minute, value should be around 15-20 cf/h or 7-10 l/min (I'm thinking TIG or GTAW here).
time x argon flow = total volume of Ar consumed.
