Comparative evaluation of grain refinement in AISI 430 FSS welds by elemental metal powder addition and cryogenic cooling

Two strategies for grain refinement in the Ferritic Stainless Steel (FSS) welds involving cryogenic cooling and elemental metal powder addition into the melt pool are investigated and their performances are evaluated. Full-penetration-bead single pass weld tracks were produced on AISI 430 FSS plate...
