The cutting quality of abrasive water jet cutting of aluminum alloy(Al-5083) for shipbuilding is affected by the surface roughness, cutting pressure, cutting speed, and the distance between nozzle and material. The cross-section of water jet cutting is formed a V-shape as the cutting speed increase. The upper width(kerf width) is wide and the lower surface is narrow. The width of cutting cross-sections are effected in the order of cutting speed, cutting pressure, and distance between nozzle and material. From the experimental results, to improve of cutting quality of abrasive water jet cutting of aluminum alloy(Al-5083) for shipbuilding, the optimal cutting conditions to improve the surface roughness and kef width are proposed and discussed.

선박 구조재료 FRP 재료의 대체 재료로 빠른 선속과 선적량 증가는 물론 재활용이 용이한 Al 선박으로 전환되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 인장실험을 통해 레저선박에 사용되는 5456-H116 합금에 대한 최적의 마찰교반용접 조건에서 프루브 직경의 효과를 기술하였다. 마찰교반용접에서 이송속도, 회전속도를 변수로 5 mm의 프루브 직경을 사용하여, 이송속도가 61 mm/min의 조건에서 가장 우수한 결과를 나타냈다. 프루브 직경 6 mm, 회전속도 170-210 rpm, 이송속도 15 mm/min 에서는 낮은 회전속도로 인하여 불충분한 용접열이 발생하여 거친 표면과 기공이 형성 되었다. 회전속도 500-800 rpm인 경우, 용접부에 칩이 관찰되었으며, 기공은 생기지 않았고, 용접표면은 우수하였으나 1100-2500 rpm에서는 지나친 용접열의 발생으로 많은 칩이 발생하였다. 열에 의한 영향은 용접 배면에서 관찰되었다. 이송속도가 15 mm/min에서 회전속도의 증가하게 되면 마찰이 증가함에 따라 용접열이 발생한다. 기계적 특성은 용접 입열량이 증가할수록 재질의 연화가 가속화되어 저하하였다.

Al-brass is usually used as the tube material of vessel's heat exchanger for seawater cooling system because it has high thermal conductivity and good mechanical properties and high corrosion resistance due to cuprous oxide (Cu20) layer against seawater. However, Al-brass tubes of heat exchanger for vessel at the actual environment is reported that local corrosion such as stress corrosion cracking occurred by synergism effect between mechanical factor and corrosion environment In this paper, the effect of corrosion environment on the stress corrosion cracking of Al-brass in various NH4OH of 3.5% NaCl solution, under flow by constant displacement tester. Based on the test results, the behavior of polarization, stress corrosion crack propagation and dezincification phenomenon of Al-brass are investigated. The main results are as follows：(1) Increasing range of potential from open circuit potential to repassivation gets lower, as the contain rate of NH4OH gets higher. (2) As contain rate of NH4OH gets higher, SCC of Al-brass is become activation but the protection film(Cu20) of Al-brass is created in 3.5% NaCl solution. (3) According as content of NH4OH increases in 3.5% NaCl solution, the dezincifiction area is spread. It is concluded that dezincification occurred by localized preferential anodic dissolution at stress focusing region.
