There are a number of methods of joining metal articles together, depending on the type of metal and the strength of the joint which is required. Soldering gives a satisfactory joint for light articles of steel, copper or brass, but the strength of a soldered joint is rather less than a joint which is brazed, riveted or welded. These methods of joining metal are normally adopted for strong permanent joints.
The simplest method of welding two pieces of metal together is known as pressure welding. The ends of metal are heated to a white heat—for iron, the welding temperature should be about 1 , 300℃—in a flame. At this temperature the metal becomes plastic. The ends are then pressed or hammered together, and the joint is smoothed off. Care must be taken to ensure that the surfaces are thoroughly clean first, for dirt will weaken the weld. Moreover, the heating of iron or steel to a high temperature causes oxidation, and a film of oxide is formed on the heated surfaces. For this reason, a flux is applied to the heated metal. At welding heat, the flux melts, and the oxide particles are dissolved in it together with any other impurities which may be present. The metal surfaces are pressed together, and the flux is squeezed out from the centre of the weld. A number of different types of weld may be used, but for fairly thick bars of metal, a vee-shaped weld should be employed. It is rather stronger than the ordinary butt weld.
The heat for fusion welding is generated in several ways, depending on the sort of metal which is being welded and on its shape. An extremely hot flame can be produced from an oxyacetylene torch. For certain welds an electric arc is used. In this method, an electric current is passed across two electrodes, and the metal surfaces are places between them. The electrodes are sometimes made of carbon, but more frequently they are metallic. The work itself constitutes one of them and the other is an insulated filler rod. An arc is struck between the two, and the heat which is generated melts the metal at. the weld. A different method is usually employed for welding sheets or plates of metal together. This is known as spot welding. Two sheets or plates are placed together with a slight overlap, and a current is passed between the electrodes. At welding temperature, a strong pressure is applied to the metal sheets. The oxide film, and any impurities which are trapped between the sheets, are squeezed out, and the weld is made.
The word "flux" in Paragraph 2 means______.
选项
A、a situation in which things are changing a lot
B、flowing out
C、substance mixed with metal to promote fusion
D、continuous succession of changes
答案
C
解析
语义题。根据上下文中的“For this reason,a flux is applied to the heated metal.At welding heat,the flux melts,and the oxide panicles…and the flux is squeezedout from the centre of the weld.”可知,flux有助于焊接表面氧化物的熔解,可以推测出该物质可加速金属的融化和熔合,所以[C]是正确答案。
