Best Answer

In the case of arc welding , moisture is superheated to steam , then further into Hydrogen and oxygen gasses, this usually produces a porous inferior weld, as the gasses are infused into the molten metal , and expand to form small voids , or pockets in the final cooled weld.

What is an electric arc diameter as function of the current?

The electric arc diameter is directly proportional to the square root of the current passing through it. This relationship is described by the formula D = k√I, where D is the arc diameter, I is the current, and k is a constant factor. Increasing the current will result in a larger arc diameter, while decreasing the current will lead to a smaller arc diameter.
