An important goal in a number of optimization studies is a high-quality weld joint. Thermal analysis of AISI 1020 low carbon steel plate agglutinated by gas tungsten arc welding technique was carried out using S 2021 version. With SOLIDWORKS Premium, the simulation was run. The simulation was performed using the Thermal Simulation programme with 20 weld runs. With the findings of the initial study serving as a sensor, a design study was conducted. A total of 15 runs were completed, and the weld dilution and thermal conductivity responses were available. A range of welding temperatures including 3397 to 3688 °C were experimentally applied in the joining process of AISI 1020 low carbon steel plate of 10 mm thickness, and a strain gauge indicator was used to measure the thermal stresses induced in the steel plate. However, minimum and maximum weld dilution values of 73.1 and 46.8% were obtained with FEM at an input of arc heat of 66.4 and 37.2 J/mm, while the minimum and maximum weld dilution values of 71.55 and 45.5% were computed using experimental approach at the same heat input. On the other hand, maximum and minimum weld dilution of 71.55 and 44.5% were computed from experimental process at minimum and maximum welding current of 199.77 and 250.23 A, while 73.1 and 46.8% were obtained for the maximum and minimum weld dilution through FEM procedure at the same welding input variables. Hence, gas tungsten arc welding input parameters should be properly selected and controlled during welding operation, in order to minimize thermal effects and welding flaws such as high dilution rate.
