Abstract: In this paper the processes of melting and transfer of an electrode metal to the molten pool, hydrody- namics of molten pool in controlled pulsed arc welding in carbon dioxide have been investigated.The process of pulsed arc welding with systematic short - circuits of the arc gap is realized by adaptive algo- rithms of pulsed control over main energetic parameters of welding - arc current and voltage,arc heated efficiency,peak,short - circuiting current, which provide the dosage of energy for energy for melting and transfer of every for of an electrode metal, the control over fluidity of the weld pool. Physica and mathematical models describing such processes in CO2, origind software hare been developed.The re- sults of physical simulation and mathemaical modelling permit to determine the influence of energetic parameters of the process on the condition of the "power source-electrode-arc-molten pool" electrodynamic system at each moment of time.

Key words: pulse, arc welding, melting of electrode, mass transfer
