Preheat the workpiece to be welded to an appropriate temperature to reduce stress concentration and crack tendency caused by excessive temperature difference during welding.

[0022] Place the workpiece to be welded in the drainage hood of the welding drainage device, fill the drainage hood with pressurized shielding gas, until the water on the surface of the workpiece to be welded is flushed away, and a local dry environment is formed in the drainage hood, ready for arc welding.

Claims

1. A welding method in a high humidity environment, characterized in that: The steps include: Step 1: Place the workpiece to be welded in the drainage hood of the welding drainage device, and fill the drainage hood with pressurized protective gas until the water on the surface of the workpiece to be welded is flushed away and a local dry environment is formed in the drainage hood, so as to prepare for arc welding; Step 2: a humidity sensor is arranged in the drainage hood to detect the ambient humidity in the drainage hood. When the ambient humidity is less than 80%, carbon dioxide gas is used as the shielding gas for welding.
