Vertical Position - When the axis of the weld is between 15°– 80° and the face rotation is between 80°– 280° for groove welds or 125°– 235° for fillet welds, the weld position is considered to be in the vertical position. When the axis angle is increased to between 80°– 90°, the face rotation can be any angle from 0°– 360° for both groove and fillet welds.
Voltage - The pressure or force that pushes the electrons through a conductor. Voltage does not flow, but causes amperage or current to flow. Voltage is sometimes termed electro-motive force (EMF) or difference in potential.
Vapor Pressure – The pressure characteristic at any given temperature of a vapor in equilibrium with its liquid or solid form.
