AB - This paper deals with the heat input and maximum temperature developed during  friction stir welding with different parameters. Aluminium alloy (AA 6061-T6)  has been used for experimental and numerical analysis. Experimental analysis  is based on temperature measurements by using infrared camera, whereas  numerical analysis was based on empirical expressions and finite element  method. Different types of defects have been observed in respect to different  levels of heat input.
