Resistance spot welding (RSW) has rarely been applied to the fields requiring high welding quality, as it is limited by the
instability of welding quality and quality monitoring system. Inversion imaging of nugget is a new developing method of
monitoring welding quality at this background. Before the inversion image, this paper does some researches on the
electromagnetic forward problem by establishing the forward model and simulating its electromagnetic field. In order to
verify the reliability of this model, this paper takes the magnetic field signals as example to carry out the spot welding
experiments. By comparison, the data illustrates that this electromagnetic model is reliable within a certain distance
range. Besides these, this paper also does some researches on the different patterns of Hall sensor array, in order to find
the array pattern with smaller errors to carry out inversion imaging.
