摘要

This paper discusses temperature history of both the core and the associated manifold-shell surfaces exposed to a transient brazing cycle during the controlled atmosphere brazing process (CAB). A complex compact heat exchanger structure consisting of a sequence of extruded tubes with micro channels and multilouver fins, and framed with the manifold-shell assembles, was exposed to a ramp-up/dwell/rapid-quench radiation-convection heating-cooling materials processing sequence. A test sample was assembled using actual heat exchanger design elements (i.e., extruded tubes, multilouver fins, and manifold-shells.) Brazing was accomplished at the peak brazing temperature of 878 K in an experimental facility equipped with a transparent hot zone. The experimental regime mimicked a state-of-the-art manufacturing process utilized for the manufacturing of aluminum compact heat exchangers. Fin and tube surface temperatures were monitored continuously during both radiation heating and convective cooling of a sample. Heating was conducted in 99.999 % nitrogen, with the background oxygen level at the peak lower than 50 ppm, and the dew point temperature below -40℃. Numerical simulations of the model with an identical overall geometric structure as the one used in the experiments were performed using a novel Equivalent Zonal (EZ) approach. A solution of an inverse heat transfer problem utilizing a time-dependent finite-volume CFD code was obtained. The model consisted of a sequence of distinct equivalent heat transferring zones representing the fins and tubes, and adjacent zones representing manifold shells, having geometrical features identical to the actual design. Five tube zones, four alternating fin zones, and two manifold zones were included in the model. The comparison between experimental temperature data and numerical simulation performed under the same conditions indicates a very good agreement throughout the ramp-up brazing cycle, and in particular at the peak brazing temperature. The suggested EZ-approach to the modeling provides temperature-time data sensitive enough to indicate critical locations in the joint zones between the tubes and manifolds. These zones are prone to poor brazing conditions due to temperature non-uniformities, thus leading to manufacturing imperfections.
