Braze system and method for reducing strain in a braze joint

A system for joining a pair of structural members having widely differing coefficients of thermal expansion is disclosed. A mechanically "thick" foil is made by dispersing a refractory metal powder, such as molybdenum, niobium, tantalum, or tungsten into a quantity of a liquid, high expansion metal such as copper, silver, or gold, casting an ingot of the mixture, and then cutting sections of the ingot about 1 mm thick to provide the foil member. These foil members are shaped, and assembled between surfaces of structural members for joining, together with a layer of a braze alloy on either side of the foil member capable of wetting both the surfaces of the structural members and the foil. The assembled body is then heated to melt the braze alloy and join the assembled structure. The foil member subsequently absorbs the mechanical strain generated by the differential contraction of the cooling members that results from the difference in the coefficients of thermal expansion of the members.

Modular heat exchanger having a brazed core and method for forming

An improved modular heat exchanger suitable for automotive applications, and particularly radiators for heavy duty equipment, and methods for forming the modular heat exchanger. The modular heat exchanger construction incorporates a brazed core assembly composed of flat-type cooling tubes and sinusoidal centers. The ability to use a brazed core assembly within a modular heat exchanger construction promotes enhanced heat transfer efficiencies associated with the use of flat tubes and sinusoidal centers, as compared to mechanically-joined round tubes and fins. The required positional tolerances of the tubes for mating with the remainder of the heat exchanger are maintained within the brazed core assembly by eliminating core shrinkage attributable to the use of clad aluminum alloy components to construct the core assembly. In two embodiments, core shrinkage is physical suppressed through the use of an expandable brazing fixture or the inclusion of sub-headers in the brazed core assembly. In a third embodiment, a clad slurry containing a braze alloy is deposited prior to brazing on a core assembly composed of unclad tubes and centers.

Method for brazing ceramic-containing bodies, and articles made thereby

Ceramic-containing bodies can be bonded to other ceramic-containing bodies, or to metals or metal-containing bodies, by way of an aluminum-silicon brazing alloy. Such alloys feature high thermal conductivity and a melting range intermediate to Cu—Sil and Au—Si. By metallizing the surface of an aluminum- or silicon-containing ceramic body, for example, with silicon or aluminum, the formation of deleterious intermetallic phases at the brazing interface is avoided. This technique is particularly useful for joining reaction-bonded silicon carbide (RBSC) composite bodies, and particularly such composite bodies that contain appreciable amounts of aluminum as a metallurgical modification of the residual silicon phase. Interestingly, when the RBSC body contains minor amounts of the aluminum alloying constituent, or none, the metallization layer is not required. The resulting bonded structures have utility as mirrors, as packaging for electronics, and in semiconductor lithography equipment, e.g., as electrostatic chucks for supporting a silicon wafer during the lithography process.
