Description

Assembling, brazing and welding method for all-aluminum heat exchanger and all-aluminum heat exchanger
Technical Field
The invention relates to an assembly brazing welding method of an all-aluminum heat exchanger and the all-aluminum heat exchanger, and belongs to the field of heat exchangers.
Background
The current round tube heat exchanger of the air conditioner is formed by expanding and connecting small-caliber inner threaded copper tubes through aluminum fins.
Because the internal thread copper pipe and the aluminum fins are expanded together, two metals are assembled together through mechanical pressure contact essentially, and the connection affects heat conduction, so that the heat exchange performance of the heat exchanger is affected, and the following conditions exist:
1. copper pipes and aluminum fins are expanded together, so that the cost is too high when the copper and aluminum materials are recycled and decomposed in the later-stage waste air conditioner, the heat exchanger of the air conditioner is difficult to recycle, and unnecessary waste of resources is caused.
2. The air conditioner heat exchanger adopts a smaller-caliber aluminum pipe (for example, the diameter of 5 mm) to reduce the filling amount of the refrigerant, thereby further reducing the carbon emission and realizing green, environment-friendly and economic effects.
3. The small-caliber aluminum pipe has small internal space, and the aluminum and copper materials have large differences in hardness, ductility and other properties, so that the mass production is difficult to accomplish by using the pipe expanding process.
4. The internal thread aluminum pipe has strict requirements on parameters such as tooth height, advance angle, tooth number and the like of the internal thread, and the damage to a thread structure is unavoidable by adopting a pipe expanding process expansion head, so that the heat exchange performance of a heat exchanger is affected, and the energy efficiency of the whole air conditioner is reduced.
5. The aluminum material has larger difference in yield strength, tensile strength and elongation than red copper material, and is easy to tear at the outer side of a bending area by bending by adopting a traditional process, so that the whole service life of the air conditioner is influenced, and the aluminum material is a sign that the air conditioner is difficult to market in the prior all-aluminizing process.
In summary, aluminum is used for replacing copper in the whole air conditioning industry as a necessary trend of industry development, and the whole aluminizing design and production of the heat exchanger are of great importance, but because of the large difference of physical properties such as heat conducting property, material extensibility, strength and the like of copper-aluminum materials, a new subject is provided for the production process of the whole aluminum heat exchanger.

Detailed Description
The invention will be further described with reference to specific embodiments, and advantages and features of the invention will become apparent from the description. These examples are merely exemplary and do not limit the scope of the invention in any way. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes and substitutions of details and forms of the technical solution of the present invention may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, but these changes and substitutions fall within the scope of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 1 to 14, the present invention relates to an assembling brazing welding method of an all-aluminum heat exchanger, comprising the steps of:
(1) According to the requirements of the heat exchanger, preparing aluminum fins, specifically:
(1-1) preparing a finished product internal thread aluminum straight pipe 3 with a brazing layer 1 and two end shrinkage heads 2 on the outer side of the pipe according to the requirements of a corresponding heat exchanger;
(1-2) preparing an all-aluminum elbow 4 according to the requirements of the corresponding heat exchanger;
(1-3) preparing all-aluminum special-shaped elbows 5 according to the requirements of corresponding heat exchangers;
(1-4) preparing aluminum fins 7 with flanges 6 according to the requirements of corresponding heat exchangers;
(2) The inner holes of all aluminum fins are arranged after flanging, specifically: arranging the required number of aluminum fins 7 (the turned edges are arranged in the same direction);
(3) Inserting a straight aluminum pipe with internal threads into an aluminum fin with a turned inner hole, wherein the straight aluminum pipe penetrates through the inner hole of the aluminum fin and is tightly matched with the aluminum fin, and two ends of the straight threads are positioned outside the aluminum fin;
(4) The end parts of two adjacent straight aluminum pipes are connected together through an elbow, and specifically: the upper end of one straight aluminum pipe is connected with the upper end of the last adjacent straight aluminum pipe through an elbow, the lower end of the straight aluminum pipe is connected with the lower end of the next adjacent straight aluminum pipe through an elbow to form a core body 8, and all the elbows are integrally arranged in a bending shape after being connected with all the straight aluminum pipes and are mutually communicated; the traditional process is to fold the internal thread aluminum pipe into a U-shaped pipe, then insert the U-shaped pipe into a fin, and connect the other end of the U-shaped pipe with an elbow, so that the external diameter part of the internal thread U-shaped pipe is easy to be damaged due to overlarge pulling during bending, and in order to ensure that the bending part has enough compression resistance and corrosion resistance, the wall thickness of the internal thread pipe is increased, thereby not only increasing the thermal resistance to influence the heat transmission, but also increasing the cost of materials. The wall thickness of the internal thread aluminum pipe for heat exchange can be similar to copper by adopting a process method for connecting two ends of the internal thread straight pipe, for example, the wall thickness of the bottom wall is 0.20mm, the tooth height is 0.15mm, and meanwhile, in order to increase the pressure resistance and the corrosion resistance of the elbow part, the wall thickness of the pipe wall of the elbow part can be 0.5mm-1.0mm, so that the heat transfer performance, the corrosion resistance and the pressure resistance of the internal thread aluminum pipe are considered, and meanwhile, the problem of material cost is also considered, and multiple purposes are achieved;
(5) Spraying a brazing auxiliary agent on the core body;
(6) And (3) sending the core body sprayed with the brazing additive into a tunnel furnace for heating and cooling, and discharging.
The step (7) is specifically as follows:
(7-1) placing the core body 8 sprayed with the brazing aid on a conveying support 9, and fixing the core body 8;
(7-2) the core-loaded transport support is placed on the endless chain 10 and is fed into the tunnel furnace through the endless chain;
(7-3) in the tunnel furnace, passing through a preheating zone, a high-temperature welding zone, a constant-temperature zone, a nitrogen protection zone and a strong wind cooling zone in sequence, and discharging.
In the tunnel furnace, the temperature of the preheating zone is 200-300 ℃; the temperature of the high-temperature welding area is 590-640 ℃; the temperature of the constant temperature area is 550-600 ℃; the temperature of the nitrogen protection zone is 300-400 ℃; the temperature of the strong wind cooling area is 30-60 ℃.
After the step (6), the method further comprises the steps of online nitrogen high-pressure leakage monitoring and helium vacuum leakage detection on the core body, wherein the pressure of the nitrogen high pressure is 12MP.
In the step (4), the straight aluminum pipes with internal threads are connected through the elbow, so that the wall thickness of the internal thread aluminum pipes for heat exchange is similar to copper, the pressure resistance and the corrosion resistance of the elbow part are increased, and the wall thickness of the pipe wall of the elbow part is 0.5-1.0 mm.
The invention also relates to an all-aluminum heat exchanger, which is prepared by the assembling, brazing and welding method of the all-aluminum heat exchanger.
In the invention, the heat exchange capacity comparison is carried out by adopting a heat exchanger with an internal thread copper pipe and an internal thread aluminum pipe which are both 5mm in diameter, and the experimental data comparison table of the round pipe aluminum fin heat exchanger with the diameter of 5mm and the full aluminum heat exchanger is shown in the table 1.
TABLE 1
For convenience of comparison, the design parameters of the internal thread copper pipe and the internal thread aluminum pipe are the same, namely the number of teeth is 37, the tooth height is 0.15mm, the helix angle is 20 ℃, and the bottom wall thickness is 0.2mm.
The experimental numbers 1 to 5 refer to heat exchanger performance tests performed under simulated different environment temperatures, namely five different inlet temperatures and outlet temperatures of the heat exchanger, and according to comparative analysis of measured data, it can be seen that the whole aluminum heat exchanger produced by adopting the new process has almost the same whole heat exchange capacity as the copper tube aluminum fin heat exchanger under the whole working condition, the main reason is that a brazing process is adopted between the internal thread aluminum tube and the fins, seamless connection is realized, gaps caused by mechanical contact between copper and aluminum are avoided, heat resistance is increased, and meanwhile, under the conditions of the same screw number, the same screw angle and the same tooth height, due to the expansion joint process adopted between the internal thread copper tube and the aluminum fins, the tooth heights are reduced to a certain extent, the puncture effect of refrigerant bubbles in the tube by the tooth tops is weakened, and although the heat conductivity of copper is higher than that of aluminum, the adverse factors are combined together, and the heat transfer effect of the copper tube aluminum fins is reduced.
The foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, and any person skilled in the art, who is within the scope of the present invention, should make equivalent substitutions or modifications according to the technical scheme of the present invention and the inventive concept thereof, and should be covered by the scope of the present invention.
