Definitions
- the invention relates to a hollow chamber profile made of metal, in particular for heat exchangers, consisting of an extruded base profile, which has the shape of a round tube or a coaxial tube or is equipped with two parallel broad sides and two narrow sides, wherein at least one channel in the interior of the base profile extends in the longitudinal direction.
- This design of a hollow chamber profile for heat exchangers is from the German utility model DE 94 06 559 U1 known.
- the deformation of the channels forming webs during extrusion is shown in a simple manner.
- the profiling of the webs is not subsequently, but generated during extrusion.
- more extruded material is offered for that web which is to be profiled wavy, as for another web, which is not to be profiled wavy.
- This increased supply of the compressive material leads to a compression of the material and thus to an arbitrary deformation of the web to be pressed.
- an increase in the surface is achieved in a simple manner, resulting in improved heat transfer.
- the arbitrary deformation of the webs causes a channel which is bounded by two deformed webs to be narrowed or widened in the longitudinal direction of the profile.
- Such a change in the flow cross-section leads to pressure losses and thus to a lower heat exchange performance.
- a cooler tube which has at regular intervals annular waves which extend radially outward and were generated by axial compression of the previously smooth cylindrical tube. Between the waves are smooth cylindrical pipe sections. Such a tube has due to its enlarged outer surface a relation to the smooth tube greater heat transfer. However, since the free flow cross-section at the points of the tube, where an annular shaft is provided, is increased, occur in the pipe flowing through the medium pressure losses and thus heat exchange losses. Furthermore, this tube has the disadvantage that the tube is influenced by the subsequently made axial upsetting in its strength.
- the object of the invention is to provide hollow chamber profiles, in particular for heat exchangers, which have improved heat transfer properties compared to conventional extruded profiles and can be produced in a simple manner.
- the hollow chamber profile according to the invention made of metal, in particular for a heat exchanger is constructed from a base profile, which preferably consists of a corrosion-resistant, brazeable aluminum alloy, such as, for example, a 1xxx, 3xxx or 6xxx alloy.
- the extruded base profile has a round tube shape or a Koaxialrohrform or a flat tube shape with two parallel broad sides and two connecting these broad sides narrow sides.
- the interior of the basic profile is formed by at least one channel in the longitudinal direction. Perpendicular to the longitudinal orientation of the base profile are deformed opposite sides, with left-facing profiles and right-handed profiling alternate. These profiles are coordinated so that the width of the basic profile does not change over the entire longitudinal extent.
- such deformations are provided in a flat-tube profile both on the narrow sides and on the webs extending from broad side to broad side of the basic profile and forming a plurality of channels.
- the profiles of the narrow sides and the webs are uniform. This is achieved by making all deformations simultaneously and in the same way. If, for example, a wavy deformation is provided in the longitudinal extent of the base profile, with the left and right-hand profilings alternating transversely to the longitudinal extent, the wave crests of the wavy course of each web and the two narrow sides engage in the corresponding wave troughs of the wave-shaped deformation of the respectively adjacent webs or narrow sides one.
- a tube profile in particular a coaxial tube with several channels in the longitudinal direction, such deformations are provided both on the outer sides and on the webs forming the channels.
- the profiles of the outer sides and the webs are uniformly formed here as well.
- the amplitudes of the wave-shaped course of the deformed sides and the webs in the entire hollow chamber profile are the same size, as well as can be provided for the wavelengths of the deformation.
- the wavelength or amplitude of such a wavy course of deformation changes, this must apply equally to the adjacent webs as well as to the sides, so that in no case do two adjacent walls approach each other.
- the flow cross section of the channels is not changed by the deformations.
- the deformations represent turbulences for the gas flowing through the profile or the liquid flow, which are comparable to known turbulators which can be used.
- a verwelltes profile can be used both to increase the heat exchange performance of a gas stream and a liquid flow, the effect of the liquid flow, however, is generally lower.
- Advantageous application can find such a hollow chamber profile as a cooler, in particular as a CO 2 gas cooler or as a charge air cooler for motor vehicles.
- the hollow chamber profile according to the invention has over the previously known extruded profiles with parallel webs and undeformed narrow sides on a higher performance, since at the same good heat transfer through the turbulence generated by the deformation of the webs and narrow sides transverse to the gas or liquid flow, in addition a better convection is achieved.
- Such a hollow chamber profile can be produced in a simple manner.
- a hollow profile strand for example a round tube profile strand, a coaxial tube profile strand or a flat tube profile strand with two mutually parallel broad sides and arched or flat narrow sides, is produced by extrusion with at least one channel extending in the interior of the base profile.
- the emerging from the forming zone of the extruder and hot hollow profile strand is defined by an oscillating moving deformation tool vibrated and deformed.
- the deformed Hollow profile strand can then be cut to the desired length of a hollow chamber profile and, if necessary, provided with imprints on the pipe ends. These embossings are used for easy insertion into the headers and a perfect soldering to a heat exchanger.
- the emerging from the forming and hot hollow profile strand is acted upon by a perpendicular to the outlet direction of the profile strand oscillating moving deformation tool.
- a perpendicular to the outlet direction of the profile strand oscillating moving deformation tool is acted upon.
- both the narrow sides of the flat tube profile and the outer sides of the round tube profile and the possibly present webs are deformed.
- the deformations on the sides and on the webs have a wavy course in the longitudinal direction of the base profile.
- the wavelength of such a wave-shaped course is preferably unchanged for a hollow profile strand. This is achieved in that the oscillation frequency of the deformation tool is adapted to the strand exit speed of the hollow profile strand.
- extrusion rates of 15 to 200 m / min, preferably 60 to 150 m / min are used.
- Deformations of the profile strand can be of the order of 1 to 100 mm.
- the deformation of the flat tube profile strand i. the deflection is preferably in the direction of the tube width, so that the broad sides maintain their parallel course and are not deformed. This has the advantage that in the subsequent processing to the heat exchanger easy installation, especially the connection with cooling fins and headers can be done.
- the oscillating movement of the deformation tool generates a deflection force transversely to the outlet direction of the hollow profile strand.
- This deflection can be effected by mechanical pressure and shear forces.
- an electromagnetic deflection of the hollow profile strand is possible.
- a particularly gentle action on the deflection of the hollow profile strand by the deformation tool is achieved by means of a fluid medium.
- a fluid medium here, both air, nitrogen and water can be used.
- a hot hollow profile strand is deformed.
- This can be achieved by arranging the deformation tool in the immediate vicinity of the extrusion die.
- the temperature of the hollow profile strand in the deformation tool should be greater than 250 ° C, preferably more than 400 ° C, to allow a low-deformation deformation. If now the emerging from the extruder hot hollow profile strand is detected and deflected by the oscillating deformation tool, the deflection forces act back into the extrusion die and there influence the flow of material.
- a deformation tool can be arranged for example in a recess in the counter-spar of the extruder.
- the emerging from the extrusion die hollow profile strand is led out of the extruder.
- the high exit temperature of the hollow section strand is used to allow a low deformation deformation.
- the hollow profile strand in the deformation tool has the desired forming temperature greater than 250 ° C.
- the extrusion die itself as a deforming tool moving in an oscillating manner acts.
- the extrusion die or plant and tool components that position the extrusion die in the extrusion press perform an oscillating motion during the extrusion molding process.
- hollow-chamber profiles can be provided with wave-shaped deformations, although, in contrast to the prior art, these are defined wave characteristics that can be produced in a defined manner, ie. around reproducible amplitudes or wavelengths of the corrugations.
- a hollow chamber profile is produced, which over the entire longitudinal extent of the profile has an always constant free flow cross-section and constant wall thicknesses. It is achieved an increase in the heat exchange surface without high pressure losses can occur in the profile. At the same time, the laminar flow is disturbed by the swellings. These turbulences advantageously increase the heat exchange performance of the profile.
- an inventive hollow chamber profile made of metal is shown.
- This preferably consists of an extruded base profile 10 made of light metal.
- This base profile 10 has at least one aligned in the longitudinal direction of the base profile 10 channel 11, preferably a plurality of channels 11. These channels 11 are bounded by the wall 12 and by the webs 13.
- the base profile 10 may further have arranged on the inner sides of the wall 12 and pointing in the channels 11, parallel to the webs 13 extending web approaches, which are not shown here.
- the base profile 10 has two parallel broad sides 16, 17, which form a flat top and bottom of the profile. This is advantageous when using the profile as a heat exchanger profile. It allows easy installation and connection with the arranged on the top and bottom of the base section 10 cooling fins.
- An inventive hollow chamber profile can also show the shape of a round tube or a coaxial tube and have one or more channels oriented in the longitudinal direction of the profile.
- the intended to increase the heat exchange performance of the profile Verwellept concern here only the narrow sides 18, 19 and the webs 13.
- the narrow sides 18, 19 are deformed perpendicular to the longitudinal orientation of the base profile, with left-facing profiles 21 and right-hand profiles 22 at the two narrow sides 18, 19 and also at the webs 13 alternate each other.
- the base profile 10 has a width B, which is the same size despite the Verwellept at each point of the longitudinal extent. This is because the two narrow sides 18, 19 are profiled in the same way, ie have the same undulating course.

- the distance A between two adjacent webs 13 is the same size.
- the distance C between the narrow side 18 and the first web 13 'and the distance D between the narrow side 19 and the last web 13 is constant, which means that any cross-section of the base profile 10 according to FIG Fig. 1 the same cross-section as in Fig. 2 shows, ie that the basic profile 10 in the longitudinal direction always has the same free flow cross-section. Accordingly, despite the swelling, there are no high pressure losses in the basic profile 10 according to the invention, since there are no impediments influencing the flow.
- FIGS. 1 and 3 basic profile 10 shown in an advantageous manner, a deformation of the narrow sides 18, 19 and the webs 13, which show a wave-like course in the longitudinal direction, said waves having the same wavelength.
- the profiles 21, 22 of the narrow sides 18, 19 and the webs 13 are in their maximum deflection, ie in their amplitudes match.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Hohlkammerprofil aus Metall, insbesondere für Wärmetauscher, bestehend aus einem stranggepressten Grundprofil, welches die Form eines Rundrohres oder eines Koaxialrohres hat oder mit zwei zueinander parallelen Breitseiten und zwei Schmalseiten ausgestattet ist, wobei im Innenraum des Grundprofils sich mindestens ein Kanal in Längsrichtung erstreckt.The invention relates to a hollow chamber profile made of metal, in particular for heat exchangers, consisting of an extruded base profile, which has the shape of a round tube or a coaxial tube or is equipped with two parallel broad sides and two narrow sides, wherein at least one channel in the interior of the base profile extends in the longitudinal direction.
Diese Gestaltung eines Hohlkammerprofils für Wärmetauscher ist aus dem deutschen Gebrauchsmuster
Aus der
Alternativ zu stranggepressten Aluminiumrohren bzw. Mehrkammerhohlprofilen werden aus Aluminiumblech rollgeformte Profile eingesetzt. Diese werden häufig durch Hochfrequenzschweißen bzw. durch geeignete Verformung und ein nachfolgendes Verlöten verschlossen. Durch den Einsatz von Turbulatoren können die Wäremübertragungseigenschaften verbessert werden. Nachteil dieses Verfahrens ist der hohe Aufwand für die Herstellung und Montage der Turbulatoren. Zudem sind die gelöteten bzw. geschweißten Rohrnähte häufige Versagungsursache bei mechanischer bzw. bei korrosiver Beanspruchung. Durch den Einsatz stranggepresster Aluminiumprofile kann die Aufgabe nur teilweise gelöst werden. Zwar sind die Rohrnähte erheblich stabiler, jedoch ist die Eignung zur Wärmeübertragung durch die nur in Strangpressrichtung ausgeformten Rohrwände und Rohrstege beschränkt. Speziell bei gasförmigen Medien, wie z. B. Luft bei Ladeluftkühlern oder CO2 bzw. gasförmiges Kältemittel bei Klimawärmetauschern, kann Wärme nicht optimal übertragen werden.As an alternative to extruded aluminum tubes or multi-chamber hollow profiles, aluminum profiles are used for roll-formed profiles. These are often closed by high-frequency welding or by suitable deformation and subsequent soldering. By using turbulators, the heat transfer properties can be improved. Disadvantage of this method is the high cost of manufacturing and mounting the turbulators. In addition, the soldered or welded pipe seams are frequent sources of failure in the case of mechanical or corrosive stress. By using extruded aluminum profiles, the task can only be partially solved. Although the pipe seams are considerably more stable, however, the suitability for heat transfer is limited by the only formed in the extrusion direction tube walls and pipe webs. Especially with gaseous media, such as. B. air in charge air coolers or CO 2 or gaseous refrigerant in Klimaärmetauschern, heat can not be optimally transmitted.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, Hohlkammerprofile, insbesondere für Wärmetauscher, zur Verfügung zu stellen, die verbesserte Wärmeübertragungseigenschaften gegenüber herkömmlichen stranggepressten Profilen aufweisen und auf einfache Weise herstellbar sind.The object of the invention is to provide hollow chamber profiles, in particular for heat exchangers, which have improved heat transfer properties compared to conventional extruded profiles and can be produced in a simple manner.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfingdungsgemäß durch ein Hohlkammerprofil aus Metall mit den in Anspruch 1 oder 5 aufgeführten Merkmalen sowie einem Verfahren gemäß Anspruch 8 erfüllt.This object is achieved erfingdungsgemäß by a hollow chamber profile made of metal with the features listed in claim 1 or 5 and a method according to claim 8.
Das erfindungsgemäße Hohlkammerprofil aus Metall, insbesondere für einen Wärmetauscher, ist aus einem Grundprofil aufgebaut, welches bevorzugt aus einer korrosionsbeständigen, hartlötbaren Aluminiumlegierung besteht, wie beispielsweise aus einer 1xxx-, 3xxx- oder 6xxx-Legierung. Das stranggepresste Grundprofil besitzt eine Rundrohrform oder eine Koaxialrohrform oder eine Flachrohrform mit zwei zueinander parallele Breitseiten und zwei diese Breitseiten verbindende Schmalseiten. Der Innenraum des Grundprofils wird durch mindestens einen Kanal in Längsrichtung gebildet. Senkrecht zur Längsausrichtung des Grundprofils sind gegenüberliegenden Seiten verformt, wobei sich linksgerichtete Profilierungen und rechtsgerichtete Profilierungen abwechseln. Diese Profilierungen sind so aufeinander abgestimmt, dass sich die Breite des Grundprofils über die gesamte Längsausdehnung nicht verändert.The hollow chamber profile according to the invention made of metal, in particular for a heat exchanger, is constructed from a base profile, which preferably consists of a corrosion-resistant, brazeable aluminum alloy, such as, for example, a 1xxx, 3xxx or 6xxx alloy. The extruded base profile has a round tube shape or a Koaxialrohrform or a flat tube shape with two parallel broad sides and two connecting these broad sides narrow sides. The interior of the basic profile is formed by at least one channel in the longitudinal direction. Perpendicular to the longitudinal orientation of the base profile are deformed opposite sides, with left-facing profiles and right-handed profiling alternate. These profiles are coordinated so that the width of the basic profile does not change over the entire longitudinal extent.
Nach der Erfindung werden bei einem Flachrohrprofil solche Verformungen sowohl an den Schmalseiten als auch an den von Breitseite zu Breitseite des Grundprofils sich erstreckenden, mehrere Kanäle bildenden Stege vorgesehen. In jedem Fall sind die Profilierungen der Schmalseiten und der Stege gleichförmig ausgebildet. Dies wird dadurch erreicht, dass alle Verformungen gleichzeitig und in gleicher Weise vorgenommen werden. Wird beispielsweise eine wellenförmige Verformung in der Längsausdehnung des Grundprofils vorgesehen, wobei sich quer zur Längsausdehnung die linksgerichteten und rechtsgerichteten Profilierungen abwechseln, greifen die Wellenberge des wellenförmigen Verlaufs eines jeden Steges und der beiden Schmalseiten in die entsprechenden Wellentäler der wellenförmigen Verformung der jeweils benachbarten Stege oder Schmalseiten ein.According to the invention, such deformations are provided in a flat-tube profile both on the narrow sides and on the webs extending from broad side to broad side of the basic profile and forming a plurality of channels. In any case, the profiles of the narrow sides and the webs are uniform. This is achieved by making all deformations simultaneously and in the same way. If, for example, a wavy deformation is provided in the longitudinal extent of the base profile, with the left and right-hand profilings alternating transversely to the longitudinal extent, the wave crests of the wavy course of each web and the two narrow sides engage in the corresponding wave troughs of the wave-shaped deformation of the respectively adjacent webs or narrow sides one.
Bei einem Rohrprofil, insbesondere einem Koaxialrohr mit mehreren Kanälen in Längsrichtung, werden solche Verformungen sowohl an den Außenseiten als auch an den die Kanäle bildenden Stege vorgesehen. In jedem Fall sind auch hier die Profilierungen der Außenseiten und der Stege gleichförmig ausgebildet.In a tube profile, in particular a coaxial tube with several channels in the longitudinal direction, such deformations are provided both on the outer sides and on the webs forming the channels. In any case, the profiles of the outer sides and the webs are uniformly formed here as well.
Es kann in bevorzugter Weise dafür gesorgt werden, dass die Amplituden des wellenförmigen Verlaufs der verformten Seiten und der Stege im gesamten Hohlkammerprofil gleich groß sind, ebenso kann dies für die Wellenlängen der Verformung vorgesehen werden. Es ist zur Erzielung einer hohen Konvektion bei gleichbleibend gutem Wärmeübergang jedoch nicht notwendig, dass der wellenförmige Verlauf der Verformungen mit unveränderter Wellenlänge und gleich großer Amplitude vorliegt. Ändert sich jedoch Wellenlänge oder Amplitude eines solchen wellenförmigen Verlaufs einer Verformung, so muss dies in gleicher Weise für die benachbarten Stege wie auch für die Seiten zutreffen, damit sich in keinem Fall zwei benachbarte Wandungen einander nähern. Der Strömungsquerschnitt der Kanäle wird durch die Verformungen nicht verändert. Die Verformungen stellen jedoch für das das Profil durchströmende Gas bzw. den Flüssigkeitsstrom Turbulenzen dar, die vergleichbar sind mit bekannten einsetzbaren Turbulatoren. Ein solches verwelltes Profil kann sowohl zur Erhöhung der Wärmeaustauschleistung eines Gasstromes als auch eines Flüssigkeitsstromes eingesetzt werden, wobei die Wirkung beim Flüssigkeitsstrom jedoch im allgemeinen geringer ist. Vorteilhafte Anwendung kann ein solches Hohlkammerprofil als Kühler, insbesondere als CO2-Gaskühler oder als Ladeluftkühler für Kraftfahrzeuge, finden.It can be ensured in a preferred manner that the amplitudes of the wave-shaped course of the deformed sides and the webs in the entire hollow chamber profile are the same size, as well as can be provided for the wavelengths of the deformation. However, it is not necessary to achieve a high convection with consistently good heat transfer that the wave-shaped course of the deformations with unchanged wavelength and amplitude is equal. However, if the wavelength or amplitude of such a wavy course of deformation changes, this must apply equally to the adjacent webs as well as to the sides, so that in no case do two adjacent walls approach each other. The flow cross section of the channels is not changed by the deformations. However, the deformations represent turbulences for the gas flowing through the profile or the liquid flow, which are comparable to known turbulators which can be used. Such a verwelltes profile can be used both to increase the heat exchange performance of a gas stream and a liquid flow, the effect of the liquid flow, however, is generally lower. Advantageous application can find such a hollow chamber profile as a cooler, in particular as a CO 2 gas cooler or as a charge air cooler for motor vehicles.
Das erfindungsgemäße Hohlkammerprofil weist gegenüber den vorbekannten stranggepressten Profilen mit parallel verlaufenden Stegen und unverformten Schmalseiten eine höhere Leistung auf, da bei gleich gutem Wärmeübergang durch die Turbulenzen, die mittels der Verformung der Stege und Schmalseiten quer zum Gas- bzw. Flüssigkeitsstrom erzeugt werden, zusätzlich eine bessere Konvektion erzielt wird.The hollow chamber profile according to the invention has over the previously known extruded profiles with parallel webs and undeformed narrow sides on a higher performance, since at the same good heat transfer through the turbulence generated by the deformation of the webs and narrow sides transverse to the gas or liquid flow, in addition a better convection is achieved.
Ein solches Hohlkammerprofil kann auf einfache Weise hergestellt werden. Im ersten Verfahrensschritt wird durch Strangpressen ein Hohlprofilstrang, beispielsweise ein Rundrohrprofilstrang, ein Koaxialrohrprofilstrang oder eine Flachrohrprofilstrang mit zwei zueinander parallelen Breitseiten sowie gewölbten oder ebenen Schmalseiten, mit mindestens einem sich im Innenraum des Grundprofils erstreckender Kanal erzeugt. Der aus der Umformzone der Strangpresse austretende und heiße Hohlprofilstrang wird durch ein sich oszillierend bewegendes Verformungswerkzeug definiert in Schwingung versetzt und verformt. Der verformte Hohlprofilstrang kann dann auf die gewünschte Länge eines Hohlkammerprofils abgelängt und bedarfsweise mit Prägungen an den Rohrenden versehen werden. Diese Prägungen dienen einem einfachen Einschieben in die Sammelrohre und einer einwandfreien Verlötung zu einem Wärmetauscher.Such a hollow chamber profile can be produced in a simple manner. In the first process step, a hollow profile strand, for example a round tube profile strand, a coaxial tube profile strand or a flat tube profile strand with two mutually parallel broad sides and arched or flat narrow sides, is produced by extrusion with at least one channel extending in the interior of the base profile. The emerging from the forming zone of the extruder and hot hollow profile strand is defined by an oscillating moving deformation tool vibrated and deformed. The deformed Hollow profile strand can then be cut to the desired length of a hollow chamber profile and, if necessary, provided with imprints on the pipe ends. These embossings are used for easy insertion into the headers and a perfect soldering to a heat exchanger.
In bevorzugter Weise wird der aus der Umformzone austretende und heiße Hohlprofilstrang durch ein sich senkrecht zur Austrittsrichtung des Profilstrangs oszillierend bewegendes Verformungswerkzeugs beaufschlagt. Dabei werden gleichzeitig sowohl die Schmalseiten des Flachrohrprofils bzw. die Außenseiten des Rundrohrprofiles als auch die eventuell vorhandenen Stege verformt.Preferably, the emerging from the forming and hot hollow profile strand is acted upon by a perpendicular to the outlet direction of the profile strand oscillating moving deformation tool. At the same time both the narrow sides of the flat tube profile and the outer sides of the round tube profile and the possibly present webs are deformed.
In einer besonderen Ausführungsform weisen die Verformungen an den Seiten und an den Stegen einen in Längsrichtung des Grundprofils wellenförmigen Verlauf auf. Die Wellenlänge eines solchen wellenförmigen Verlaufes ist in bevorzugter Weise für einen Hohlprofilstrang unverändert. Dies wird dadurch erreicht, dass die Ozillationsfrequenz des Verformungswerkzeuges an die Strangaustrittsgeschwindigkeit des Hohlprofilsstrangs angepasst wird. Bei der Herstellung von Mehrkammerhohlprofilen werden Strangpressgeschwindigkeiten von 15 bis 200 m/min, vorzugsweise 60 bis 150 m/min verwendet. Die Wellenlängen der wellenförmigen. Verformungen des Profilsstrangs können in der Größenordnung 1 bis 100 mm liegen.In a particular embodiment, the deformations on the sides and on the webs have a wavy course in the longitudinal direction of the base profile. The wavelength of such a wave-shaped course is preferably unchanged for a hollow profile strand. This is achieved in that the oscillation frequency of the deformation tool is adapted to the strand exit speed of the hollow profile strand. In the production of multi-chamber hollow profiles extrusion rates of 15 to 200 m / min, preferably 60 to 150 m / min are used. The wavelengths of the wavy. Deformations of the profile strand can be of the order of 1 to 100 mm.
Die Verformung des Flachrohrprofilstranges, d.h. die Auslenkung erfolgt vorzugsweise in Richtung der Rohrbreite, so dass die Breitseiten ihren parallelen Verlauf beibehalten und nicht verformt werden. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass bei der nachfolgenden Verarbeitung zum Wärmetauscher eine einfache Montage, insbesondere die Verbindung mit Kühllamellen und Sammelrohren, erfolgen kann.The deformation of the flat tube profile strand, i. the deflection is preferably in the direction of the tube width, so that the broad sides maintain their parallel course and are not deformed. This has the advantage that in the subsequent processing to the heat exchanger easy installation, especially the connection with cooling fins and headers can be done.
Es ist jedoch auch möglich, zwei Schwingungsebenen getrennt voneinander zu steuern und somit zirkulare Verwellungen zu erzeugen. dies kann insbesondere bei einem Rundrohrprofil oder einem Koaxialrohrprofil vorteilhaft sein.However, it is also possible to control two oscillation planes separately from each other and thus to produce circular eddies. this may be advantageous in particular in the case of a round tube profile or a coaxial tube profile.
Die oszillierende Bewegung des Verformungswerkzeuges erzeugt eine Auslenkkraft quer zur Austrittsrichtung des Hohlprofilstranges. Diese Auslenkung kann durch mechanische Druck- und Schubkräfte bewirkt werden. Ebenso ist eine elektromagnetische Auslenkung des Hohlprofilstranges möglich. Eine besonders schonende Beaufschlagung zur Auslenkung des Hohlprofilstranges durch das Verformungswerkzeug wird mittels eines fluiden Mediums erzielt. Hierbei können sowohl Luft, Stickstoff als auch Wasser eingesetzt werden.The oscillating movement of the deformation tool generates a deflection force transversely to the outlet direction of the hollow profile strand. This deflection can be effected by mechanical pressure and shear forces. Likewise, an electromagnetic deflection of the hollow profile strand is possible. A particularly gentle action on the deflection of the hollow profile strand by the deformation tool is achieved by means of a fluid medium. Here, both air, nitrogen and water can be used.
Wesentlich bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren ist; dass ein heißer Hohlprofilstrang verformt wird. Dies kann dadurch erzielt werden, dass das Verformungswerkzeug in unmittelbarer Nähe der Strangpressmatrize angeordnet ist. So kommt es zu keiner merklichen Abkühlung des Hohlprofilstranges, nachdem dieser aus der Strangpressmatrize austritt und dann vom Verformungswerkzeug beaufschlagt wird. Die Temperatur des Hohlprofilstrangs im Verformungswerkzeug sollte größer als 250° C sein, vorzugsweise mehr als 400° C, um eine deformationsarme Umformung zu ermöglichen. Wird nun der aus der Strangpresse austretende heiße Hohlprofilstrang von dem oszillierenden Verformungswerkzeug erfasst und ausgelenkt, wirken die Auslenkungskräfte bis zurück in die Strangpressmatrize und beeinflussen dort den Materialfluss. Ein solches Verformungswerkzeug lässt sich beispielsweise in einer Ausnehmung im Gegenholm der Strangpresse anordnen.Essential in the method according to the invention; that a hot hollow profile strand is deformed. This can be achieved by arranging the deformation tool in the immediate vicinity of the extrusion die. Thus, there is no noticeable cooling of the hollow profile strand after it emerges from the extrusion die and is then acted upon by the deformation tool. The temperature of the hollow profile strand in the deformation tool should be greater than 250 ° C, preferably more than 400 ° C, to allow a low-deformation deformation. If now the emerging from the extruder hot hollow profile strand is detected and deflected by the oscillating deformation tool, the deflection forces act back into the extrusion die and there influence the flow of material. Such a deformation tool can be arranged for example in a recess in the counter-spar of the extruder.
Es ist jedoch auch denkbar, dass der aus der Strangpressmatrize austretende Hohlprofilstrang aus der Strangpresse herausgeführt wird. In diesem Fall ist es vorteilhaft eine entsprechende Vorrichtung zum Führen des Profilsstrangs zwischen der Strangpresse und der Verformungsvorrichtung vorzusehen. Auch hier wird die hohe Austrittstemperatur des Hohlprofilsstrangs benutzt, um eine deformationsarme Umformung zu ermöglichen. Allerdings muss abgesichert sein, dass der Hohlprofilstrang im Verformungswerkzeug die gewünschte Umformtemperatur von größer als 250° C aufweist.However, it is also conceivable that the emerging from the extrusion die hollow profile strand is led out of the extruder. In this case, it is advantageous to provide a corresponding device for guiding the profile strand between the extrusion press and the deformation device. Again, the high exit temperature of the hollow section strand is used to allow a low deformation deformation. However, it must be ensured that the hollow profile strand in the deformation tool has the desired forming temperature greater than 250 ° C.
In einer weiteren Ausführung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens wird vorgesehen, dass die Strangpressmatrize selbst als sich oszillierend bewegendes Verformungswerkzeug wirkt. Die Strangpressmatrize oder Anlagen- und Werkzeugkomponenten, die die Strangpressmatrize in der Strangpresse positionieren, führen während des Strangspressvorgangs eine oszillierende Bewegung aus.In a further embodiment of the method according to the invention it is provided that the extrusion die itself as a deforming tool moving in an oscillating manner acts. The extrusion die or plant and tool components that position the extrusion die in the extrusion press perform an oscillating motion during the extrusion molding process.
Mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren lassen sich Hohlkammerprofile mit wellenförmigen Verformungen versehen, wobei im Gegensatz zum Stand der Technik es sich hier jedoch um definiert herstellbare Wellenverläufe handelt, d.h. um reproduzierbare Amplituden bzw. Wellenlängen der Verwellungen. Dadurch wird ein Hohlkammerprofil erzeugt, welches über die gesamte Längsausdehnung des Profils einen immer gleichbleibenden freien Strömungsquerschnitt und gleichbleibende Wanddicken aufweist. Es wird eine Vergrößerung der Wärmeaustauschfläche erzielt, ohne dass hohe Druckverluste im Profil auftreten können. Gleichzeitig wird die laminare Strömung durch die Verwellungen gestört. Diese Turbulenzen erhöhen vorteilhafterweise die Wärmeaustauschleistung des Profils.With the method according to the invention, hollow-chamber profiles can be provided with wave-shaped deformations, although, in contrast to the prior art, these are defined wave characteristics that can be produced in a defined manner, ie. around reproducible amplitudes or wavelengths of the corrugations. As a result, a hollow chamber profile is produced, which over the entire longitudinal extent of the profile has an always constant free flow cross-section and constant wall thicknesses. It is achieved an increase in the heat exchange surface without high pressure losses can occur in the profile. At the same time, the laminar flow is disturbed by the swellings. These turbulences advantageously increase the heat exchange performance of the profile.
