DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0011] This invention involves aluminum micro channel heat exchanger (MCHX) alloy systems including multi-channel (or multi-port) extruded tubes, with or without sacrificial anodic surface treatments, such as zinc, fin alloys cladded with a silicon rich lower melting point layer, a manifold (or header) alloy and a brazing flux.
[0012] With reference to FIGS. 1-4, a micro channel heat exchanger alloy system 10 is provided and includes first and second manifolds 20 and 30, a tube 40, a fin structure 50 and a flux material 60. The first and second manifolds 20 and 30 are volumetric features formed to define respective interiors 21 and 31 therein, as shown in FIG. 4, and are formed of a 3000 series aluminum, which is an aluminum alloy that normally includes about 1.0-1.5 weight per cent (wt%) manganese as well as magnesium. The 3000 series aluminum may be 3003 aluminum, which contains 1.2 wt% manganese and 0.12 wt% copper plus minor elements like iron and silicon as contaminants. The tube 40 includes at least one of 31108 alloy material (especially with lithium flux), which includes 0.21-0.25 wt% silicon, 0.12 wt% iron, 0.01 wt% copper, 0.90-1.10 wt% manganese, 0.05 wt% magnesium, 0.02 wt% chromium, 0.03 wt% zinc and 0.14-0.20 wt% titanium, 31107 alloy material and 31104 alloy material, which includes 0.10 wt% silicon, 0.01 wt% copper, 0.05 wt% magnesium, 0.05 wt% zinc, 0.12 wt% iron, 1.10 wt% manganese (or magnesium), 0.05 wt% chromium and 0.05 wt% titanium, and extends from the first manifold 20 to the second manifold 30. The tube 40 is formed to define multiple channels 41, as shown in FIG. 2, by which the respective interiors 21 and 31 of the first and the second manifolds 20 and 30 fluidly communicate with each other. The fin structure 50 includes at least one of X758, 6815 and 3003 alloy materials and is disposed in thermal communication with the tube 40. The fin structure 50 is further cladded with a silicon rich layer 51, including a 4000 series aluminum, which is an aluminum alloy that normally includes about 4.5-6.0 wt% silicon to form a low melting point alloy for joining or casting purposes, such as 4043 aluminum (5.2 wt% silicon). The flux material 60 is applied to surfaces of the first and second manifolds 20 and 30, the tube 40 and the fin structure 50 and may include lithium modified flux material.
[0013] As shown in FIG. 1, the tube 40 may be plural in number with each of the plural tubes 40 extending from the first manifold 20 to the second manifold 30. Each of the plural tubes 40 is also formed to define multiple channels 41. Whether the tube 40 is a single feature or plural features, the tube 40 may have a non-circular cross-section, such as an elongate cross-section, with the multiple channels 41 being arrayed along the non-circular cross-section. For the example of the elongate cross-section, the multiple channels 41 would be arrayed along the elongations of the tube 40. [0014] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the fin structure 50 may also be plural in number with each of the plural fin structures disposed in thermal communication with the tube(s) 40.

[0016] While the invention has been described in detail in connection with only a limited number of embodiments, it should be readily understood that the invention is not limited to such disclosed embodiments. Rather, the invention can be modified to incorporate any number of variations, alterations, substitutions or equivalent arrangements not heretofore described, but which are commensurate with the spirit and scope of the invention. Additionally, while various embodiments of the invention have been described, it is to be understood that aspects of the invention may include only some of the described embodiments. Accordingly, the invention is not to be seen as limited by the foregoing description, but is only limited by the scope of the appended claims.
