Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of brazing sheets for heat exchanger tubes made from aluminum alloys, particularly those used for cooling or optimization of engine efficiency, and heating or air conditioning of the passenger compartment.
  • This is particularly applicable to heat exchanger tubes subject to a severely corrosive environment such as charged air cooler tubes through which exhaust gas circulation takes place, and usually provided with a turbulator designed to improve heat exchange by increasing the exchange surface area and disturbing internal fluid circulation.
  • Aluminum alloys are used for the fabrication of most automobiles heat exchangers due to their low density which enables a weight saving, particularly compared with copper alloys, while giving good thermal conduction, ease of use and good resistance to corrosion.
  • Exchangers comprise tubes for the circulation of internal fluid and fins or separators, and possibly a turbulator to increase heat transfer between the internal fluid and the external fluid, and they are fabricated either by mechanical assembly or by brazing.
  • CAC Charged Air Coolers
  • the normal configuration is that the core sheet making up the tube (usually called the tube strip) usually made from AA3xxx aluminum alloy, is coated on its external and internal faces with an alloy called the brazing alloy, usually in the AA4xxx series.
  • This has the advantage that it melts at a temperature below the core melting temperature and, through application of a thermal brazing cycle, can create a bond between two materials to be assembled, in other words brazed, or possibly to bond the tube strip onto itself so as to close the tube by brazing, the alternative being welding.
  • FIG. 1 This configuration is shown in FIG. 1 , the core of the tube strip being referenced as mark 2 and its internal and external brazing alloy clads being referenced as mark 1 .
  • the separators placed between the different tube rows are composed of an unclad AA3xxx alloy.
  • the turbulators that are inserted into the tubes are also made from an AA3xxx alloy and are not clad. Inserts are brazed on the tubes by the 4xxx clad on the outside face of the tube.
  • the turbulators are brazed in the tubes by the 4xxx clad on the inside face of the tube.
  • the AA3xxx alloys used for the separators and turbulators may or may not be identical.
  • the AA3xxx alloy used for the tube core is usually a so-called “long-life” alloy, in other words it has good resistance to external saline corrosion.
  • FIG. 2 shows a diagram of such a turbulator tube, the tube being referenced as mark 1 , the turbulator as mark 3 and the brazing alloy clads as mark 2 .
  • exhaust gases that could condense can generate a particularly severe corrosive environment in the cooler, characterized particularly by a low pH (that can significantly be less than 3).
  • One solution known to those skilled in the art consists of inserting intermediate cladding during co-rolling, made from an AA1xxx or AA7xxx alloy, between the tube core alloy and its internal coating made from AA4xxx brazing alloy.
  • Such a configuration is diagrammatically shown in FIG. 3 , the tube core being referenced as mark 3 , the outside coating made from an AA4xxx alloy being referenced as mark 4 , the inside coating also made from an AA4xxx alloy being referenced as mark 1 , and intermediate coating made from an AA1xxx or AA7xxx alloy being referenced as mark 2 .
  • Such a coating acts by limiting diffusion of silicon from the internal cladding to the tube core during brazing, thus improving its corrosion resistance.
  • a sacrificial alloy typically in the AA7xxx series may also be used as the intermediate cladding alloy.
  • Another solution disclosed in applications EP 1762810 A1 and US 2007/0051503 A1 by Behr America Inc. consists of favoring the creation of a “brown band” known to those skilled in the art, between the AA3xxx alloy core of the turbulator and its cladding composed of an AA4xxx alloy (typically AA4045), during the conventional type brazing inside the tube.
  • the tube is also typically made from an AA3xxx alloy clad with AA4xxx on both sides.
  • the tube and the turbulator are actually composed of the same material.
  • the invention is aimed at optimizing the choice of materials or brazing sheets made from aluminum alloys designed for production of exchanger tubes with brazed turbulator to improve their resistance in a severe corrosive environment like that created by recirculation of automobile vehicle exhaust gases, without increasing the quantity of materials used or dimensions or the weight, and for which manufacturing conditions (ease of use and cost) starting from brazing sheets are at least equivalent to solutions according to prior art.
  • the purpose of the invention is an assembly of two brazing sheets, the first being composed of a AA3xxx clad on one face with on a AA1xxx alloy, and the second sheet being composed of an AA3xxx aluminum alloy clad on both faces with an AA4xxx alloy, the two sheets being assembled to each other by brazing, so as to form a closed channel or tube with an internal turbulator, inside which exhaust gases flow, particularly exhaust gases from an automobile vehicle, alone or in association with another fluid, typically air, the face of the channel exposed to these gases or to this mix being the face coated with the 1xxx alloy in the first sheet forming the channel, the second forming the internal turbulator.

  • the 4945 alloy is an AA4045 alloy that also contains 0.15% of Bi.
  • Tube mockups were fitted with turbulators brazed using the Nocolok® process for references 1 to 3 in table 1 and fluxless brazed for reference 4, with a temperature increase phase up to 600° C. at a rate of about 40° C./min, constant temperature for 2 min at 600° C. and then a temperature reduction at a rate of about 50° C./min, all under nitrogen with a flow of 8 l/min.
  • Configuration 1 applies to a simple tube made from a 3916 core alloy coated on its two faces with an AA4045 brazing alloy and a turbulator made from a AA3003 alloy.
  • Configuration 2 is identical except for an additional and intermediate layer of AA1050 alloy between the core and the AA4045 internal brazing alloy.
  • Configuration 3 uses a tube made from a 3916 core alloy coated on the outside with an AA4045 brazing alloy and on the inside with an AA1050 brazing alloy and a turbulator made from a 3916 core alloy coated on both sides with an AA4045 brazing alloy.
  • Configuration 4 uses a tube made from a 3916 core alloy coated on the outside with an AA4045 brazing alloy and on the inside with an AA1050 alloy and a turbulator made from an AA3920 core alloy coated on both faces with a 4945 brazing alloy (containing 0.15% of Bi) in accordance with the above-mentioned preferred compositions.
  • brazing was done fluxless under a protective atmosphere in accordance with the patent deposited by the above-mentioned applicant.
  • test cycle consists of two repetitions of steps 1, 2 and 3 and then three repetitions of steps 4, 5 and 6 and the complete cycle is repeated four thousand times.
  • Sulfate ions were introduced in the form of sulfuric acid, nitrate ions in the form of acetic acid and chloride ions in the form of hydrochloric acid.
  • the resistance to corrosion was evaluated by metallographic observation on a cross-section of the tube and of the turbulator.
  • Tube Turbulator joints 1 Very severe, Corrosion by Little corrosion. intergranular local pitting. No Some separated corrosion. intergranular joints Some leaks corrosion 2 Severe, Corrosion by Little corrosion. intergranular local pitting. No Some separated corrosion. intergranular joints Some leaks corrosion 3 Very little and Intergranular Little corrosion. very shallow corrosion No separated corrosion. No joints intergranular corrosion 4 Very little and Intergranular Little corrosion. very shallow corrosion No separated corrosion. No joints intergranular corrosion
  • the tubes in configurations 1 and 2 have severe corrosion that can result in perforations and a significant deterioration of some brazing joints between the tube and the turbulator.
  • the unclad turbulators associated with this type of tube are only slightly corroded.
  • configurations 3 and 4 according to the invention show very little tube corrosion, often limited to cladding. Corrosion of brazing joints is also limited. Turbulators associated with this type of tube are significantly corroded. However this situation is considered to be significantly better.
  • a single perforation on a tube causes a leak in the complete heat exchanger circuit.
  • a leak on a turbulator causes a reduction in the heat exchange quality of the exchanger.
