Description

Brazing repair method for local leakage of vacuum brazing aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger core
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of aluminum alloy welding, and particularly relates to a rapid brazing repair method for local leakage of a vacuum brazing aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger core.
Background
The aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger is a novel efficient heat exchanger taking aluminum alloy corrugated fins as heat transfer elements, is the most advanced heat exchanger at home and abroad at present, has the characteristics of small thermal resistance, high heat exchange efficiency, compact structure, small volume, light weight, strong adaptability, firmness, durability, good economy, capability of being designed into dozens of strands of fluids for simultaneous heat exchange and the like, is specially used in the military fields of aviation, submarines and the like at early stage, is widely applied to the fields of petrifaction, aerospace, electronics, atomic energy, ships, power machinery and the like at present, continuously replaces the traditional heat exchanger such as a shell and tube type heat exchanger and rapidly expands the application range of the heat exchanger.
The aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger is formed by assembling and welding a core body, an end enclosure, a connecting pipe, a flange and the like through argon arc welding, wherein the core part of the aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger is a core body of a unit body stacked structure consisting of five elements, namely a fin, a flow deflector, a partition plate, a side plate and a seal strip, and the aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger is usually formed by vacuum brazing. The fin, the guide vane, the side plate and the seal material are usually 3003 aluminum alloy, the partition plate is usually Q515 aluminum alloy composite plate, the middle core plate is 3003 aluminum alloy, and the upper surface layer and the lower surface layer are 4004 alloy coating layers which are 5-18% of the thickness of the composite plate and have silicon content of 9.0-10.5%, namely brazing filler metal layers.
The production process of the aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger is complex and has high technical requirements, and the common main production procedures are as follows: (1) part processing → (2) inspection → (3) cleaning before welding → (4) inspection → (5) core assembly → (6) inspection → (7) vacuum brazing → (8) outline and dimension inspection → (9) welding upper pressure testing end socket, performing airtightness test → (10) cutting pressure testing end socket → (11) cleaning → (12) and end socket assembling welding → (13) outline and dimension inspection, airtightness and strength test → (14) cleaning and drying → (15) nitrogen sealing and leaving the factory. Due to different design requirements of products, the working procedures from (9) to (11) can be omitted from some heat exchangers. All channels of the core body after brazing can bear pressure, and leakage is not allowed at all positions, but the core body after vacuum brazing cannot be completely avoided due to the fact that the aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger is complex in structure and production process and high in technical requirement, and the core body is manually assembled before brazing, which is a common practical problem for aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger production enterprises at home and abroad.
The core body leakage is divided into an outer leakage and an inner leakage, wherein the outer leakage accounts for the most part. The leakage refers to the outward leakage of the medium in the channel through the gap between the seal and the side plate; the inner leakage refers to the mutual leakage caused by the serial communication between two adjacent different channels. The core part is not allowed to have any leakage, and can only be discarded if large-area leakage occurs; for the core body which only has local leakage, the core body should be repaired as far as possible on the premise of ensuring the service performance of the product in consideration of cost and energy conservation.
For the local leakage of the core body, the current repair methods adopted at home and abroad are three types: 1. blocking a heat exchange channel; 2. plugging with a high polymer material; 3. and (5) repairing by argon arc welding. Because the heat exchange efficiency of the whole heat exchanger can be influenced by blocking the heat exchange channel, the design has very strict limitation on the heat exchange efficiency, the compact and precise heat exchanger core body, such as a military heat exchanger, is not allowed to block the heat exchange channel, and the heat exchange channel blocking method is only suitable for a very small number of heat exchanger core bodies and can be adopted only under the design permission condition. High polymer materials such as widely used DW polyurethane adhesives have high mechanical properties and good low-temperature properties, and can be used for repairing local leakage of a core body, but because the requirements on surface pretreatment of a repaired part are very high, the actual product repair is difficult to achieve a relatively ideal effect, and the DW polyurethane adhesives are not suitable for heat exchangers with high working temperature and high working pressure, and are very limited in application. The method is a feasible method for repairing the local leakage of the heat exchanger core by adopting manual argon tungsten-arc welding with strictly controlled welding standard parameters and small linear energy, but the method is only suitable for the heat exchanger core with thicker partition plates and sealing strips. The manual argon tungsten-arc welding has the disadvantages of large electric arc, large arc spot size, small electric arc energy density, large heating area, high requirements on the core structure and size precision of the heat exchanger, small thickness of the partition plate and the seal strip, and particularly small thickness (usually less than 2.0mm) of the partition plate, so the manual argon tungsten-arc welding also puts high requirements on the welding operation technology of welding personnel. How to effectively repair the local leakage of the core body of the heat exchanger is a hot spot concerned by aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger production enterprises at home and abroad at present, and is a common technical problem to be solved urgently. The heat exchanger core body is scrapped due to the fact that local leakage cannot be effectively repaired, not only can great direct economic loss be brought, but also the production process can be seriously affected.

Detailed Description
The invention relates to a repair method for local leakage of a core body of an aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger for vacuum brazing by heating and melting pasty aluminum alloy brazing filler metal through oxyacetylene flame, which is a manual flame brazing method. Flame brazing is to use the gasification product of combustible gas or liquid fuel and oxygen or air to mix and burn the flame formed to carry on the braze welding and heat, wherein use oxyacetylene flame brazing to employ the most extensively, mainly used for braze welding carbon steel, copper and thin-walled and small-scale weldment of the copper alloy, can also be used for braze welding low alloy steel and aluminium and aluminum alloy. Oxyacetylene brazing processes are relatively simple and do not require a shielding gas, but require the use of a flux. Prior to the present invention, oxyacetylene brazing was not used for the repair of local leaks in vacuum brazed aluminum plate fin heat exchanger cores. Due to the particularity of local leakage of the core body of the vacuum brazing aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger, a series of key technical problems must be solved by adopting oxyacetylene brazing for repair. The method comprises the following steps of determining the type of brazing material (components, forms and specifications of brazing filler metal and brazing flux, and the proportion of the brazing filler metal and the brazing flux), effectively applying the brazing material, determining the nature of oxyacetylene flame, cleaning a leakage gap before brazing, avoiding the phenomenon that local leakage is continuously expanded and a new local leakage defect occurs due to excessive thermal stress generated during brazing heating, and avoiding the damage of fins, partition plates and seals adjacent to the repaired part.
As is known, the welding materials adopted by the traditional aluminum alloy brazing are powdered brazing flux and aluminum alloy brazing filler metals such as powder, wires, foils, sheets, rods and the like, and for repairing local leakage of a vacuum brazing aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger core, the traditional aluminum alloy brazing material is difficult to effectively apply due to small gaps at the leakage position, the cleaning of the leakage gap before brazing is very difficult, and the cleaning directly determines the success or failure of brazing repair. Therefore, for the repair of the local leakage of the core body of the vacuum brazing aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger, the paste-shaped brazing filler metal is adopted most effectively, and the method has the unique advantages that: (1) the brazing filler metal is convenient to accurately add, and the method is particularly suitable for brazing seams with irregular shapes; (2) the proportion of the brazing flux and the brazing filler metal is accurate, the film removing capability is strong, and the residues after brazing are very little. So far, the research and development of paste solder at home and abroad mainly focuses on tin-based, copper-based and silver-based solder, the paste aluminum alloy solder is very few and has marketable yield index, and the soldering temperature is high during soldering because the solder powder in the paste solder is Al-Si-based solder powder. The Al-Si based solder is the most widely used solder for brazing aluminum alloys, and is based on an A1-Si eutectic composition (Al-12.6Si), and the eutectic alloy has good wettability, fluidity, corrosion resistance and workability of a brazed joint, and high strength of the brazed joint. However, the Al-Si brazing filler metal has a high melting point (the Al-12.6Si eutectic crystal temperature is 577 ℃), the brazing temperature is more than 600 ℃ during brazing, and the phenomena of overburning, corrosion and the like of an aluminum alloy base metal are easily caused by the excessively high brazing temperature, so that the performance of a brazed joint is reduced. In some special applications, such as brazing of thin-walled aluminum plate-fin heat exchangers, the use of Al-Si based brazing filler metals is greatly restricted.
On the basis of analyzing the structure and the local leakage characteristics of the core body of the vacuum brazing aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger systematically, the invention solves the key technical problem through a series of experiments based on the medium-temperature pasty aluminum alloy brazing filler metal (ZL201810582571.9) invented by the inventor, and invents a rapid brazing repair method for the local leakage of the core body of the vacuum brazing aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger. The method has the advantages that the traditional oxyacetylene brazing is applied to repair of local leakage of the core body of the vacuum brazing aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger, remarkable progress is achieved, and the oxyacetylene brazing is not only a brazing method for aluminum and aluminum alloy, but also can be used as a repair method for local leakage of the core body of the vacuum brazing aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger. The method is simple, the paste solder is easy to coat, the oxyacetylene is convenient to heat, the operability and controllability are strong, and the repair qualification rate is high. Because the melting point of the paste solder is low, the expansion of leakage defects during repair and the damage of parts such as fins and the like caused by large thermal stress can be effectively avoided during oxyacetylene heating.
The present invention will be described in detail with reference to specific examples, and the objects and effects of the present invention will become more apparent. The medium-temperature paste aluminum alloy brazing filler metal comprises the following components in parts by weight: 400g of low-melting-point high-strength aluminum alloy powder brazing filler metal, 100-110 mL of powdery brazing flux QJ 20160-65 g of liquid paraffin oil and 2-2.2 g of polyvinylpyrrolidone. The low-melting-point high-strength aluminum alloy powder brazing filler metal consists of 8.6-9.5% by mass of Si, 16.5-17.5% by mass of Cu, 8.5-9.5% by mass of Ge, 4.5-5.0% by mass of Ni, 4.0-5.0% by mass of Zn, 0.70-0.75% by mass of Sr, 0.35-0.40% by mass of Bi, 0.40-0.45% by mass of La, 0.40-0.55% by mass of Ce, 0.10-0.20% by mass of Yb and the balance of Al.
