- FIG. 1 is a front view showing an aluminum heat exchanger 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- this heat exchanger 1 is used as a condenser for use in a refrigeration cycle of a car air-conditioner, and constitutes the so-called multi-flow type heat exchanger.
- a plurality of flat heat exchanging tubes 2 are horizontally arranged in parallel with their opposite ends connected to a pair of hollow headers vertically disposed in parallel in fluid communication.
- a corrugated fin 3 is disposed between the adjacent tubes 2 and on the outermost tube 2, and a side plate 10 is arranged on the outside of the outermost corrugated fin 3.
- the tube 2 is made of aluminum or its alloy (hereinafter simply referred to as "aluminum")
- the fin 3 and the header 4 are made of an aluminum brazing sheet in which brazing material is clad at least on one surface thereof.
- the tubes 2 , the fins 3 , the headers 4 and the side plates 10 are provisionally assembled into a heat exchanger assembly, and the provisional heat exchanger assembly is brazed in a furnace to be integrally brazed. As shown in Fig.
- the tube 2 includes a tube core made of an aluminum extruded article and a thermally sprayed layer 20 containing Cu (including its alloy) and Zn (including its alloy) formed on at least one surface of the tube core .
- a thermally sprayed layer 20 containing Cu (including its alloy) and Zn (including its alloy) formed on at least one surface of the tube core .
- the core material of the tube Al-Mn alloy, e.g., JIS 3003 alloy, excellent in high pressure resistance (high strength) and high heat resistance can be used.
- As the core material considering the corrosion resistance, it is preferable to use alloy containing 0.05 mass% or less of Cu.
- the tube core is formed by extruding the aforementioned alloy material.
- the thermally sprayed layer 20 formed on the tube core can be formed bymaking Cu and Zn adhere by thermal spraying processing.
- Cu and Zn contained in the thermally sprayed layer 20 are diffused by the heating at the time of integral brazing during the heat exchanger manufacturing process , and form a Cu diffusion layer? and a Zn diffusion layer respectively.
- the Cu diffusion layer is high in heat resistance and high in pressure resistance, and enhances the heat resistance and the pressure resistance (strength) of the entire tube.
- the Zn diffusion layer is formed as a sacrificial corrosion layer, improving the corrosion resistance of the tube 2, which in turn improves the durability of the tube 2.
- an arc thermal spraying method can be preferably employed.
- a thermal spraying gun of an arc thermal spraying machine is moved along the tube core, or a method for thermally spraying Cu and Zn while rewinding a tube core wound in the shape of a coil.
- a method in which a thermal spraying is continuously performed by a thermal spraying gun disposed immediately after an extrusion die is used as a thermal spraying gun.
- the Cu thermal spraying and the Zn thermal spraying can be performed separately or at different thermal spraying positions , or can be performed simultaneously.
- alloy containing both Cu and Zn can be thermally sprayed.
- Cu thermal spraying and the Zn thermal spraying are performed separately, either Cu thermal spraying or Zn thermal spraying can be performed first.
- Zn can be thermally sprayed.
- Cu can be thermally sprayed.
- an arc can be simultaneously generated using a Cu wire and a Zn wire to thermally spray pseudo Cu-Zn alloy.
- Al-Cu-Zn series alloy can be thermally sprayed with an arc thermal-spraying machine, or Cu-Zn series alloy can be thermally sprayed with a flame-spraying machine.
- the aforementioned thermal sprayingprocessing is preferably performed in inert gas atmosphere (non-oxidizing atmosphere) , such as nitrogen gas atmosphere, in order to prevent oxidization of the thermally sprayed layer 20 to be formed on the aluminummaterial (core material) surface.
- the thermally sprayed layer 20 can be formed only on one side of the tube core, or on both sides , the upper and lower surfaces .
- the Cu adhesion amount on the tube 2 by thermal spraying processing is preferably adjusted so as to fall within the range of 1 to 10 g/m 2 (including the upper limit and the lower limit ) , more preferably 2 to 5 g/m 2 . If the Cu adhesion amount is too low, there is a possibility that it becomes difficult to fully secure heat resistance and pressure resistance.
- the Zn adhesion amount to a tube 2 is preferably adjusted to 1 to 20 g/m 2 , more preferably 2 to 12 g/m 2 . If the Zn adhesive amount is too low, a Zndiffusion layer, i.e. , asacrificialcorrosion layer, cannot fully be formed, which may cause deterioration of corrosion resistance.
- the Zn adhesion amount becomes excessive, the Zn amount in a sacrificial corrosion layer increases excessively, resulting in early corrosion of the sacrificial corrosion layer, which in turn causes deterioration of durability.
- the thermally spraying material can contain a small amount of other elements in the un-influential degree as inevitable impurities.
- Fe can be contained by 0.6 mass% or less.
- the ratio of the thermal-spraying area to the entire tube surface is preferably set to 50% or more, more preferably 60% or more. That is, if the area ratio is too low, the Cu and Zn containing area decreases, resulting in insufficient strength and heat resistance, and also resulting in insufficient size of a sacrificial corrosion layer, which in turn makes it difficult to secure appropriate corrosion resistance.
- the average thickness of the thermally sprayed layer 20 is not specifically limited, it is preferably to adjust so as to have an average thickness of 0.4 to 50 ⁇ m, more preferably 0.5 to 20 ⁇ m. That is, if it is tried to excessively decrease the thickness of the thermally sprayed layer 20, it becomes difficult to control the adhesion amount of the thermally spraying material, resulting in uneven adhesion amount. Accordingly, there is a possibility that desired performance cannot be obtained. To the contrary, even if it is l -j tried to form an excessively thick layer, an effect corresponding to the thickness cannot be obtained. Furthermore, it is difficult to orm a thermally sprayed layer having a thickness of 50 ⁇ m or more.
- the heat exchanging tube 2 of the aforementioned embodiment is used together with other heat exchanger components, such as hollow headers 4, corrugated fins 3 andsideplates 10 , andassembledinto aprovisionalheat exchanger. Thereafter, flux is applied to this provisional assembly and dried. Then, the provisional assembly is heated in a heating furnace of nitrogen gas atmosphere to simultaneously braze the components to thereby obtain an integrally brazed heat exchanger. In this embodiment, due to the heating at the time of the brazing, Cu and Zn contained in the thermally sprayed layer 20 of the tube 2 are diffused to form a diffusion layer as described above.
- the heat exchanger tube 2 excellent in heat resistance, pressure resistance and outstanding resistance can be obtained. Accordingly, since the tube 2 is excellent inheat resistance, pressure resistance and durability (corrosion resistance) , in this embodiment, theheatresistance, pressureresistance anddurability of the entire heat exchanger can be improved.
- the Cu and Zn is thermally sprayed onto the tube core obtained by extrusion, the Cu content in the tube core, i.e., the extruded article, can be controlled as low as possible . For this reason, a raise in strength and temperature of the extrusion material due to the Cu content can be prevented, metal working, such as extrusion molding, can be performed easily, resulting in high manufacturing efficiency.
- Example Hereafter, Examples according to the present invention and Comparative Examples for verifying effects of the invention will be explained.
- extrusion material consisting of Al alloy (Cu: 0.02 mass%, Mn: 1 mass%, balance being Al)
- a multi-bored flat tube having a width of 16 mm, a height of 3 mm and a thickness of 0.5 mm was extruded with an extrusion machine.
- thermal spraying guns of an arc thermal spraying machine were disposed at upper and lower sides of the outlet of the extrusion machine to thermally spraying Al-Cu-Zn alloy onto the upper and lower sides of the extruded tube to thereby form thermal sprayed layers.
- the tube with thermally sprayed layers (tube ( tube for heat exchangers ) was cooled in a cooling bath and rolled in a coil shape.
- the Cu adhesion amount was adjusted to 0.5 g/m 2 and the Zn adhesion amount was adjusted to 16 g/m 2 .
- a provisionally assembled heat exchanger having the same structure as that of the aforementioned multi-flow type heat exchanger as explained in the aforementioned embodiment was prepared. Then, slurry in which flux was suspended in water was sprayed onto the provisionally assembled heat exchanger and dried.
- heat exchanger samples and plate material samples were prepared in the same manner as in the aforementioned embodiments .
- Examples 18 to 23 Heat exchanger samples and plate material samples were prepared by the same processing as in Example 17, except that the Cu adhesion amount and Zn adhesion amount were adjusted as shown in Table 2 during the thermal spraying processing.
- a thermal spraying layer was formed by thermally spraying Al-Si-Cu-Zn series alloy (Si: 10 mass%, Cu: 4mass%, Zn: 4mass%, balance being Al) .
- heat exchanger samples and plate material samples were prepared in the same manner as in the aforementioned embodiments .
- the fin remaining rate after corrosion test is represented by a percentage of the joining rate of the sample tube and fin after the corrosion test to that of the sample tube and fin before the corrosion test .
- the high temperature strength (tensile strength at 200 °C) of each plate sample of the aforementioned example and comparative example was measured .
- a standardplate (non-thermally sprayed standard plate) processed in the same manner as mentioned above except that no thermal spraying processing was performed was prepared, and the high temperature strength (tensile strength
