Technical challenge
• What is the main constraint?– Thermal inertia – Needs to reduce it to improve the efficiency during the cold
start
• Need to reduce the material thickness of tubes and fins.
– High temperature – The heat exchanger has to resist against thermal stress
• What is the difficulty?– Need to identify the lowest material thickness for which brazing is still possible
in accordance with product requirements
– Need to develop the brazing process
– Maintain the core straight without gas leak
Need for development work

Work performed
1. Development work– Brazing process development
• Define quantity and BFM (Braze Filler Metal) type
• Braze trials to controlling diffusion of the BFM into the base metal– Define the right braze furnace temperature/time profile – Cross-sectional photo-micrographs: understand the braze joint depth
and base metal dissolution
– Tooling development• Forming the male and female plates to achieve 2.9 mm of cavity
• Build a new stack fixture (device which maintains and compress the stacked core during the brazing in the furnace)

Work performed since the 12th Month meeting
2. Manufacturing work: Main steps of the manufacturing process– Cut the fins and plates by EDM wire cutting
– Form the plates
– Fit the fins to the plates
– Clean the fins and plates
– Apply BFM (Braze filler Metal) to the plates
– Assemble stack and compress it with the fixture
– Braze the stack in the vacuum furnace
– Leak check
– Machining the headers
– Assemble the heat exchanger core with the headers
– Apply BFM and maintain the assembly with the fixture
– Braze the stack in the vacuum furnace
– Leak check
