| Title of the article | Technological features of laser welding of spring-twisted channels of heat exchangers |
| Abstract. | The article discusses a method of making spring-twisted channels using the technology of laser welding. The advantages of laser welding to other types of welding for the manufacture of spring-twisted channel of heat exchangers are shown. They are: – Minimum molten weld pool due to the high ratio of concentration of the heat source; – Less than the values of transverse and longitudinal shrinkage due to the minimum amount of weld pool; – High-speed welding because of the process in deep penetration; – Minimum heat affected zone due to high welding speeds; – Minimum investment in heat welded construction; – The possibility of welding at atmospheric conditions. Two variants of the technological process. The rationale of two simultaneous processes: coiling spring and laser welding. Simultaneous management of two processes: the winding spring gives the desired weld quality while maintaining the geometric dimensions of the finished part in the dimensional tolerance. Technology provides high reproducibility of manufacturing quality of spring-twisted channel of heat exchangers. Shows the required control methods, the results of which judge the quality of the manufacture of spring-twisted channel heat exchangers can be judged. – Metrological control of geometrical sizes of spring-twisted channel heat exchangers, welded together by laser welding. – Metallographic examination of welds spring-twisted channel heat exchangers made by laser welding. – Fluid-testing of spring-twisted channel of heat exchangers, welded together by laser welding. |
