Objective A copper-brass fluids union is brazed under constrained conditions (onboard a submarine), where access is limited and flame is not allowed.
Material copper and brass plumbing components
Temperature 750°C (1380 ºF)
Frequency 245 kHz
Equipment Power of 20KW induction heating system including:
• Coil: custom-designed multi-turn helical
• Workhead: two 1.5μF capacitors, (Total 0.75μF)
Process The coil is designed to maximize heating efficiency to reduce the cycle time and to reduce the heat conducted along the brass tubes.
The assemblies are first cleaned and braze flux is applied to the entire surface of the assembly. The induction coil is slipped over the tube and the brass coupling is placed over the brass tubes. The flux is allowed to dry.
The assembly is heated until the braze flows.
Results/Benefits Ergonomics: Induction provides a reliable braze joint obtained under limited-access conditions
Economy: energy is applied only to the joint; little energy is
lost to surrounding parts, air
Safety: flame is not used; no bottled gasses required
