The formation phase and interface structure of the joints were investigated by electron probe microanalysis (EPMA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), and the joint strength was tested by shearing method. The results showed: there occurred three new formation phases, Cu(s.s), FeNi and Ag(s.s) in TiC cermet/iron joint. The interface structure was expressed as TiC cermet/Cu(s.s)+FeNi/Ag(s.s)+a little Cu(s.s)+a little FeNi/Cu(s.s)+FeNi/iron, With brazing time increasing, there appeared highest shear strength of the joints, the value of which was up to 252.2MPa when brazing time was 10min.展开更多

It lowers the brazing rate and affects the properties of joint. Experimental results show that the application of unequal-gap brazing seam effectively decreases the amount and volume of gas pores, and increases brazing rate.This paper establishes a force model of unequal-gap brazing seam, and proposes the constitutive relationship between expulsion force and curvature. The force condition of gas bubble in geometrically different brazing seams were calculated, and the results were verified with experiments. The results show that the expulsion force of gas bubble is positively correlated to the curvature of the seam geometry. The gas bubble tends to move towards the direction with large curvature and wider gap. The directional bubble movement is obtained through varying the configuration of gas-liquid interface to meet geometric conditions. Gas bubble accelerates to expulse with arc, hyperbola and cycloid brazing seams, in which the best drainage effects of gas bubble occur for cycloid seams.展开更多

The strength of brazing joint determines the reliability of brazed engineering components. So the need to ascertain the reliability or to predict its failure （without some destructive testing） becomes high even with a computer aided analysis using the Finite Element Analysis. Here, we have employed the services of FEA software, Abaqus CAE, as a tool for the computer calculation to investigate a joint case of cemented carbide brazed with silver-based filler metal. In this paper, 2D analysis has been adopted because the thickness of the material （in 2D） does not influence the final calculation results. We have applied constant loading and constant boundary condition to explore data from the elastic and plastic strain analysis through which we were able to predict the maximum joint strength with respect to the joint thickness. The pattern of the meshing was also significant. And the result could be transferable to a real-life field situation. The final results showed that there is an optimum thickness of the filler metal with the maximum strength which matches that obtained from experiment.展开更多
