Abstract

Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Eck Industries produced and characterized durable and corrosion resistant Al-Ce-Mg alloy-based heat exchanger.Eck Industries successfully casted Al-Ce-Mg heat exchanger.ORNL characterized reaction bonding between Al-2Ce-6Mg alloy and stainless-steel tube in a heat exchanger header.Metallurgical bonds were achieved between stainless steel tubes and Al-Ce-Mg alloy cast headers.ORNL performed corrosion testing on Al-Ce-Mg alloy/stainless steel tube reactive bond interface.In most cases no significant changes to the reactive bond morphology or compositional distribution were observed in the samples after exposure to acid for 267h acid.
