Abstract: A heat sink fin assembly of the corrugated type for cooling an LSI package comprises a flat base plate and a heat dissipating member made of a thin metal sheet having convex and concave portions which are comprised of a repeated series of side wall portions, top portions, and bottom portions. The base plate and the heat dissipating member are integrated with each other by bonding.

Abstract: Aluminum brazing alloys for assembling aluminum heat exchangers by brazing which consist essentially of 4.5 to 13.5% of Si, from 0.005% to less than 0.1% of Sr and the balance essentially Al and, further, optionally may contain at least one element selected from the group consisting of 0.3 to 3.0% of Mg, 2.3 t0 4.7% of Cu and 9.3 to 10.7% of Zn. The aluminum brazing alloys provide high strength brazed joints with highly refined microstructure and brazing operation can be performed in a good condition without causing any detrimental cavity. Such excellent properties make the brazing alloys especially suited for the fabrication of superhigh pressure heat exchangers.

Abstract: Fin stock materials adapted for use in superhigh pressure service heat exchanger fabricated by brazing are made of aluminum alloys consisting essentially of, in weight percentages, 0.6 to 1.5% of Mn, 0.1 to 1.0% of Cu, 0.1 to 0.75% of Mg, and 0.05 to less than 0.30% of Si, and the balance being aluminum and incidental impurities, the Fe in said impurities being controlled up to 0.8%. The aluminum alloy fin stock materials contain optionally at least one component selected from the group consisting of 0.05 to 0.25% of Zr, 0.01 to 0.25% of Ti, 0.05 to 0.25% of Cr and 0.01 to 0.25% of V. The fin stock materials have a combination of advantageous properties, particularly a high prevention effect of excessive silicon diffusion of brazing materials into the fins, good strength and formability, whereby give good utility particularly in plate fin heat exchangers for use in superhigh pressure applications.

Abstract: A brazing material is disclosed, particularly suitable for the brazing of fins onto a heat exchanger exposed to high internal pressure, comprised of an Al-Si based alloy wherein the Fe content is limited to not more than 0.15 wt %. The brazing material is suitable for use in the brazing of Mg-containing materials.

Abstract: A plate fin heat exchanger adapted to applications using superhigh-pressure fluids was fabricated by brazing, the heat exchanger using as fin stock an alloy consisting essentially of 0.3 to 1.0 wt. % Si, 0.05 to 0.25 wt. % Cu, 0.6 to 1.5 wt. % Mn and 0.45 to 0.9 wt. % Mg, the balance being aluminum and impurities, wherein said impurities contain up to 0.8 wt. % Fe.At least one component selected from the group consisting of 0.05 to 0.25 wt. % Cr, 0.01 to 0.25 wt. % Ti, 0.03 to 0.25 wt. % Zr and 0.01 to 0.25 wt. % V may be added to the above fin alloy stock.By using the above plate fin, excessive silicon diffusion from a brazing alloy into the fin, which may cause reduction of width of the brazed joint, is suppressed, and as a result, lowering of the bonding strength of the brazed joint is eliminated.
