Obiettivo The goal of the project is to develop innovative SiC-to-metal brazing techniques for working temperatures up to 1000°C and in corrosive conditions. For thermal applications (heat exchangers), mechanical applications (seals, bearings) and electrical heater applications, the existing brazing processes do not at all meet the requirements, as they are limited to working temperature of 400°C in non aggressive media. The technical challenge is to develop a brazing process which can overcome the large thermal expansion mismatch and the chemical incompatibility between SiC and metal. The project will study an innovative and promising multi-layer composite joints approach, with successive diffusion barrier and interlayer, creating chemical and mechanical gradients between SiC and metal. Moreover, an asymmetrical heating concept will be evaluated in order to limit the mechanical stresses after cooling. The results of the project are the brazing process for each application and the demonstrators tested in working conditions Campo scientifico natural sciencesphysical sciencesthermodynamics Programma(i) FP5-GROWTH - Programme for research technological development and demonstration on "Competitive and sustainable growth 1998-2002" Argomento(i) 1.1.3.-5. - RTD Activities of a Generic Nature : materials and their technologies for production and transformation and new and improved materials and production technologies in the steel field Invito a presentare proposte Data not available Meccanismo di finanziamento CSC - Cost-sharing contracts Coordinatore COMMISSARIAT A L'ENERGIE ATOMIQUE Contributo UE Nessun dato Indirizzo Rue des Martyrs 17 38054 GRENOBLE Francia Mostra sulla mappa Costo totale Nessun dato Partecipanti (6) Classifica in ordine alfabetico Classifica per Contributo UE Espandi tutto Riduci tutto AACHEN UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY Germania Contributo UE Nessun dato Indirizzo Templergraben 55 52056 AACHEN Mostra sulla mappa Costo totale Nessun dato AICHELIN ENTWICKLUNGSZENTRUM UND AGGREGATEBAU GMBH Germania Contributo UE Nessun dato Indirizzo 7,Ringstrasse 7 09569 OEDERAN Mostra sulla mappa Costo totale Nessun dato BURGMANN INDUSTRIES GMBH & CO.
