Structural and Thermal Calculation for Recuperative Heat Exchanger Presented by -- Jinying Zhu
Review: • The size of duct: 200μm*200μm • Duct number: 200*200 • Material: SS 304 Allowable stress (MPa) : 206.84 Young’s Modulus (GPa) : 193.05 Structural calculation result: (the weakest part--connector) Thickness(μm) max. stress (MPa) max.displacement(μm) 200 215 2.23 300 190 2.80
Thermal calculation: Thickness (μm ) Length (cm) Effectiveness 200 30 90.31% 300 30 90.00% • Analysis: • Relatively high thermal conductivity of SS 304 (12.31W/mK) leads to low effectiveness. • To use other materials with low thermal conductivity and high strength (LTCC is our choice)
Low temperature co-fired ceramic -- LTCC Characteristics: • Soft, pliable and easily dissolved and abrade in the green state. • After the material is fired and fully sintered, it becomes tough and rigid. • Relatively high strength and wide range of conductivity • Easy to machine the tape in the green state with the size of 10 μm to 10 mm • Layer number can be high
Micromachining of LTCC tape • Conventional method: punch and die process (the line with the width of 25 μm has been machined) • Numerically controlled (CNC) milling method (It has been used and obtain the feature size of 100 μm) • Chemical machining: jet vapor etching (The technique allows to manufacture a wide variety of shapes, and holes with the diameter of 25 μm have been obtained) • Laser machining
Low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC): Industry LTCC material with their corresponding material properties: material Flexural Strength Young’s Modulus Thermal conductivity (MPa) (GPa) (W/mK) G55* 200 110 2.5 951* 320 152 3.0 A6* 210 92 2.0 A473 314 265 16.7 AN242 400 320 150
Optimization analysis: • The thicker the walls are, the narrower the channels are. • As far as the smooth of channel is concerned, we hope a wider channel. • Considering the limitation of machining of LTCC tape, we also hope a wider channel. • The wall cannot be too thin due to stress and displacement. • Base on the above consideration, we choose the material 951, and use the wall with the thickness of 200 µm.
