Summary

It is concluded that manufacturing quality and service will be enhanced from improvements in the heating process to provide better uniformity and temperature control, improvements in joint design, and improvements in tube and coil forming operations. A continuation effort is underway: an alternate braze technology (including heating) will be utilized to ascertain the benefit of uniform heating on braze penetration into the joint, and different overlap ratios and female cup profiles will be evaluated to determine their impact on braze penetration ability and joint integrity.
