Application of response surface methodology for optimization of hybrid friction diffusion bonding of tube-to-tube-sheet connections in coil-wound heat exchangers

This study evaluates the application of a new solid state joining process referred to as hybrid friction diffusion bonding. Based on heat processing and pressure, accelerated diffusion joins the materials. In the present study, two aluminum alloys were welded and characterized using leak tightness t...
