Chapter 38, Problem 1P

A common problem with brazed or soldered joints is galvanic corrosion, because the joint usually involves dissimilar metals in direct metal-to-metal electrical contact.

  1. For each of the various solder or braze joints described below, determine which material will act as the corroding anode:
  2. Two pieces of low-carbon steel being brazed with a copper-base brazing alloy.
  3. A copper wire being soldered to a steel sheet using lead-tin solder.
  4. Pieces of tungsten carbide being brazed into recesses in a carbon-steel plate.
  5. How do the various lead-free solders compare to the conventional lead-tin solders with regard to their potential for galvanic corrosion?
  6. If galvanic corrosion becomes a significant and chronic problem in a brazed assembly, what changes might you suggest that could possibly reduce or eliminate the problem?

A short brass cyclinder (denisty=8530 kg/m^3, cp=0.389 kJ/kgK, k=110 W/mK, and alpha=3.39*10^-5 m^2/s) of diameter 4 cm and height 20 cm is initially at uniform temperature of 150 degrees C. The cylinder is now placed in atmospheric air at 20 degrees C, where heat transfer takes place by convection with a heat transfer coefficent of 40 W/m^2K. Calculate (a) the center temp of the cylinder, (b) the center temp of the top surface of the cylinder, and (c) the total heat transfer from the cylinder 15 min after the start of the cooling. Solve this problem using the analytical one term approximation method.
A 6 cm high rectangular ice block (k=2.22 W/mK, and alpha=0.124*10^-7 m^2/s) initially at -18 degrees C is placed on a table on its square base 4 cm by 4cm in size in a room at 18 degrees C. The heat transfer coefficent on the exposed surfaces of the ice block is 12 W/m^2K. Disregarding any heat transfer from the base to the table, determine how long it will be before the ice block starts melting. Where on the ice block will the first liquid droplets appear? Solve this problem using the analytical one-term approximation method.
Consider a piece of steel undergoing a decarburization process at 925 degrees C. the mass diffusivity of carbon in steel at 925 degrees C is 1*10^-7 cm^2/s. Determine the depth below the surface of the steel at which the concentration of carbon is reduced to 40 percent from its initial value as a result of the decarburization process for (a) an hour and (b) 10 hours. Assume the concnetration of carbon at the surface is zero throughout the decarburization process.
