Estimation of Thermodiffusion Influence on Formation of Transition Zones during Brazing

Abstract

The work formulates a particular problem on redistribution of an active element from brazing alloy into brazed materials with due account for thermodiffusion effect. The analysis of the solution has demonstrated that thermodiffusion can facilitate the acceleration of mass transfer from brazing alloy into brazed materials and cause the accumulation of components in the vicinity of contact boundaries.
