[0002] Tantalum-tungsten alloy is expensive, so when used in heat exchanger tubesheets, a layer of tantalum-tungsten alloy is typically used as the surface layer of the tubesheet, while the base layer is made of carbon steel. Because the melting point of tantalum-tungsten alloy is higher than that of carbon steel, the tubesheet must be cooled when welding the surface layer to the heat exchange tubes to prevent the base layer from deforming due to the high welding temperature, which could affect the overall flatness of the tubesheet.
[0003] Currently, cooling the tube sheet during welding typically involves installing heat sinks on the back of the tube sheet weld area to distribute heat, or employing intermittent welding. However, heat sinks provide poor active heat dissipation, while intermittent welding results in low welding efficiency, failing to meet welding requirements. Utility Model Content
