                        Finned Tube Heat Exchangers

Product Description:

Finned Tube Heat Exchangers for applications that require high heat transfer area for relatively low heat transfer fluids.  The advantages of using these heat exchangers are that they are compact.  Our integrally this exchangers can be used in refrigeration condensers as well as for oil cooling applications. The typical applications are for air heating, cooling.  The fins are either plate fins or helically wound depending upon the quality of air and the temperature.  The capacities range from 1000 kcal/hr to 1,000,000 kcal/hr

Tipo  manufactured for this type of  heat exchangers are with copper, aluminum, stainless steel, admiralty brass, copra-nickel or carbon steel.  Apart from this, these strongly constructed exchangers are widely used in different applications like air laden with abrasive particles,  corrosive fluids and air heating with steam and designed for special custom-built applications.

Applications:

  1. Its often used in power plants as an exhaust gas heat exchanger to increase the efficiency factor.  Further applications in power plants are the preheating of combustion air as well as the condensation of exhaust steam from steam or ORC turbines.
  2. In industrial dryers finned tube heat exchangers will be used for heating of air by hot water, steam or thermal oil in large quantities.
  3. In many industrial production processes, such as for the air conditioning of buildings, this model  heat exchangers are used as an air cooler for cooling down or re-cooling of liquids.  Due to the problems with Legionella, the high consumption of fresh water, as well as the elaborate water treatment, closed cooling circuits with its will be used instead of cooling towers with open water circuit.

Features For Finned Tube Heat Exchangers:

  • More surface area per square feet .
  • Lower air resistance, resulting in less power to deliver the requires C.F.M.
  • Reduction in number of tubes for given B.T.U. transfer per rate area, resulting in fuel saving
  • Light weight easier handling
  • More fins per inch can be incorporated on entire tube length

Advantages

  1. Maximum transmission quality.
  2. High condensation rate.
  3. Wide application and temperature spectrum (range).
  4. Ideal for gas-liquid or gas-vapor heat transfer.
  5. Available as stainless steel types.
  6. Highest reliability of operation through extensive quality inspection.
