Principle and characteristics of T-fin tube

Principle and characteristics of T-fin tube
1, the principle of T finned tube
T-finned tube is formed after the rolling process is one kind of efficient heat transfer tubes by the light pipe. Its structural feature is to form a series of spiral annular T-shaped tunnels on the outer surface of the pipe. When heat medium outside the tube is formed in a tunnel in a series of bubble nuclei, four weeks in a heated state to a mountain tunnel chamber, the rapid expansion of the bubble nucleus lumen is filled, continuously heated rapidly increases the inner pressure of the bubble, a fine bubble from the tube surface to promote Squirting quickly in the seam. When injecting of bubbles with a large force erosion site, and a certain partial vacuum, so that the surrounding temperature of the liquid pouring into the lower T-shaped tunnel, the formation of continuous boiling. In this boiling mode, the unit surface area r} takes away much more heat per unit time than the light pipe, and this type of pipe has a higher boiling heat transfer capacity.
2, the characteristics of T finned tube
Heat transfer effect. In R113T boiling tube heat transfer coefficient of the light pipe than 1.6 times a 3.3 times higher. Conventional optical tube heat exchanger, or only when the bubble point of the high boiling temperature of the hot medium of ten 12 ℃ a cold medium 15 ℃, blowing cold medium will boil. The T-type finned tube heat exchanger requires only a temperature difference of 2 ° C to 4 ° C, the cold medium can boil, and the bubble is fine, continuous and fast, forming a unique advantage compared with the light pipe.
The single tube experiment with Freon 11 as the medium shows that the heat transfer coefficient of the T-tube is up to 10 times that of the light pipe, and the experiment results of the small tube bundle with liquid ammonia as the medium, the total heat transfer coefficient is 2.2 times that of the light pipe; The industrial reboiler calibration of C3 and C4 hydrocarbon separation towers shows that at low load, the total heat transfer coefficient of the T-tube is 50% higher than that of the smooth tube and 99% higher at high load.
3.T finned tubes are less expensive than aluminum porous surface heat transfer tubes.
Because the gas-liquid disturbance inside the tunnel is very intense and the gas is ejected at high speed along the T-slot, it is not easy to scale even in the T-slot or the outer surface of the pipe. This ensures that the equipment can be used for a long time without heat transfer effect. The effect of scaling.

What is tube sheet layout?

What is tube sheet layout? A tube sheet is a component used in shell and tube heat exchangers and other types of heat transfer equipment. It is a flat plate with holes drilled in it, through which tubes are inserted and secured. The tube sheet serves as a barrier between the two fluids, allowing heat to be transferred from one to the other. The layout of the tube sheet depends on the design of the heat exchanger, which includes the number of tubes, the size of the tubes, and the spacing between the tubes. The layout is typically determined using computer-aided design (CAD) software, which can optimize the placement of the tubes to achieve the desired heat transfer performance. In general, the tubes are arranged in a triangular or square pattern on the tube sheet. The triangular pattern is often preferred because it provides better support for the tubes and reduces the risk of vibration and damage. The spacing between the tubes is also important, as it affects the flow rate and pressure...

What is aluminum finned tubes?

What is aluminum finned tubes? Aluminum finned tubes are a type of finned tube air heat exchanger that uses aluminum fins attached to a tube made of a different material, such as copper or steel. The aluminum fins are typically extruded or formed to increase the surface area of the tube, which in turn increases the efficiency of heat transfer. Aluminum finned tubes are commonly used in HVAC systems, as well as in industrial and power plant applications. They are preferred over other types of finned tubes in some applications because they are lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and have good thermal conductivity. Additionally, aluminum is relatively inexpensive compared to other metals commonly used in heat exchangers, such as copper and stainless steel. The specific properties of aluminum finned tubes can vary depending on the alloy used to make the fins. For example, aluminum fins made from alloys such as 6061 and 3003 have good corrosion resistance and thermal conductivity, while those...

ASTM A213 T22 extruded finned tube?

  What is ASTM A213 T22 extruded finned tube? ASTM A213 T22 extruded finned tube is a heat exchanger tube with extruded aluminum fins on the outside surface, made from T22 grade steel, which is an alloy steel per ASTM A213 standard. The fins are extruded from the base tube, which increases the surface area and enhances heat transfer efficiency. These finned tubes are typically used in high-temperature and high-pressure applications, such as boilers, superheaters, and heat exchangers in power plants or industrial settings. The T22 grade steel has good high-temperature strength and resistance to corrosion and oxidation. Why use ASTM A213 T22 extruded finned tube? ASTM A213 T22  extruded finned tubes  are used in applications where high-temperature and high-pressure resistance is required, such as in boilers and heat exchangers. The use of an extruded finned tube made of this material can improve the heat transfer rate by increasing the surface area of the tube, which enhanc...
