Aluminum Finned Tubes

L-Foot Tension Wound Finned Tubes

Aluminum L-Foot Tension Wound Finned Tubes are an economical solution for applications requiring greater resistance to vibration and heat cycling typical of air cooled heat exchangers. The L-Foot design mechanically locks the fins and provides broader contact surface between tube and fin.
 
Below you will see common L-Foot Tension Wound Finned Tube configurations:
Tube Sizes: 1/2″ O.D. to 2″ O.D.
Fin Heights: 1/4″ to 5/8″
Fin Pitch: 4 to 13 fins per inch
Temperature: Up to 300°F
 
Edge Tension Wound Finned Tubes offer a low cost solution for low to moderate temperature applications. The surface of the tube is knurled as the fin is wound tightly on edge around the O.D. of a tube to ensure proper fin to tube contact.
 
Edge Tension Wound Finned Tubes are commonly used in applications with small amounts of vibration and metal temperatures up to 250° Fahrenheit.
Tube Sizes: 1/2″ O.D. to 2″ O.D.
Fin Heights: 1/4″ to 1″
Fin Pitch: 4 to 13 fins per inch
 
Embedded Fin Tubes offer solutions where higher temperatures, continuous thermal cycling and tube vibration due to high velocity air streams can cause failures. The fin is mechanically embedded into a groove that is plowed in the tube O.D. and is locked into place by rolls that force the groove to tightly close around the fin base.
 
Tube Sizes: 9/16″ O.D. to 2″ O.D.
Fin Heights: 1/4″ to 5/8″
Fin Pitch: 5 to 13 fins per inch
 
Aluminum Finned Tubes

Extruded Finned Tubes
Extruded Finned Tubes provide the greatest resistance to atmospheric corrosion. The aluminum fin material completely encloses the tube, except at the ends where a tube coating can be applied. Where atmospheric corrosion is present and when operated within design temperature limits, extruded finned tubes provide the most stable performance over time as compared to the other fin types. The fin is rolled from an outer aluminum tube by a process using pressure to create a rolled “pressure bond” between the liner tube and fins.
 
Extruded Finned Tubes are commonly used in applications with temperatures up to 550 degrees Fahrenheit.
Tube Sizes: 1″ O.D. to 1 1/4″ O.D.
Fin Heights: 1/2″ to 5/8″
Fin Pitch: 8 to 11 fins per inch
 
Perforated Finned Tubes maximize heat transfer by increasing the air flow across the finned area of the tube. Uniform perforations are created in the fin as it passes through the machine. These perforations are arranged like spokes of a wheel and can manufactured in Embedded and L-Foot fin configurations. Perforated Fins can manufactured aluminum or copper fin.
 
Tube Sizes: 9/16″ O.D. to 2″ O.D.
Fin Heights: 1/4″ to 1″
Fin Pitch: 4 to 13 fins per inch

What is membrane water wall panel?

What is membrane water wall panel? The Membrane water wall pane l is the main heating part of the boiler, which is composed of several rows of steel tubes, distributed around the boiler furnace. Its interior is flowing water or steam, and the outside receives the heat from the flame in the boiler furnace. It mainly absorbs the radiant heat of high-temperature combustion products in the furnace, in which the working medium rises and evaporates. Membrane water wall panel refers to the water wall composed of a gas tight pipe panel welded by flat steel and tubes. The membrane water wall can ensure the furnace has good tightness and can significantly reduce the air leakage coefficient of the furnace and improve the combustion conditions in the furnace for negative pressure boilers. The utility model can increase the effective radiation heating area, thereby saving the steel consumption. Advantages of Membrane water wall panel (1) The membrane water wall has the most complete protective effe...

What is cast-iron gilled tube economizer?

What is cast-iron gilled tube economizer? A cast-iron gilled tube economizer is a heat exchanger used in boilers to increase their thermal efficiency. It consists of a series of tubes made of cast iron, with fins or gills attached to the outside of the tubes. The gills increase the surface area of the tubes, which allows for more heat transfer to occur. The economizer works by preheating the water that enters the boiler using the heat from the flue gases that are leaving the boiler. The water flows through the tubes, which are heated by the hot gases passing over them. This preheated water then enters the boiler, reducing the amount of fuel needed to heat the water to the desired temperature. Cast iron is a popular material for  gilled tube economizers  due to its durability and resistance to corrosion. The gills on the tubes increase the surface area of the tubes, which increases the amount of heat that can be transferred from the flue gases to the water. This increased heat ...
