Stainless Steels Welded U Longitudinal finned tube

‌What is Stainless Steels U Longitudinal Finned Tube?‌

A longitudinal finned tube is a heat transfer enhancement component formed by adding metal fins axially (longitudinally) along the surface of a base tube. Its core characteristics and applications are as follows:

나는. Stainless Steels U Longitudinal Finned Tube Structure and Principle

1. ‌Basic Construction‌

   • Uses a metal base tube (carbon steel, 스테인리스, etc.) as the core, with longitudinally arranged fins (rectangular, corrugated, etc.) welded or rolled onto its outer surface 14.
   • Fins typically have a height of 5–30mm, thickness of 0.2–0.5mm, and spacing of 3.5–40mm. They significantly increase the heat transfer area (multiple times that of a bare tube) to boost thermal conduction efficiency 513.

2. ‌Heat Transfer Mechanism‌

   • Heat transfers from the fluid inside the tube (steam, thermal oil, etc.) through the base tube to the fins, then dissipates to the external medium (예), air) via convection/radiation 912.
   • The longitudinal design enables uniform heat transfer along the tube length, minimizing flow dead zones, making it suitable for high-flow fluids 23.

2 세. Stainless Steels U Longitudinal Finned Tube Core Advantages

• ‌High-Efficiency Heat Transfer:‌ Fins significantly enlarge the heat dissipation area, increasing the convective heat transfer coefficient by 40%–60% compared to bare tubes, especially effective under forced convection 910.
• ‌Low Flow Resistance:‌ The longitudinal structure reduces fluid turbulence; resistance is lower than helical finned tubes, suitable for complex conditions like dusty flue gas 37.
• ‌내식성:‌ Surfaces can be galvanized or made from stainless steel, extending service life in humid/corrosive environments 411.
• ‌High Structural Strength:‌ Processes like high-frequency welding ensure strong bonding between fins and base tubes, withstanding high pressure and temperature 412.

정맥. Stainless Steels U Longitudinal Finned Tube Typical Application Scenarios

1. ‌Industrial Sector‌
   • ‌Waste Heat Recovery:‌ Used in flue gas/exhaust waste heat recovery systems to reduce energy consumption 37.
   • ‌Process Heat Transfer:‌ Core heat transfer element in heaters and coolers for petroleum and chemical industries 312.
2. ‌Civilian Sector‌
   • ‌Heating Systems:‌ Steel-aluminum composite longitudinal finned tube radiators, combining high thermal conductivity and structural strength, suitable for residential/commercial heating 213.
   • ‌Air Heaters:‌ Rapidly heat indoor air via forced convection 49.

V. Stainless Steels U Longitudinal Finned Tube Key Parameters for Selection

• ‌Base Tube Specifications:‌ Common outer diameters: 18밀리미터, 25밀리미터, 32밀리미터 (carbon steel/stainless steel seamless tubes) 13.
• ‌핀 높이:‌ 10mm, 12.5밀리미터, 15밀리미터 (selected based on heat transfer requirements and space constraints) 13.
• ‌Fin Pitch (Spacing):‌ Too small impedes airflow; too large reduces heat dissipation area. Requires balancing flow resistance and heat transfer efficiency 913.
