YUHONG GROUP-ASME SA179 Low Fin tube for cooling system
 

• Heat exchangers: They are commonly used in heat exchangers such as shell - and - tube heat exchangers. The low - fin structure increases the heat transfer area, enhancing the heat transfer efficiency between the fluid inside and outside the tube. This is beneficial for applications like cooling lubricating oil in industrial machinery, heating or cooling process fluids in chemical plants, and recovering waste heat from exhaust gases in power plants.
• Boilers: In boilers, carbon steel low fin tubes are used to improve the heat transfer from the combustion gases to the water or steam inside the tubes. This helps in increasing the efficiency of steam generation, reducing fuel consumption, and improving the overall performance of the boiler system. They are suitable for both industrial boilers and some small - to - medium - sized power generation boilers.
• Air - conditioning and refrigeration systems: These tubes can be found in evaporators and condensers of air - conditioning and refrigeration units. The enhanced heat transfer ability of the low fin tubes allows for more efficient heat exchange between the refrigerant and the surrounding air or water, improving the energy efficiency and cooling/heating capacity of the systems.
• Petrochemical industry: In petrochemical plants, they are used in processes such as distillation, where heat exchange is crucial for separating different components of crude oil or other chemical mixtures. The low fin tubes help in achieving better heat transfer, which is essential for maintaining the desired process temperatures and improving the separation efficiency.
• Power generation: Besides waste heat recovery, they are also used in some power plant processes such as cooling the generator coolant or in the pre - heating of feedwater. The improved heat transfer characteristics of the low fin tubes contribute to the overall efficiency and reliability of the power generation process.
