HEAT TRANSFER AND PRESSURE DROP OF TYPICAL AIR COOLER FINNED TUBES.
Author(s) : ECKELS P. W., RABAS T. J.
Type of article: Article
Summary
THE HEAT TRANSFER AND PRESSURE DROP PERFORMANCE OF HEAT EXCHANGERS FABRICATED FROM HELICALLY WRAPPED FINNED TUBES WITH AN EQUILATERAL TRIANGULAR PITCH ARRANGEMENT ARE REPORTED FOR ONE THROUGH FIVE ROWS. TWO FINNED TUBE TYPES WERE TESTED, ONE WITH A < T > FOOT AND THE OTHER WITH AN OVERLAPPED < L > FOOT. THE TUBE DIAMETER WAS 25.4 MILLIMETERS ; THE FIN HEIGHT WAS 15.87 MILLIMETERS ; THE FIN NUMBER WAS 410/METRE ; AND THE FIN-TIP CLEARANCE WAS 6.35 MILLIMETERS. NO DIFFERENCE IN PERFORMANCE OF THE TWO FINNED TUBE TYPES COULD BE DETECTED. THE HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENT AND PRESSURE DROP INCREASE WITH THE NUMBER OF TUBE ROWS.
