 Fin Tubes

Finned Tubes is one of Fin Tubes are produced in the manner as solid fin, except that before the fin strip is formed around the tube, the fin strip is cut (or “serrated”) crosswise from one edge (which will become the outer edge of the fin segments) to within 1/4″ of the other edge, leaving an uncut portion that will become a continuous base for the solid fin segments. The interval between cuts (which determines the segment width after the strip is formed around the tube) may be specified as either 5/32″ or 5/16″. After being cut, the fin strip is held under tension and confined laterally as it is formed around the tube, thereby ensuring forceful contact with the tube surface.  As the fin strip is formed around the tube its outer (serrated) edge spreads, opening the segments like petals of a daisy. A continuous weld is applied at the point where the fin strip first begins to bend around the tube diameter using Vulcan’s unique gas metal arc welding (GMAW) process. This welding process creates the strongest fin to tube attachment in the industry, excellent heat transfer characteristics, low fin-side pressure drop and little to no change in grain micro structure and physical characteristics even when 3%-9% chromium tubes are used. For a given pipe or tube size, the desired heat transfer surface area per unit length of tube can be obtained by specifying the appropriate fin height and/or number of fins per inch of length. The following table shows Vulcan’s manufacturing capabilities for helical serrated finned tube:
 Tube/Pipe Size  1.00″ to 15.75″ OD
 Fin Height  0.3mm to 49.50mm
 Fin Segment Width  5/32″ or 5/16″
 Fin Thickness  0.8 mm ~ 4.0 mm
 Fin Pitch  1 to 20 fins per inch
 Materials  Carbon Steel ,Alloy Steel ,Stainless Steel and Corrosion-resistance Steel.
Application Heat Transfer Equipment including Heat Exchangers, Boilers, Economizers, Super Heaters, Fired Heaters, HRSG, Waste Heat Recovery Systems etc.
Services In addition to finning and tube bending we offer tubing, pipe, cutting, beveling, return bends, elbows, crating, freight and economizer consulting. 
This serrated fin configuration can be used for practically any heat transfer application, and is particularly suited to high temperature, high pressure applications with high fin-side temperatures. In general, the serrated fin configuration is said to transfer heat more efficiently than solid fin since the serrated fin segments allow some lateral (cross-fin) flow of fluid along the tube axis, which serves to increase turbulence, thereby breaking up the thermal boundary layer and increasing heat transfer efficiency.
