Longitudinal Finned Tube For Heat Exchangers
Longitudinal I/L or U-finned tubes are produced from resistance welded fins along the length of the tube. The fins first form a U-shaped channel so that each leg of the U forms a fin. Channels are cut to the appropriate length, then oriented and resistance welded in place along the length of the tube. The channels are welded in pairs, diametrically opposed, so the number of fins specified must be a multiple of 4.
 
For a given tube or tube size, the desired heat transfer surface area per unit length of tube can be obtained by specifying the appropriate fin height and number of fins. The number of large fins depends on the outer diameter of the tube - larger OD tubes can accommodate more fins.

Features of Longitudinal Finned Tube
①Increase heat transfer efficiency in effective space.
② Reduce the installation space of the required heat transfer surface
③ Reduce equipment cost and have high operational reliability.
④ Reduce the pressure drop on the pipe side and reduce the operating cost.
⑤ Improve the rigidity of the steel pipe and improve the seismic performance of the steel pipe.
⑥Enhancing heat transfer, reducing flow resistance and metal consumption
 

Application
Longitudinal fin construction is commonly used in shell and tube applications.
The choice of longitudinal finned tube versus helical finned tube seems to depend primarily on geometrical factors. For example, some heater structures consist of finned tubes inserted within other tubes - longitudinal finned tubes are the obvious choice for this type of application. In other cases, users prefer a longitudinal finned tube installation, where the tubes will be in a vertical orientation - the finned orientation facilitates fluid drainage on one side of the finned tubes. Longitudinal finned structures are commonly used in shell and tube applications, such as in double-tube and multi-tube heat exchangers, where the longitudinally finned tubes are telescoping within the holes of a larger tube shell. Heat is transferred between the fluid flowing through the finned tube holes and the fluid flowing through the housing holes. Fluid flowing through the housing holes is forced to flow between the longitudinal fins. In this case, the helical fins would block the flow of fluid rather than allow fluid to flow between the fins.
