Heat Recovery Exchanger Finned Tube Heat Exchanger

When the finned tube heat exchanger is used as a heat recovery heat exchanger, its function is to recover the waste or residual heat in the system, improve the efficiency of energy utilisation and reduce energy consumption.

The design of the finned tube increases the heat transfer area and thus enhances the heat transfer effect. It can be used for heat recovery in a variety of industrial and commercial applications, such as HVAC systems, waste heat recovery in industrial processes, etc.

The common materials used for heat recovery heat exchanger finned tubes are mainly the following:

Copper: good thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance, but relatively high cost.

Aluminium: better thermal conductivity, light weight, relatively low price, is one of the more commonly used materials.

Stainless steel: excellent corrosion resistance and strength, suitable for some harsh working environment.

Carbon steel: high strength, relatively low price, but relatively weak corrosion resistance.

Titanium: excellent corrosion resistance, used in some special corrosive environment, but the cost is higher.

Different materials in the thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, strength and cost, etc. have their own characteristics, the specific choice of which material, according to the heat recovery heat exchanger working conditions, the use of the environment and economic costs and other factors to consider.

Heat recovery heat exchanger finned tubes have a wide range of applications, including but not limited to the following areas

HVAC system: in the air-conditioning systems of large commercial buildings, office buildings and factories, it is used to recover the heat in the discharged air, thus reducing energy consumption.

Industrial production: such as chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical and food processing industries, it can recover the waste heat generated in the industrial process and be used to preheat feed materials, heat water or other media.

Energy field: thermal power plants, boiler rooms and other places, can recover energy from waste heat to improve the efficiency of energy use.

Automotive industry: heat recovery of vehicle exhaust to improve fuel utilisation and reduce emissions.

Ship and marine engineering: for waste heat recovery from ship engines to optimise energy consumption.

Data centres: Recovery of heat generated by server cooling for other uses or auxiliary air-conditioning systems.

Refrigeration and cryogenic engineering: heat recovery in refrigeration systems to improve the overall performance of the system.

Iron and Steel Metallurgy: Recovering high temperature waste heat in the steel production process.
