Spacer for tubular bundles in heat exchangers comprises two parts made from rigid material beveled around tubes of a heat exchanger and contacting the tubes in one plane

摘要

Spacer comprises two parts (36, 38) made from rigid material beveled around tubes of a heat exchanger and contacting the tubes in one plane. The contact sites are in the plane of the tube axes. Preferred Features: The spacer is molded from two sheet metal parts which are bent producing semi-cylindrical holders having an inner radius which corresponds with the outer radius of the tubes. Two of the holders lie opposite each other so that the tubes are guided within the holders.
