Finned tube heat exchanger and method of manufacture

摘要

A heat exchanger of the finned tube type in which the tubing is formed in a single, continuous length which is bent into a zigzagged or serpentine shape and then inserted through elongated slots formed in a series of fin plates. The invention provides for the production of heat exchangers in which the spacing between tube passes through the heat exchanger, and so the flow pattern of the refrigerant, may be varied to meet the design considerations of the particular heat exchanger application.
