1. Introduction

Fin tube heat exchanger is a piece of equipment that helps to increase heat transfer between fluids or gases by employing metal fins to enhance the surface area.

The device allows for compact, high thermal efficiency performance.

2. What Is a Fin Tube Heat Exchanger?

Fin tube heat exchanger features tubes with external fins welded onto them. The fins increase the available surface area to dissipate or absorb heat more efficiently and thus make an excellent option for air-cooled or gas-to-liquid heat exchanger units.
