Tube fin heat exchangers

Eaton tube fin heat exchangers are a versatile heat transfer device designed to efficiently exchange heat between two fluids while minimizing pressure drop and maximizing heat transfer area using a tube and fin construction. Tube fin constructions are typically used for liquid to air heat transport.

How do tube fin heat exchangers work?

Tube fin heat exchangers, also called finned coil heat exchangers, consist of tubes that pass through a dense fin stack that is mechanically supported by a mounting frame. Fluid passes through the tube coils, conducts heat to the fins and dissipates heat to air forced through the heat exchanger.

Tube Fin Heat Exchangers as Liquid to Air Heat Exchangers

In liquid cooling systems, tube fin heat exchangers function as liquid to air heat exchangers, rejecting heat from the coolant loop into the surrounding airstream. This makes them a common choice for applications where facility water is not available and heat must be dissipated to air. Eaton tube fin heat exchangers are designed to integrate directly with liquid cooling loops, cold plates, and chillers as part of a complete thermal management system.

Finned Tube Heat Exchanger Construction

A finned tube heat exchanger uses a matrix of fins bonded or mechanically attached to the outer surface of tubes to increase the effective heat transfer area. Eaton fin tube heat exchangers are available with plain, louvered, or corrugated fin patterns and a choice of tube materials including copper, stainless steel, and aluminum to suit fluid compatibility and environmental requirements.

Benefits of using Eaton Boyd Thermal tube fin heat exchangers

Our standard tube fin heat exchanger options include copper and stainless steel, but we’re able to utilize aluminum, nickel and cupronickel to meet specific environmental needs. Our team can utilize a variety of fin patterns, bend densities, mounting structures, and pipe connections to optimize to your project parameters. We can fabricate installation-ready heat exchangers with paint or coatings, including MilSpec rated coatings. Whether the requirement is a standard fin tube heat exchanger or a fully custom finned tube heat exchanger with specialist coatings, Boyd Thermal by Eaton engineers the right solution for the application.
