Low Fin Tubes/Integral Fin Tubes Material:Typically constructed from materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy or copper, providing durability and resistance to corrosion.
Stainless steel (SS) low finned tubes play a critical role in enhancing the efficiency, durability, and reliability of condensers in power plants.Their use leads to higher plant efficiency, lower maintenance costs, and extended equipment life.
Advantages
| Enhanced Heat Transfer Efficiency | By increased surface area;optimal steam condensation;compact design. |
| Corrosion & Erosion Resistance | Stainless steel resists scaling & fouling;With longer service life;Erosion protection. |
| High-Pressure & Temperature Stability | Maintains structural integrity under high-pressure steam and thermal cycling.
Suitable for both subcritical and supercritical power plant designs. |
| Reduced Fouling & Maintenance | The fin geometry discourages scale deposition and microbial growth.
Lower risk of blockages compared to high-finned tubes. |
Application ( Not limited to the following )
Heat Exchangers & Condensers
Petrochemical/Oil & Gas:
Used in shell-and-tube heat exchangers for viscous fluids(stainless steel resists H₂S, chlorides, and acidic environments).
Power Plants:
Condensers in steam turbines or waste heat recovery systems.
(Steam Surface Condensers,Air-Cooled Condensers (ACC),Hybrid (Wet/Dry) Cooling Systems,Waste Heat Recovery Condensers)
Refrigeration:
Evaporators/condensers in ammonia or Freon-based systems.
Marine & Desalination
Seawater-cooled condensers (resists saltwater corrosion)
Multi-effect distillation (MED) desalination units
HVAC Systems
