Fin Tubes- Wire Wound (Pin) Fin Tubes with stainless steel, copper and galvanized wire fins

Turbulators - Wire Wound, Turbulators (Inserts)soldered to tubes

Wire wound root soldered turbulators with fin heights between 2 mm to 28 mm are manufactured at TAAM engineering. The insert or turbulator fin material is Copper, Stainless Steel, Galvanized Steel.

We supply fin tubes  provided with turbulators inside to enhance tube side heat transfer coefficient for use in air cooled oil coolers.

Infinite combinations of loops per turn and turns per foot are possible on our machines.

Solders used withstand tube wall temperatures   up to 175 deg C. Special solders are used for temperatures between 175 C and 290 C. Wire wound tubes are not suitable foe tube wall temperatures exceeding 290 C.

Shown below is a  wire wound fin tube with wire turbulator

Wire wound turbulators consists of a base rod over which  oval or near rectangular loops formed of wire which are wound helically  with root soldering of foot of every loop to the rod.

The loop of wire creates greater turbulence thereby increasing the heat transfer coefficient. The periphery of the turbulators are soldered to the inner diameter of the base tube.

For most applications, wire wound turbulators make it possible to design a much compact heat exchanger coupled with lower pressure drop compared to twisted or most other form of turbulators.
