Hoffman Process, Inc. designs and provides transition type finned tube heat exchangers for Air/Gas applications where pressure drop and space are critical. Gas is directed across a bank of finned tubes that provide up to 25 times the bare tube heat transfer surface area. By proper design, pressure drop may be limited to a few inches of water column or less. Air/gas temperatures to 1500°F can be processed with proper selection of the fin and tube materials, and method of bonding the fin to the tube.
