ASTM A179 Carbon Steel Fin Tube Aluminiun G Fin Type For Dry Cooling Tower
Key Features of ASTM A179 Carbon Steel Fin Tube with Aluminum G-Fin:
Base Tube Material: ASTM A179 specifies low-carbon steel, which provides good thermal conductivity and is suitable for heat transfer applications.
Fin Material: Aluminum fins are commonly used due to their excellent thermal conductivity, lightweight, and corrosion resistance.
G-Fin Type: The "G-fin" refers to a specific type of fin design where the fins are embedded or wound onto the base tube. This design ensures good mechanical bonding between the fin and the tube, enhancing heat transfer efficiency.
Application: These fin tubes are typically used in dry cooling towers, air-cooled heat exchangers, and other systems where efficient heat dissipation is required.
