Product information
When steam comes into contact with a wall that is lower than its saturation temperature, it will condense into a liquid and release the latent heat of vaporization and transfer it to the wall. This heat exchange process is called condensation heat transfer and is generally divided into: film condensation and droplet condensation. The condensation effect can be enhanced by mechanical processing on the surface of the light pipe.
1. Strengthen heat transfer mechanism
Through mechanical processing and other methods, shapes such as spiral grooves on the surface of the heat transfer element are added to destroy the surface condensation liquid film, accelerate condensation liquid discharge, reduce condensation thermal resistance, and enhance condensation heat transfer. Influencing factors include: medium characteristics, flow form, non-condensable gas content, surface structural parameters of heat transfer elements, heat exchange tube arrangement, etc.
2. Core components
1)Threaded pipe
High-efficiency low-fin tubes process various types of fin structures on the surface of the heat exchange tube to accelerate the discharge of condensate and accelerate condensation.
2) LAN-TC, LAN-C tube (embossed tube)
Lanke High-tech Self-developed Management
The external condensation heat transfer coefficient of LAN-C tube is about 1.2 to 1.5 times that of low rib tube (ordinary threaded tube); the external condensation heat transfer coefficient of LAN-TC tube is about 1.1 to 1.3 times that of low rib tube (ordinary threaded tube).
3. Performance advantages
High heat transfer coefficient: about 2 to 4 times that of light pipes.
Small pressure drop: about 50 to 80% of that of light pipes.
Small footprint: about 60 to 80% of that of light pipes.
The overall weight of the equipment is small: about 60 to 80% of that of light pipes.
Equipment investment is low: about 50 to 80% of that of light pipes.
