Abstract

The heat exchanger element H-type finned tube has a high enhancement of heat transfer and excellent self-cleaning property and has evident effect in the boiler renovation, especially in the field of flue gas waste heat recovery. In this paper, the heat transfer and resistance characteristics of H-type finned tube are studied by the experimental system of open high-temperature wind tunnel. The effects of fin width, fin height, fin pitch and air velocity on fin efficiency, convective heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop are examined. It is found that as air velocity, fin height and fin width increase, fin efficiency decreases. Convective heat transfer coefficient is proportional to fin pitch but inversely proportional to fin height and fin width. Pressure drop increases with the increase of fin height and fin width. Then the correlations of fin efficiency, Nu and Eu are fitted.
