Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A finned-tube heat transfer device ( 1 ) has a housing ( 2 ) enclosing a first flow path ( 3 ) for a first fluid with a first inlet ( 4 ) and a first outlet ( 5 ). A tube system ( 9 ) forms a second flow path ( 10 ) for a second fluid with a second inlet ( 11 ) and a second outlet ( 12 ) and which is coupled to the first flow path ( 3 ) in the housing ( 2 ) in a heat transferring manner. The tube system ( 9 ) has a multitude of tubes ( 13 ) that are parallel to one another, which extend between two housing walls ( 7 ) laterally delimiting the first flow path ( 3 ). The tubes are provided with fins ( 14 ), within the first flow path ( 3 ), which are fluidically interconnected outside the first flow path ( 3 ). A simplified producability can be achieved if the fluidic connection of the tubes ( 13 ) is effected within the two housing walls ( 7 ).
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A finned-tube heat transfer device comprising: a housing enclosing a first flow path in the circumferential direction with the first flow path penetrating the housing in the longitudinal direction of the housing, said housing having longitudinal ends comprising a first inlet for a first fluid and a first outlet for the first fluid, said first flow path being laterally delimited by two housing walls; and a tube system forming a second flow path for a second…
