Finned tubes heat exchangers can be applied in various household as well as industrial machineries. Car radiator also used finned tube heat exchangers which cools the hot water in the tubes when air passes through it. This is a crossflow process.
For industrial purposes, finned tube heat exchangers are generally used to heat or cool the air and other gases. Finned tubes have fins attached to its exterior areas. Hence, with the increase in the outside area, the heat transfer rate also increases. Moreover, in the long run, it abbreviates the overall equipment size.
