Corrugated Tube|Stainless Steel

What is stainless steel corrugated tube?

Stainless steel corrugated tubes are tubes made of stainless steel with a corrugated surface. They are typically used for conveying fluids in industrial and commercial applications where high-pressure and high-temperature resistance are required.

The corrugated surface of the tube provides added strength and flexibility, allowing it to withstand higher pressures and temperatures than smooth-walled tubes. This design also reduces the risk of kinking, which can cause blockages or other problems in fluid transfer applications.

Stainless steel corrugated tubes are often used in industries such as petrochemical, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, and automotive. They are also commonly used in HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) systems for their resistance to corrosion and their ability to withstand extreme temperatures.

Why choose stainless steel corrugated tube?

The corrugated tube is a cylindrical thin-walled elastic shell with transverse corrugations. The stainless steel corrugated heat exchange tube is a new type of high-efficiency heat exchange tube that replaces the plain tube. It has strong corrosion resistance, longer life, and no pitting. , Low price and other advantages. Corrugated tubes are used as elastic sensitive components of instruments and meters and connecting components of various pipelines. They are now widely used in engineering equipment such as mining, petroleum, chemical, metallurgy, electric power, heat, navigation, aerospace, etc. The role of vibration absorption, noise reduction, energy storage, thermal compensation and medium isolation.

The heat transfer coefficient is an important technical indicator of heat exchange equipment. Strengthening the convective heat transfer of the heat exchange surface is an effective measure to improve the heat transfer coefficient. The enhanced heat transfer of the corrugated tube heat exchanger is realized by its unique ultra-thin-wall corrugated tube. The corrugated tube is a thin-walled tube that is continuously tangent to large and small arcs and whose inner shape is like a corrugated. The height difference between the wave troughs causes the fluid to be strongly disturbed. This disturbance comes from the three-dimensional movement of the fluid inside and outside the tube. Therefore, the degree of disturbance is more intense and thorough. Even if the fluid velocity is very low, it can make it into a turbulent state. The thin wall has a small temperature gradient, which greatly reduces the thermal resistance of the tube wall and improves the heat transfer coefficient inside and outside the tube, thereby increasing the overall heat transfer coefficient.

In order to improve heat transfer performance of vertical ammonia condenser,adopts spiral corrugated steel tube as the enhanced heat transfer element. Studies on heat transfer enhancement of spirally corrugated tube and its application to boilers.

Overall, stainless steel corrugated tubes are a reliable and durable solution for fluid transfer applications where strength and flexibility are critical.
