- Application Strength/ Thermal Function: The use of 6061 Aluminium fin tubes is undertaken when mechanical strength is of significance as compared to heat transfer efficiency. In contrast to the softer grades of aluminium, 6061 is structurally rigid to load, and can be used in finned tube assemblies which are subject to vibration, motion or mounting stresses during operation.
- Manufacturing & Fin Attachment Characteristics: The extrusion or controlled mechanical finning methods are commonly employed to generate these fin tubes so that there is good bonding of the fins with the tube. Its excellent machinability enables the fin geometry to be fine and the spacing between fins to be uniform which contributes to maintaining the uniformity of airflow and stability of thermal performance when compactly designing a heat exchanger.
- Material Properties of AA 6061: Aluminium 6061 is a heat-treatable alloy that has magnesium and silicon, and it has higher yield strength and fatigue strength compared to 3000-series alloy. Corrosion resistance is also reasonable in the atmosphere and the industry environment and is therefore applicable in the semi-outdoor and indoor applications.
- Service Advantages & Operational Reliability: 6061 Aluminium fin tubes will give good performance in areas that relate to thermal cycling and mechanical handling. They are stronger, so the risk of fin damage during transporting, installation and maintenance processes is lower, which also leads to the increased service life and the decrease in downtime in hard-working industrial and transport-oriented cooling systems.
Client Project Report of 6061 Aluminium Fin Tube
| Product Supplied | Quantity | Cities (India) |
|---|---|---|
| 6061 Aluminium Fin Tubes for Structural Heat Exchanger Frames | 169 Pieces | Pune |
| 6061 Aluminium Fin Tubes for Mobile Cooling Equipment | 204 Pieces | Sanand |
| 6061 Aluminium Fin Tubes for Power Electronics Cooling | 187 Pieces | Bengaluru |
| 6061 Aluminium Fin Tubes for Transport Industry Radiators | 162 Pieces | Pantnagar |
The reason behind the choice of 6061 aluminium fin tubes is when a balance between mechanical strength and less overall weight in thermal equipment is needed. The high machinability and structural integrity of the alloy make it hold on to finish and integrity of the fins throughout the handling steps, expansion and extended service. The height of the fin and tube thickness are usually fixed according to airflow velocity and vibration threshold and not just according to heat transfer requirement. When comparing systems, we have seen Stainless Steel Fin Tube offerings typically being considered together with aluminium when working with higher operating temperatures or rougher media where the designer can select between strength factor and weight saving.
