Stainless steel heat exchanger tubes and copper heat exchanger tubes Differences and advantages

The difference between stainless steel tube heat exchangers and copper tube heat exchangers can be seen literally. The materials used are different, one is stainless steel and the other is made of copper. This is the difference in material. When we choose these two types of tubes, we will consider the heat transfer performance and corrosion resistance.

We all know that copper tubes are less prone to fouling than stainless steel tubes. Foreign commercial boilers do not use water to treat equipment, but their life span is as long as 15 years. The reason is that although water can also form scale on the copper pipe wall, it produces only flocculent scale. In this case, as long as the water flow rate is increased, the scale cannot be precipitated.

The second is to consider the heat transfer performance. The thermal conductivity of copper is higher than that of stainless steel, so the heat transfer coefficient of copper tubes of the same shape is higher than that of stainless steel tubes. Therefore, the heat exchange tubes used in the evaporator condenser are basically made of copper.

The Third, the strength of stainless steel is higher than that of copper, so now we see that the plate heat exchanger plate is stainless steel, but the original plate is also copper. Of course, the price of copper is much higher than that of stainless steel.

When we choose a heat exchanger, we must consider various factors. Now there are many stainless steel heat exchangers in the market, which has made the stainless steel heat exchanger tube industry develop a lot.

Saky Steel has a large number of heat exchanger special tubes with GB13296-2013 standard and GB/T21833-2008 standard all year round; specifications: 38*2, 38*1.5, 32*2, 32*1.5, 25*2.5, 25*2, 25 *1.5, 19*2, 19*1.5 length up to 30 meters, materials: TP304, 304L, TP316L, F321, S22053, 310S, can be cut to any size, and can make bellows, bellows, snake for customers Type tube, mosquito-repellent coil, T-threaded tube, finned tube, U-shaped tube, corrugated U-shaped tube and U-shaped part solid solution.
