Turbulence Tubes, Inc.
The number of turns per inch are specified just as threads on bolts. You may also specify the number of convolutions spiraling down the tube; these are called starts. You may exactly match the number of starts and turns per inch to the requirements. But there's something more important... When you want application assistance, our engineering staff is pleased to help. Add your knowledge of your requirement to our wide selection and heat exchanger experience and you'll get the right tube for the job.
To assure compatibility withy your system and substance, Turbulence Tubes may be made of almost any metal. Tubes from 1/8" to 2" diameter are available in lengths up to 16 feet.
You may specify straight tubes, coils, square shapes, or custom shapes. Because the tubes are easily formed by hand, you're free to use them in the most effective shape for the job.
Turbulence Tubes are convoluted tubes used as heat exchangers. The convolutions cause turbulence in the liquid or gas flowing through or around the tube, creating more effective heat transfer. Up to 500% more effective.
The formability of Turbulence Tubes, their spectacular heat transfer characteristics, and their low cost has made them ideally suited to many heat exchanger applications. They have received especially strong support from the medical community as heat exchangers used in the blood oxygenation process.
Other uses include any application requiring superior heat transfer characteristics and disposable convenience. Examples include the Aerospace Industry, Chemical Processes, Electronic Research and IC Manufacturing, Paint Formulation, Biological Research, Environmental Control and Monitoring, Food Processing. Virtually all industries have need of highly efficient heat exchangers.
Custom or specialized versions are available in many different materials. Tube-inside-a-tube versions are limitless. Use them for almost any heat transfer problem. Whether you need to put heat in, or take it out. Our products are the result of 40 years experience in solving heat transfer problems.
