Vibration and Stress
Problem Some of the most common forms of vibration and stress induced fatigue result from poor heat exchanger design, or the failure to incorporate suitable safeguards within the heat exchanger design. Sometimes, however, this is due to the limited availability of technologies that allow best-practice heat exchanger designs. For example, ribbon-wound finned tubes and multi-tube cores can be difficult to support in long heat exchangers, resulting in premature failure through fatigue.	Solution ElfinBlock finned cores benefit from a unique combination of attributes that make it more practical to negate many of the negative effects of vibration, particularly in longer heat exchangers:- Integral tube supporting mechanisms Inter-locking fin construction Greater material flexibility These three simple attributes allow the use of the right materials, properly supported or dampened and without the risk of the fin unravelling.
