Title:
WAVE FINS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/081249
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention relates to wave fins, built inside the heat exchanger case of a heat exchanger, for inducing turbulence in a fluid by directly contacting the fluid and, more particularly, to wave fins capable of greatly increasing the turbulent energy of a fluid upon contact with the fluid, and accelerating the turbulence of the fluid and effectively producing an increase in the heat exchanging efficiency of the fluid. The wave fins according to the present invention have a plurality of hills and a plurality of valleys connected by a plurality of sidewall portions in the widthwise direction, wherein the plurality of sidewall portions defines a plurality of partitioned fluid passages through which fluid flows between the hills and valleys, and wherein the plurality of hills, the plurality of valleys, and the plurality of sidewall portions form a main waveform extending sinusoidally at a first radius of curvature along the lengthwise direction, one or more curved portions are formed in the main waveform of the sidewall portions, and the curved portions are connected so as to be curved in the main waveform at a second radius of curvature.
