FIN TUBES INCREASES THE SURFACE AREA OF HEATING.
SO FOR THE REQUIRED QUANTITY OF HEAT TRANSFER THE EXCHANGER
MAY BE DESIGNED SMALL IN COMPARED WITH FINLESS TUBE
EXCHANGER

Answer / s.shanmugam

Fin tubes are usually used for cooling.As we see in
automobile engines constructed with fins.

Answer / anshuman

it depends on the kind of liquid to be heated and steam
requirment if high heat transfer is required with low
cosumpsion of steam we can use fin tubes

Answer / jagadesh

it is not required to heat up liquid in fin tubes by steam
because liuid has to pass trhough tube side. so if
temperature difference is more steam will undergoes
condensation and will lead high pressure drop and less heat
transfer.

Answer / dp

It depends on the htc values on the shell side. If HTC on
the shell side is higher than the tube side adding tubes
wont make much difference in terms of total heat transfer.
If the HTC value on the tube side is higher than the shell
side, adding fins will enhance the total heat transfer. For
suppose if steam is flowing on the tube side and its phase
changes during the process its good to provide fins over the
tubes. If it is other way adding fins wont make much
difference except increasing cost of the exchanger.

Answer / ahmedcool

FINS ARE USED TO INCREASE SURFACE AREA,IS LIKELY TO
TRANSFER HEAT FROM HOTTER BODY TO COLDER BODY.FINS ARE NOT
REQUIRED IN CASE OF STEAM HEATING.

Answer / amol deshpande

Yes, fin tubes are necessary. Fin tubes increases the heat surface area and reduces the thickness of shell wall required.

Question 89 - A hemocytometer is a device that is used for counting cells. In an engineering experiment, 100 microlitres of cell suspension is diluted with 50 microlitres of Trypan blue dye. Only death cells appear blue in color when stained with the dye. There are 57 cells detected in a hemocytometer, where 5.3 % of them appear blue when the chamber of the meter is placed under a microscope. Each square of a chamber can contain 0.0001 mL of liquid. (a) Calculate the number of viable cells. (b) The cells ocupied 5 squares. Calculate the average number of viable cells / square. (c) Calculate the dilution factor of the cell suspension by using the formula : Dilution = final volume / initial volume. (d) Calculate the concentration of viable cells / mL by using the formula : Concentration = (Average number of viable cells / square) x dilution x (square / volume).

ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 34.8 : Cash flow agreement where the sign + or - of the amounts are start negative and at a point switch to positive and stay positive is referred to has an investment. The cash flow could be denoted by the symbol of [a, b, c ...]. Consider the following two cases in a biochemical factory : (a) You pay $1 today. You receive $1.05, one year from now. (b) You pay $3 today. You receive $5, one year from today. You pay $2, two years from today. Determine if cases (a) and (b) are an investment or a business transaction with cash flow symbol. Find the interest rate r in the cash flow in both cases (a) and (b).
