Radiators made of steel pipes part 4

Special designs of tubular radiators are still used, which include, above all, the so-called. tubular radiators, These radiators are constructed of vertical seamless pipes, welded from the top and bottom of collecting pipes, what is shown schematically in the figure.

Example of a radiator made of steel pipes (so-called. Heat sink). Marks: 1 – solution with one row of pipes (single-post), 2 – solution with two rows of pipes (two-post), 3 – handle, 4 – bracket

Vertical wires can be smooth or equipped with ribs of various shapes. An openwork cover is often added from above, and from the bottom a decorative strip. Both lengths (L), as well as height (H) can be freely shaped. These heaters are most often found in the heights quoted in the table (steam heaters).

Thermal performance of heatsinks used in steam installations (80/20°C)

The table also shows the obtained heat outputs in low-pressure steam heating. Can be used in water or steam heating (at steam pressure up to 16 barium) and in high-rise buildings.
