Tube-fin radiators and Plate-fin radiators are two common types of heat exchangers, differing significantly in their structure and typical applications. Tube-Fin Radiator PA Radiator Structural Characteristics: Cooling Tubes: Primarily composed of flattened cooling tubes through which the coolant flows. Heat Dissipation Fins: Wavy or folded fins are placed between the cooling tubes, increasing the heat transfer surface area. Tanks: Typically has two tanks (either side or top/bottom) that connect the cooling tubes, forming a circulation path for the coolant. Materials: Commonly made from copper or aluminum, with components joined together using brazing or similar methods. Opus: Coolant (such as...
