Role Of ASTM A179 Embedded G Type Fin Tube For Central Air Handling Units
ASTM A179 covers minimum-wall-thickness, seamless cold-drawn low-carbon steel tubes for tubular heat exchangers, condensers, and similar heat transfer apparatus.Due to their excellent thermal conductivity, mechanical properties, and cost-effectiveness,these tubes are highly preferred for making fin tubes.
A179 is a thin-walled cold-drawn seamless pipe with a thin wall and a smooth inner diameter. This significantly reduces the thermal resistance on the water side (inside the pipe), thereby enabling an extremely high heat exchange efficiency between the refrigerant and the water. This is the fundamental reason for its excellent energy efficiency performance.
The outstanding resistance to water corrosion and reliability are the most crucial advantages of A179 pipes in air conditioning systems. The most important aspect is that A179 offers a more cost-effective solution compared to stainless steel pipes, and its performance is far superior to that of ordinary carbon steel pipes.
Central Air Handling Units: Core components for evaporators and condensers, especially in dry-expansion evaporators and air-cooled condensers.
The G-type mechanical interlocking method ensures a very strong connection between the fins and the steel base pipe, providing excellent resistance to vibration and air flow erosion. It is suitable for the long-term operation conditions of air conditioning fans. Moreover, the surface of the pipe is smooth, the spacing of the fins is regular, it is not prone to accumulate dust, and it is convenient to clean and maintain using high-pressure air or water.

Conclusion
In the central air conditioning unit, the A179 G type finned tube is a "enhanced" heat exchange tube designed to improve energy efficiency and reliability. The core value of the A179 base tube lies in providing a reliable channel with high thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance and high strength for the water side (or refrigerant side). The core value of the G type fin is to enhance the heat exchange efficiency on the other side (air side or water side) by expanding the area or inducing turbulence.
With the combination of these two, evaporators or condensers using this tube type can achieve a greater heat exchange capacity within a smaller volume, making the unit structure compact; achieve a higher energy efficiency ratio and reduce operating energy consumption. It offers a longer service life and lower maintenance requirements, and is particularly advantageous in dealing with water quality issues.
