Heat exchangers (coils) are designed mainly for theheating and cooling of air and other gases.
Typical heating mediums used in coils include hotwater, oil, liquid from industrial processes or steam;typical cooling mediums are cold water, evaporativerefrigerant, oil or other types of liquids.
The coils are available in versions for e.g.
installation in the ducting or in air handling units,different materials and fin pitches, and in differenttightness classes on the air side.
In ordinary applications, design charts for thevarious types of coil are used for sizing. If demandsare made on high sizing accuracy, ABB Coiltech hasdeveloped a computer programme for this purpose.
The heat exchangers are produced as standard insizes up to 8 × 2.4 m and for air flows up to 96 m 3/s.They are designed for horizontal or vertical air flow.

Sizing
Use the appropriate sizing chart for each type of coil. Thecharts enable the size to be determined quickly with suf-ficient accuracy for practical purposes. A computer pro-gramme is available for simple and optimum coil sizing.

Normal velocities for coils.
Coils for evaporative refrigerant – output stages
Coils used for evaporative refrigerants can be suppliedwith the total output broken down into two or morestages (depending on the height of the coil).
Coils with 2 output stages are normally connected sothat every other loop belongs to output stage 1, and theintervening loops belong to output stage 2. This is knownas interlace connection.

2) Min. water velocity for preventing
venting problems and laminar flow.
3) Max. water velocity due to therisk of erosion. For coils withsteel tube loops, the water vel-
ocity should not exceed 3 m/s.
Quality
Accuracy and precision are important ingredients in themanufacture of our coils.
To ensure the high quality and output of our coils, weemploy a documented quality system which conforms tothe provisions of SS-EN ISO 9001:1994.
