Enhanced tubes considered in this paper have small sharp fins of about 0.039 in. (1 mm) high provided with an axial pitch of 0.028 in. (0.7 mm). They are made of copper or copper alloys and designed to enhance condensation of fluorocarbon refrigerants. In the first half of the paper, the performance of this enhanced surface is summarized, indicating that the heat-transfer coefficient exceeds that of a 18 fpi (7 fins per 10 mm) low-finned surface by a factor of 3.
