Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Wärmeaustauschrohr (1) mit berippter Innenoberfläche, die in Umfangsrichtung in mindestens zwei Zonen (Z1 bis Zm) aufgeteilt ist. Die unter einem Steigungswinkel α zur Rohrlängsachse verlaufenden Rippen (2, 3) sind in den einzelnen Zonen (Z1 bis Zm) in beliebiger periodischer Kombination und Abfolge mindestens zweier Rippenhöhen (H1 bis Hn, H1>H2>...>Hn) angeordnet. Dabei grenzen benachbarte Zonen so aneinander, daß die Rippenabfolge in Rohrlängsrichtung um mindestens eine Rippe versetzt ist (vgl. Fig.7).
Diese Anordnung ist auch bei erfindungsgemäßen Varianten vorgesehen, bei denen die berippte Innenoberfläche jeweils in Gruppen von Zonen aufgeteilt ist, in denen der Steigungswinkel der Rippen zwar einheitlich ist, zwischen benachbarten Gruppen aber variiert.
