VORTEX - System for Aluminum Coils Annealing - 3

The Vortex AirFflow Jet Heating System incorporates arrays of round-nozzle jets, pointing at multiple angles, which generate a spiral vortex motion of air that results in high heat transfer without producing hot spots in the coil. The highvolume flow of this nozzle system in conjunction with a unique semi-axialsemi-axial or centrifugal fan design allows the coil to be heated more uniformly by a larger mass of atmosphere. Analysis of infrared pictures, shows that a more uniform surface temperature can be achieved by using the new Vortex AirFflow Jet Heating System. The key to the system is...

VORTEX - System for Aluminum Coils Annealing - 4

Cooling is very important in this application for both metallurgical and handling considerations. The coolers use an internal bypass arrangement which limits the temperature of the atmosphere going through the heat exchangers to 175°C. This prevents baking of the volatized rolling oil on the fins of the heat exchanger. The coolers are designed to provide in-depthplunge, programmed, or auxiliary cooling and are available in standard or custom sizes. The coolers can be rear or side mounted according to space availability. Additionally, users can also add a Bbypass cCooler to an existing...
