Apparatus, systems, and methods for a modular heating unit that may be adapted to be inline with a pipeline. The unit includes a base member having a main inlet pipe, a header, and pipes connecting the main inlet pipe with the header. A combustion chamber is positioned within the pipes. One or more heat exchangers are connected to the header. The heat exchangers each having a top surface, bottom surface, plurality of fins, inlet ring, inlet port, outlet ring, and outlet port. The modular heating unit includes external inlet and outlet pipes. A first flow path enables fluid to flow from the header into the one or more heat exchangers. An exit flow path connected to the external outlet pipe connects the one or more heat exchangers to an exit port with a portion of the exit flow path being positioned above the one or more heat exchangers.

A heat exchanger for an apparatus including a burner has at least one tube extending along a centerline from an inlet end adjacent the burner to an outlet end. A plurality of indentations is formed in the tube adjacent the inlet end and extend radially inward towards the centerline. The indentations are formed in opposing pairs extending towards one another to a depth sufficient to create turbulent fluid flow through the inlet end of the tube.

A heat exchanger is disclosed having a tube bundle, intended to internally receive a first fluid, and a shell with an inlet opening at a first end. The shell allows an internal circulation of a second fluid and is arranged to surround the tube bundle. An inner casing to the shell circumscribes the bundle within a heat exchange chamber so that between the casing and the shell an annular region extending in a continuous way along the length of the bundle is defined. The annular region is in fluid communication with the exchange chamber through an outflow opening obtained at a second end of the inner casing where the latter has a rear wall facing an opening of the shell to outlet the second fluid from the heat exchanger. The inlet and outlet openings are in fluid communication by means of the annular region.
