A method for producing a heat conductive member includes the steps of: preparing a hollow type heat recovery member having: an inner peripheral surface and an outer peripheral surface in an axial direction; and a first end face and a second end face in a direction orthogonal to the axial direction; inserting an inner cylindrical member into a hollow portion formed in an inner region of the inner peripheral surface; and subjecting the inner cylindrical member to plastic working, and fitting at least a part of the inner cylindrical member to at least a part of one or more selected from the inner peripheral surface, the first end face, and the second end face of the heat recovery member.

A method of constructing a coil wound heat exchange module and transporting and installing the coil wound heat exchange module at a plant site, such as an natural gas liquefaction plant. A module frame is constructed and attached to a heat exchanger shell prior to telescoping of a coil wound mandrel into the shell. The module frame includes a lug and two saddles that remain attached to the shell throughout the process and when the heat exchanger is operated. The lug and saddles are constructed and located to stabilize the shell during construction, telescoping and transport (when in a horizontal orientation), and when the shell is installed at the plant site (in a vertical orientation). The lugs and saddles are adapted to allow for thermal expansion and contraction of the shell when it is transitioned from ambient to operating temperature and vice versa.

In a method of manufacturing a heat exchanger for a rotating electrical machine, a pressing device is placed inside a tube with elastic members compressed so that a first pressing part and a second pressing part press the tube mutually oppositely in directions in which the diameter of at least a part of the tube located between two through holes of two supporting members expands. Pressure is built up in the tube and the tube is plastically deformed to form an inside large diameter part and inside connecting parts.

An outer finned tube includes a tube body, an outer wall of the tube body is provided with outer tins spirally arranged in an extension direction of the tube body; grid fins are arranged between two adjacent spiral parts of the outer fins correspondingly; two ends of each grid fin are connected to the two adjacent spiral parts of the corresponding outer fin respectively; a gap is kept between each grid fin and the outer wall of the tube body; and the plurality of grid fins are spaced in the extension direction of the tube body. An enhancing cavity is formed in an area defined by the outer wall of the tube body, inner walls of the grid fins and the outer tins in an encircling way, which can form a larger degree of superheat, provides a nucleation point for a boiling/condensation process and improves a heat exchange performance.

A method for producing a shrink-fitted member by arranging a pillar shaped ceramic body inside a deep-drawn stainless steel pipe and shrink-fitting them. The method includes: a preparing step of preparing the deep-drawn stainless steel pipe produced by deep-drawing and the pillar shaped ceramic body; a heating step of heating the deep-drawn stainless steel pipe to 900° C. or more; and a shrink-fitting step of inserting the pillar shaped ceramic body into the heated deep-drawn stainless steel pipe and shrink-fitting them.

A heat exchanger includes a header and a plurality of heat exchange tubes. The header includes a first tube and a second tube spaced apart from each other. The heat exchange tube includes a first section, a processing section and a second section. The processing section is connected between the first section and the second section. A processing method for a heat exchanger includes: twisting the processing section relative to the first section and the second section in a length direction of the first tube; bending the first section and the second section relative to the processing section; and pushing the processing section by a predetermined distance in the same direction as a direction in which the processing section is twisted.
