1、Designation:A498/A498M17Standard Specification forSeamless and Welded Carbon Steel Heat-Exchanger Tubeswith Integral Fins1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A498/A498M;the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or,in the case of revision,
2、the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This specification describes seamless or welded low-carbon steel tubes on which the external or internal surf
3、ace,orboth,have been modified by a cold forming process to producean integral increased surface area for improved heat transfer.The tubes are used in tubular heat exchangers,surfacecondensers,evaporators,superheaters,and similar heat-transfer apparatus in outside diameters up to 2 in.50 mm,inclusive
4、.1.2 UnitsThis specification is expressed in both inch-pound units and in SI units;however,unless the purchase orderor contract specifies the applicable M specification designation(SI units),the inch-pound units shall apply.The values stated ineither inch-pound units or SI units are to be regarded s
5、eparatelyas standard.Within the text,the SI units are shown in brackets.The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents;therefore,each system shall be used independently of the other.Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.1.3 This internat
