Abstract

Helically corrugated tubing with corrugations of variable depth is manufactured in a twisting machine by rotating one end of a deformable tube relative to the opposite end and simultaneously applying axially directed forces to the tube to progressively develop the helical corrugations in the tube wall. The depth of the corrugations is varied by means of a tapered mandrel which is located within the tube while the corrugations are being formed. Tubing sections with variable depth corrugations define flow paths in which the effective cross sectional area varies correspondingly, and such sections are useful in various heat exchangers.
