Most of our turbulators use wire, as it gives a low pressure drop and high turbulence.  Wire based turbulators are the most efficient Turbulator type.

This is because wire due to its small diameter and cylindrical nature offers comparatively lower resistance while offering a large matrix for interacting with the fluid. It thus gives higher mixing and heat transfer for a lower pressure drop.

Major Types of turbulators:

• Flexible or wire Petal turbulators. (Also called wire matrix turbulators)
• Rigid center rod wire turbulators. (sometimes soldered to tubes)
• Finned Hollow Rod type turbulators.
• Twisted tape turbulators. (Traditional).
