Finite element analysis of heat flow through longitudinal finned tubes in the LNG ambient air vaporizer for a total frost case

Liquefied natural gas (LNG) is transported and stored in liquid state at temperature of -163C. In order to use natural gas directly in its gaseous form, LNG must be vaporized, which requires the input of heat. Ambient air vaporizers (AAVs) are commonly used for that purpose in LNG regasification st...
