Zusammenfassung:A heat exchanger tube (50) having an internal surface that enhances the heat transfer performance of the tube. The internal surface has ribs (53) that run substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the tube. The ribs have a pattern of parallel notches (54) intersecting and impressed into them at an angle oblique to the longitudinal axis. The pattern of ribs (53) and notches (54) increase the total internal surface area of the tube and also promote conditions for the flow of refrigerant within the tube that increase heat transfer performance.
