See full text

Systems, apparatuses, and methods described herein are directed to a heat exchange tube structure and an arrangement of heat exchange tubes that enhance or help promote fluid flow through a heat exchanger. Bend portions of heat exchange tubes may be structured and configured to allow for gaps so that fluid may pass an assembly of the heat exchange tubes. The heat exchange tubes may be arranged to expose the air gaps at the bend portions of the heat exchange tubes to promote fluid flow.
