Abstract (en)

A method of bending a pipe having an oblong cross-section for heat exchangers comprises the stages of causing a relative rotation which is substantially equal to 180 DEG between two limbs (2a, 2b) of the pipe (2) about an axis (8) parallel to the longer axis (4) of the cross-section of the pipe so as to obtain two straight limbs (2a, 2b) connected to one another by a curved connecting portion (2c) and to cause a relative rotation which is substantially equal to 90 DEG between each of the straight limbs (2a, 2b) and the connecting portion (2c). <IMAGE>
