Plate Heat Exchanger BR0.3

Plate heat exchanger consists of a pack of corrugated metal plates with portholes for the passage of the two fluids between which heat transfer will take place. The plate pack is assembled between a fix frame plate and a movable pressure plate and compressed by tightening bolts. The plates are fitted with a gasket which seals the interpolate channel and directs the fluids into alternate channels. The number of plates is determined by the flow rate, physical properties of the fluids, pressure drop and temperature program.

Classification of Plate Heat Exchanger

1. according to the plate material: it can be divided into SUS304, SUS316, and titanium plate

2. according to the pads materials: it can be divided into butadiene acrylonitrile rubber (NBR), EPDM, fluorine rubber (TP)

3. according to the stent material，there are iron stents and stainless steel support

Usages of Plate Heat Exchanger

It is applied in metallurgy, petroleum, chemical industry, medicine, food, chemical fiber, paper making, textile, heating and other departments, can be used for heating, cooling, evaporation， condensation， sterilization and waste heat recovery.

Working Principle of Plate Heat Exchanger

Channels are formed between the plates and the corner ports are arranged so that the two media flow through alternate channels. The heat is transferred through the plate between the channels, and complete counter-current flow is created for highest possible efficiency. The corrugation of the plates provides the passage between the plates, supports each plate against the adjacent one and enhances the turbulence, resulting in efficient heat transfer.

Characteristics of Plate Heat Exchanger
