Industrial heat exchangers: operating principle
Heat exchangers are equipment used to transfer heat from a stream of higher temperature to a stream of lower temperature. They facilitate heat exchange between fluids in thermal contact with the metal walls that separate them, without allowing them to mix. They are designed and operated in such a way that this exchange is carried out efficiently.
In industrial heat exchangers, the following applies:
There must be a temperature difference between the fluids; this represents the driving force.
Heat is transferred from a medium of higher temperature to a medium of lower temperature.
The balance of heat gained and lost between the parts must be equal.
The parameters that determine the efficiency of this equipment are the heat transfer area, the transfer coefficient and the temperature difference between the fluids.
Heat exchangers: types present in the Foeth stock
We have the following types of heat exchangers as part of the Foeth catalogue:
Shell and tube exchangers: where a fluid is circulated through a tube bundle contained within a shell, through which in turn a different fluid transits at a different temperature value.
Plate heat exchangers: instead of tubes, plates are used which determine the transit of the hot and cold fluid, alternating and changing their direction as they move through the system. The plates can be removable or welded. Examples of these are the Alfa Laval FrontLine heat exchangers, designed for gentle and uniform heat transfer for sensitive hygienic products.
Spiral heat exchangers, SpiralCond line, also from Alfa Laval, are ideal for fluids that tend to cause fouling.
Scraped surface exchangers, widely used in the food, pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries. Recommended for handling viscous products, they contain particles in the process of crystallisation. They use a rotor mechanism that quickly and continuously scrapes the wall that separates the fluids, favouring the homogenisation of the temperature by replacing the boundary layer.
In addition, a wide range of thermal fluid units is available. If you need additional information about the types of heat exchangers available, please call or write via the Foeth contact form.
