DESCRIPTION
The plate heat exchanger is extremely versatile and commonly used in the food and chemical processing industries.
The HT32X has a single heating section configured for multi-pass operation with passes in series.
It comprises 10 individual plates. When being assembled, each second plate is rotated by 180°, thus forming two separately rotated flow chambers by the means of which the mediums being involved in the heat transfer are conducted in counter flow.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
As suggested by its name, the plate heat exchanger consists of wave-shaped panels that are assembled in a unique way. There are interspaces between the plates.
The plates are manufactured from thin sheets of stainless steel, embossed with corrugations that promote turbulent mixing even at low Reynolds numbers. This turbulent mixing has the advantages of creating very high heat transfer coefficients and reduce fouling that may occur.
Hot and cold fluid flows may be configured for either cocurrent or countercurrent operation.
