When selecting the type of industrial heat exchanger to use, construction materials, heat transfer medium, flow arrangement and heat transfer method are all factors to consider.
Our Equipment Overview on Heat Exchangers offers a side-by-side comparison of industrial heat exchanger manufacturers to show you which companies manufacture the types you want.
Shell-and-tube heat exchangers are suitable for a range of pressure and temperature conditions and can be robust enough to handle corrosive or even lethal fluids. These industrial workhorse exchangers enable heat transfer between two independent pressurized chambers through the wall of the tubes.
Shell-and-tube designs incorporate fixed or floating tubesheets, fixed or removable tube bundles and expansion joints as needed to create an effective heat transfer vessel. Gain a better understanding of the TEMA types to improve your selection process.
Among the most common types of heat transfer equipment used in industrial applications are the various configurations of shell-and-tube heat exchangers. Suitable for a range of pressure and temperature conditions, shell-and-tube heat exchangers can be robust enough to handle corrosive or even lethal fluids.
It is essential that heat transfer systems for chemical processes are designed to maximize efficiency. Because the heat transfer step in many chemical processes is energy intensive, a failure to focus on efficiency can drive up costs unnecessarily.
The transfer of heat from one fluid to another is an essential component of all chemical processes. Whether it is to cool down a chemical after it has been formed during an exothermic reaction, or to heat components before starting a reaction to make a final product, the thermal processing operation is core to the chemical process.
Graphite heat exchangers are well suited and cost effective for highly corrosive processes used in industries such as chemicals, metallurgy and pharmaceuticals.
Compact welded heat exchangers can perform the same duty as larger shell-and-tube units in a smaller footprint. In refinery applications where space is limited, compact welded heat exchangers provide advantages.
Refineries are constantly pushing to improve their processes in order to improve profitability. Because refining is such an energy-intensive process and many refineries are using outdated technology, there is room for improvement.
