Plate And Shell Heat Exchanger For Steam Heating

Plate And Shell Heat Exchanger For Steam Heating

The basic structure of plate and shell heat exchanger is similar to the plate heat exchanger, but the plate spacing is increased, the gasket is cancelled, and the welding method is used to connect each plate to form a channel. It can withstand high temperature and high pressure, the heat transfer coefficient is higher than that of the shell and tube, and the area is smaller than that of the shell and tube.

Plate and shell heat exchanger works by moving a section of fluid from one container to another and installing a set of heat exchange plates between the two containers to make the heat transfer between the two fluids faster and more efficient. Plate Heat Exchanger Gaskets need to be checked to see if they are sufficiently resilient and will not be damaged by fastening forces and pressures. The plate heat exchanger plates have a corrugated structure, and the fluid can obtain a higher heat transfer coefficient at a low flow rate, which is 3-5 times that of the traditional shell.
