Brazed Heat
Exchangers
The
brazed plate heat exchanger is the most advanced form of the
compact plate heat exchanger especially designed for a wide range of
applications in both process and hydronic applications. These heat
exchangers are also widely used for refrigeration applications as
evaporators, condensers and sub-coolers
|
Operating
Principle
The brazed plate heat exchanger has a simple operating principle. Based
on the plate and nozzle orientation, each fluid passes through
alternative channels within the heat exchanger. All plate material and
nozzles are Stainless Steel 316 with 99.9% copper used for brazing the
heat exchanger together.
An
extremely high heat transfer coefficient is attained due to the flow
characteristics in each channel. A specially designed and tested chevron
pattern causes a turbulent flow of the fluid resulting in higher heat
transfer.

Advantages
of the Brazed Heat Exchanger
Compact:
Due to the high efficiency of the brazed plate heat exchangers, these
heat exchangers are often half the size of conventional shell & tube
heat exchangers. The smaller footprint also makes it easier to be
installed on skid systems and portable equipment packages.
High
Efficiency:
Due to the turbulent flow of the fluid in the channels, the heat
transfer coefficients of our brazed plate heat exchangers are 3-5 times
higher than that of a conventional Shell & Tube heat exchanger for a
similar application.
Rugged
Construction:
The brazed plate heat exchanger is brazed using 99.9% copper. The copper
provides a strong bond when heated in a special furnace, keeping the
plates bonded together. The heat exchangers have a hig
pressure-temperature rating. All our copper brazed heat exchangers are
rated for 413psig, 406 degrees..
Closer
Approach
The brazed plate heat exchanger can provide a temperature approach of 1
degree F. This allows for maximum utilization of waste heat recovery.
24-Hour
Service:
We can be reached on a 24 hour basis, 7 days a week for any replacement
of heat exchangers on an emergency basis

Shell & Coil
The shell and coiled tube heat exchangers are constructed
using circular layers of helically corrugated tubes placed
inside a light compact shell. The fluid in each layer
flows in the opposite direction to the layer surrounding it,
producing a criss-cross pattern. The large number of closely
packed tubes creates a significant heat transfer surface
within a light compact shell. The alternate layers create a
swift uniform heating of fluids increasing the total heat
transfer coefficient. The corrugated tubes produce a
turbulent flow where the desired feature of fluctuating
velocities is achieved. This haphazard movement of fluid
particles reduces deposit buildup by performing a "scoop and
lift" action. The connection locations and angle of entry
is specially selected to reduce the probability of debris
buildup.
|
Shell and Coil
Construction Features
The shell and coil tube
series are manufactured as a singe unit with no removable parts. The
coiled tube bundles are welded to a compact tube sheet located within the
entry and exit connections. The cylindrical shell is terminated by
hemi-spherical heads. Design variations include smooth or grooved tubes,
angled or 90 connections in flanged or NPT termination, and 316L stainless
or titanium components.
Advantages of the
shell and tube heat exchangers:
The shell and coil design is the perfect choice whenever high heat
transfer rates, compact design and low maintenance costs are high
priorities. Other benefits include:
- High
Performance: the unique coil arrangement has a large heat transfer
area meaning high heat transfer coefficients.
- Compact and
Lightweight: closely
packed tubes makes our shell and coil exchangers compact and lightweight.
Small footprint makes it easy to install where
space is limited and hard to access.
- Low
Maintenance Costs: corrugated tube design produces a high
turbulent flow, which reduces deposit build-up and fouling. This
means longer operating cycles between scheduled cleaning intervals.
- Low
Installation Costs: vertical installation makes it ideal for
hydronic heating and cooling systems where space is an issue.
- Higher
Temperature Differentials: helical design allows for higher
temperatures and extreme temperature differentials without high stress
levels and costly expansion joints.
- Flexible
Designs: variety of model types and configurations allow shell and
coil heat exchangers to be used with a wide range of pressures,
temperatures, and flows.
- Low Pressure
Drop:
- Easy selection
based on sub-station space requirements and heat or cooling load.
- Units kept in
stock for immediate delivery.
Shell and Coil
Applications:
The shell and coil design were designed specifically for the hydronic
markets including:
- Heating
Systems:
- Chilled Water
Systems:
- Ground Water
Systems:
- Residential
Use:
- District
Heating Systems: heating systems that distribute heat from one or
more heating sources to multiple buildings.

U-Tube Heat Exchangers
Shell and tube heat exchangers are becoming the most
popular device for the transfer of heat in industrial
process applications. Our PS and PW-type U-tube heat
exchangers transfer large amounts of heat at a
relatively lost cost, provide lots effective tube
surface while minimizing the requirements of floor
space, liquid volume and weight and are available in
a variety of diameters and lengths. The PS and PW-type
U-tube heat exchangers are designed for a wide range
of liquid to liquid (PW) and steam to liquid (PS)
applications. The shell and tube heat exchanger
is constructed using stainless steel tubes and a
carbon steel shell. It is manufactured using the most
advanced technology available and is specifically
engineered for a wide range of applications. Every
unit is designed, manufactured and tested to meet
the quality requirements of the ASME code:
Section VIII Division #1 and ISO 9002.

Features
U-tube construction
Units designed for liquid to liquid (PW) and steam to liquid (PS) applications.
Available in 2 or 4 pass construction.
Removable tube bundles for convenience in cleaning and inspection.
Strong, durable construction with stainless steel tubes and rugged cast-iron or steel head in standard units. (Optional materials are available).
Coil and baffle arrangements designed to maximize heat transfer performance.
Tubes expanded into stationary tubesheet allow for tube expansions and contractions, due to thermal fluctuations, without causing stresses on the joints. Welding tubes to the tubesheet is optional.
Advantages
The advantage of the shell and tube design cannot be ignored. Each unit comes with:
connections that come in standardized sizes for easy assembly and feature additional thread and surface protection for clean installation
U-bend tubes expanded into a tubesheet which allow for tube expansions and contractions due to thermal fluctuations.
gaskets that are made of high quality compressed fibres which lends to reusability.
a standard cast-iron or steel head for heavy duty services (also available as a spare part).
saddle attaches which make for quick and easy mounting.
punched baffles with minimal clearances between tubes guaranteeing correct fluid flow and minimized bypass
a welded shell protected with high quality paint for corrosion resistance.
stainless steel tubes which allow for strong, durable performance over a wide range of applications. Unique tube bundle layout (chevron corrugated pattern) minimizes deposit buildup at the edges and optimises media flow for high velocity flow turbulence.
Applications
Shell and tube heat exchangers are frequently selected for such applications as:
Process liquid or gas cooling
Process or refrigerant vapor or steam condensing
Process liquid, steam or refrigerant evaporation
Process heat removal and preheating of feed water
Thermal energy conservation efforts, heat recovery
Compressor, turbine and engine cooling, oil and jacket water
Hydraulic and lube oil cooling
Shell and tube heat exchangers have been around for over 150 years. Their thermal technology and manufacturing methods are well defined and applied by the modern manufacturer. Tube surfaces range from standard to exotic metals with plain or enhanced surface characteristics. They can help provide the least costly mechanical design for the flows, liquids and temperatures involved.
