What is a heat exchanger?

Plate heat exchanger is a device that can be used to transfer heat and cool fluids. These devices use thin corrugated metal plates that are compressed within a metal frame. These boards are fixed together with washers and bolts to prevent liquid from seeping into the surrounding environment. The gasket on the plate heat exchanger also makes it easy to clean and maintain. The fluid flow in the plate heat exchanger is controlled by a pressure gauge.

Unlike other devices, plate heat exchangers use metal plates to transfer heat between two different fluids. Because fluids never come into contact, they transfer heat to another. The common design of plate heat exchangers consists of two parallel plates with a space between them. The distance between these two plates allows fluid to pass through the heat exchanger without encountering the heat exchanger itself. Flat plate heat exchangers also provide higher efficiency.

Plate heat exchanger is a type of condensing air gas heat exchanger. This type of equipment has a compact structure and uses metal plates to transfer heat. There are four main types of these types of equipment: gasket type, brazed type, welded type, and semi welded type. Gasket plate heat exchangers are the most compact, used for confined concave shells and rectangular channels.

Plate heat exchanger is an efficient and economical heat transfer method. It consists of two layers of corrugated metal plates with gaps between them. The warm medium flows through these plates and then dissipates heat to the cooler medium. Plate heat exchangers have high efficiency and small footprint. They are also lighter than other types of heat transfer equipment. And due to their high efficiency, they are often used in industrial applications.
