Spiral Heat Exchangers
The concept of a spiral heat exchanger is as simple as it is
sophisticated. Two or four long metal strips, onto which spacer
studs are welded, are wound around a core, thus creating two or four
equally spaced single-passage channels. The concentric shape of the
flowpassages and the studs create turbulence already at low Reynolds
numbers. By optimizing the flow pattern heat transfer is enhanced,
whilst fouling is reduced. This results in a compact and space-saving
construction that can be readily integrated in any plant and reduces
installation costs.
Tranter HES Spiral Heat Exchangers are utilized for a wide variety of
industry applications, especially for process industries. As a result
of the flexibility of the custom-made tailored design, they can be used
as heaters, coolers, interchangers, condensers and evaporators.
Spiral heat exchangers are ideally suited for handling “difficult”
fluids, such as sludges, slurries, heavy-fouling, viscous and/or
particle-laden liquids, but also where fl uids have to condense or
evaporate at low pressure drops. Each spiral heat exchanger is a
custom-made product and can be made from any cold-workable and weldable
material.
Design pressure: Vacuum to 60 bar
Design temperature: -100°C to 450°C
The spiral heat exchangers are manufactured in Schopfheim,
Germany.
