Heat exchangers are devices that facilitate the transfer of heat between two or more fluids at different temperatures. They are essential components in various industrial processes, including heating, cooling, and heat recovery. Heat exchangers work by separating the fluids with a solid wall, allowing heat transfer without direct mixing.
- Types: Heat exchangers come in various types, including shell and tube, plate, and finned tube exchangers, each suited for specific applications and fluid characteristics.
- Heat Transfer Mechanisms: They utilise conduction and convection to transfer heat between fluids. Heat conduction occurs through the solid wall separating the fluids, while convection facilitates heat transfer within the fluids themselves.
- Efficiency: The efficiency of a heat exchanger depends on factors like the heat transfer area, temperature difference between fluids, flow rates, and the type of heat exchanger.
- Material Selection: The materials used in heat exchangers are crucial, considering factors like corrosion resistance, thermal conductivity, and pressure requirements.
- Applications: They are widely used in various industries, including power generation, chemical processing, HVAC, food processing, and refrigeration.
