Gasket Plate Heat Exchanger Cooling Water Condenser

A wide variety of condenser configurations are employed in the process industry. Selection of condenser type is not easy and depends on the following criteria: condenser heat capacity;condensing temperature and pressure;the flow rates of refrigerant and coolant;design temperature for water and/or air;operation period, and climatic conditions.

In plate and shell heat exchanger, the two fluids flow in the tube and shell respectively, and the overall flow is cross-flow, and the logarithmic average temperature difference correction coefficient is small, while the plate heat exchanger is mostly parallel flow or countercurrent flow. Gasket plate heat exchangers are known for their high heat transfer efficiency, compact size, and easy maintenance.The surface of the plate heat exchange plates is pressed into a corrugated or trough type to increase the stiffness of the plate, increase the degree of fluid turbulence, and improve the heat transfer efficiency. Its material is generally stainless steel, copper, aluminum, aluminum alloy, chin, nickel and so on. The corner holes at the corners of the plate act as connecting channels.
