Plate heat exchanger resistance will have a direct impact on the plate heat exchanger heat transfer efficiency, so do you know how to reduce the plate What about the resistance of the heat exchanger? The following authors are here to introduce you.

    1. Using hot mixing board

    The two sides of the thermal hybrid plate have the same corrugated geometry, and the plate is divided into a hard plate (H) and a soft plate (L) according to the angle of the zigzag corrugations. The angle (usually about 120.) is greater than 90. is hard board, the angle (usually about 70.) is less than 90. is soft board. . Heat mixing plate hard plate surface heat transfer coefficient is high, fluid resistance, soft plate is the opposite. Combination of hard plate and soft plate, can be composed of high (HH), in (HL), low (LL) 3 characteristics of the flow channel, to meet the different The demand of working conditions.

    Hot and cold medium flow is relatively large, the use of thermal mixing plate than the use of symmetrical single-flow heat exchanger can reduce the plate area. Hot mixed plate hot and cold on both sides of the hole diameter is usually equal, hot and cold medium flow than the large, cold medium side of the corner pressure loss L very large. In addition, the thermal mixing plate design technology is difficult to achieve precise matching, often resulting in limited savings in plate area. Therefore, the hot and cold medium flow ratio is too large to use the hot mixed plate.

    2. The use of asymmetric plate heat exchanger

    Symmetrical plate heat exchanger is composed of plates with the same corrugated geometry on both sides of the plate, forming a plate with equal cross-sectional area of hot and cold runner circulation. Heat exchanger. Asymmetric (unequal cross-sectional area) plate heat exchanger according to the heat transfer characteristics of the cold and hot fluid and pressure drop requirements, change the waveform on both sides of the plate. Geometric structure, the formation of hot and cold runner circulation cross-sectional area of varying plate heat exchanger, wide runner side of the corner of the larger L diameter. Asymmetric plate heat exchanger coefficient of heat transfer decreased slightly, and the pressure drop is greatly reduced. Hot and cold medium flow is relatively large, the use of non-symmetrical single process than the use of symmetrical single process heat exchanger can reduce the plate area of 15%. A 3O%.

    3. Adopt a multi-process portfolio

    When the hot and cold media flow is large, a combined multi-flow arrangement can be used, with more flow on the small flow side to increase the flow rate. Higher heat transfer coefficients are obtained. Fewer flows are used on the high flow side to reduce heat exchanger resistance. A multi-flow combination results in a mixed flow pattern with a slightly lower average heat transfer temperature difference. The combination of multi-process plate heat exchanger fixed end plate and active end plate have taken over, maintenance workload.

    4. Set heat exchanger bypass tube

    When the hot and cold medium flow is relatively large, the heat exchanger in the large flow side of the import and export side of the heat exchanger can be set up to bypass the tube to reduce the flow into the heat exchanger. Reduce resistance. In order to facilitate adjustment, in the bypass tube should be installed on the control valve. The way should be used to counter-current arrangement, so that the cold medium out of the heat exchanger temperature is high, to ensure that the heat exchanger outlet after the merger of the cold medium temperature can be To meet the design requirements. Set heat exchanger bypass tube can ensure that the heat exchanger has a high heat transfer coefficient, reduce heat exchanger resistance, but the adjustment is slightly complicated.

    5. Plate heat exchanger form of choice

    Heat exchanger between the plate runner medium in the average flow rate of 0.3 ~ 0.6m / s is appropriate, resistance to not more than 100kPa is appropriate. According to different hot and cold medium flow than, can refer to Table 1 selection of different forms of plate heat exchanger, the table non-symmetrical plate heat exchanger flow channel The cross-sectional area ratio is 2. Symmetrical or asymmetrical, single or multi-process plate heat exchanger can be set up with heat exchanger bypass tube. But it should be subjected to detailed thermal calculations.
