Inhoudsopgave

Plate heat exchanger is a new type high-efficiency heat exchanger , which is made of series metal sheets with corrugated shape. During various plates have thin rectangular channels , and exchange heat through the plates.

Plate heat exchanger is an ideal equipment for liquid-liquid and liquid-steam heat exchange. It has the features like: high heat exchange efficiency, small heat loss, compact and light structure, small footprint, easy installation and cleaning, brede toepassing, en lange levensduur, enz.

Today we will talk more knowledge about plate heat exchanger.

Structuur

Hoofd onderdelen: Seal gasket, fix plate, active plate, screw, upper column, lower column, support rod , frame plate, enz.

plate heat exchanger structure

Plate heat exchanger has 2 soorten: frame type (detachable) and brazing type, meanwhile there are 2 types of plates: corrugated plate and round-shaped plate.

Functions of Plate Texture

It will cause fluid turbulence, enhances heat transfer, and the corrugations of adjacent plates form contact resistance points, improve pressure resistance.

Chocolate distribution area

Make the fluid flow evenly across the entire plate, with the same pressure drop at “A” En “B”, minimize the pressure loss, increase effective heat transfer, and allow parallel flow.

The plate heat exchanger consists of a group of plates stacked into a channel-shaped plate package. The two ends have bottom plates with pipe connections. The whole plate is made by vacuum brazing.

Two media flow in adjacent channels respectively. The plates between adjacent channels are pressed into corrugated shape to enhance the heat exchange between the two media. In the brazed plate heat exchanger for koeling, there is always one more water flow channel than koelmiddel flow channel.

one side flow plate heat exchanger

Above is single-side flow schema, some heat exchangers are made for diagonal flow, means “Q1” En “Q3” contain one medium, while “Q2” En “Q4” contain another medium.

The fastening way is screw and bolt structure, which is convenient for on-site disassembly and repair.

Working Principle

The plates of plate heat exchanger are sealed and guided by sealing gaskets to separate the cold/hot fluid channels. The cold/hot heat exchange medium flows through their respective channels and exchanges heat with the separated plates to achieve the set temperature.

Each plate has openings at the four corners, then form to distribution pipeline and collection pipeline, after being assembled into a plate pack. After the heat exchange of the cold/hot medium, it flows back from the respective collection pipes then recycle.

Single-flow structure: only two plates don’t exchange heatfront (Eerst) and bottom (last) plates.

one side flow

Double-flow structure: Each flow has 3 plates without heat exchange.

Gasket

Gaskets used as sealing elements between heat exchanger plates to prevent leakage. In HVAC industry, gaskets are mainly rubber products, which are greatly affected by temperature and medium.

Gasket requirement:

Anti-aging, tear-resistant, high resilience

Sealing contact surface is accurate in size and the alarm signal hole is sensitive

Adhesive-free structure, easy to disassemble and assemble

Gasket selection:

According to the medium features

Gasket materialMaterial code numberTemperatureSuitable medium

Installatie

Upside down installation

plate heat exchanger installation

Some plate heat exchangers can place upside down, please confirm with the supplier.

Installation posture

installation posture

Must install vertically, not horizontally.

Installatie “1” is correct, “2” En “3” is also ok, “4” is wrong.

Pipeline layout

pipeline layout

Don’t allow vibration and pipe thermal expansion to reach the plate heat exchanger.

Actions:

Add rubber gaskets between BPHE (brazed plate heat exchanger) and the bracket.
Use vibration dampers for the compressor.
Use bellow or other vibration absorb device when the straight pipe section is long. A return bend higher than the inlet pipe can make the water fill the BPHE (see above picture).

Pipeline welding

Pipeline welding

Clean and degrease the welding surface with solvent. To avoid oxidation and cool the BPHE, blow nitrogen through the welded pipes. Keep water flowing in the water-side pipeline.

Keep water flowing before welding starts and keep it flowing until the BPHE can be touched by hand.

The solder should contain at least 45% silver and brazing should be carried out at less than 650 ℃. In any case, the weldment shouldn’t exceed 800 ℃.

TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas Shielded Arc Welding) is the least-heat released welding method.

BPHE Leakage Checklist

System check

Check shutdown sequence and evaporation temperature

Check if vibrations from other devices

Is an electric valve or solenoid valve applied on the water side?

Does the water contain excess chloride ions or other corrosive agents?

External check

Is there a bulge on the back cover opposite the water inlet?

Are there any signs of deformation on either side?

Are the pipe connections tight?

Check the appearance for any damage during transportation or installation?

Conclusie

In the end, plate heat exchangers are highly efficient and compact solutions for heat transfer across various industries.

Their modular design, ease of maintenance, and adaptability to different applications make them a better choice for energy-saving operations.

Proper selection and regular maintenance are essential to ensure optimal performance and extended service life.
