 INTRODUCTION

• Used for heat integrating process

• Provide advantages over shell-and-tube heat exchangers, such
as compactness, large surface area per volume ratio
• Types
• Advantages
• Design
• Applications
 DESCRIPTION

• Heat exchanger basically two streams of fluid that exchange

temperature for cooling or heating.
• Uses accordingly.
• Area density higher than 700 meter square per meter cube.
• Increase efficiency by reduce volume, cost effective.
 Types
1.Spiral Heat Exchanger

2. Welded Plate Heat Exchanger

3. Printed – Circuit Heat Exchanger

4. Printed – Circuit Heat Exchanger

SPIRAL HEAT EXCHANGER
• Two long flat plates wrapped around center tube.
• Temperatures up to 400 degrees.
• Pressure up to 25 bars.
• Stainless steel, carbon steel, Titanium.
• High heat transfer coefficient.
• Difficult to clean
• Pasteurization , Pre-Heating
 Plate & Frame Heat Exchanger

- Flow rate up to 5000 m3/h
 Printed - Circuit Heat Exchanger
• Diffusion Bonding

• Materials: Stainless steel 316L, alloys, nickel and ti tanium.

• Operati ng limits:
-Temperature ranges from -200°C
to 900°C

 Other Types of CHE

• Compact types retaining a shell

• APV Paratube Heat Exchanger

• Fluidized Bed Heat Exchanger

• Twisted Tube Heat Exchanger

• Compact Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger

 Advantages
• Improved energy effi ciency
- Closer approach temperatures allows greater energy
transfer.
• Smaller volume and weight
• Higher effi ciency
• Lower cost
• Multi -stream and multi -pass confi gurati ons
• Tighter temp erat ure control
• Power saving
• Improved safety
 The LMTD Design Method
1.Calculation of
DT1-DT2
=
ln(DT1/DT2)

2.Calculation of Heat Load Q

UA = Q/DT

Q= F(UA)DT

3.Efficiveness Parameter P
= Cmin/Ct * e

4.Heat Capacity Ratio R

= Ct/Cs

5.Ntu = UA/Ct
 Applications
• Marine Applications

• Cryogenics

• Chemicals and Petrochemicals

• Oil and Gas Processing

 FOULING
1.Crystallization or precipitation
• Solutes in the fluid is precipitated & crystals are formed
2.Particulate fouling or silting
• Solid particles are deposited on the heat transfer surface
3.Biological fouling
• Deposition & growth of organism on surfaces
4.Corrosion fouling
• Carrying of corrosion products from other part of the system
being left on the heat transfer area surface
5.Chemical reaction fouling
• Arises from reactions between constituents in the process fluids
6.Freezing or solidification fouling
• Occurs when the temperature of a fluid passing through a heat
exchanger becomes too low.
 SECURITY ASPECTS
FOULING
1. Use of non-fouling fluids wherever possible is of course
recommended, for example clean air or gases, light carbons
& refrigerants.
2. In open system, check the possible application of self-
cleaning strainers, & the installation of systems to dose
with biocides, scale inhibitors, etc., to control fouling.
3. Use self- cleaning filter if possible.
4. Consider chemical cleaning. If this is undertaken, the
system must be designed to allow the introduction &
complete removal of cleaning fluids.
 Corrosion
1. In some CHEs, the wall thicknesses are less than in a shell-
and-tube hear exchanger, so corrosion rates and
allowances need to be accessed carefully
2. Although CHEs are often made from more corrosion-
resistant material than the shell-and- tube units, other
corrosion mechanisms such as cracking may occur, and the
combability of the material with the fluids in the CHE
should be checked.
 Environmental Aspects
1. Energy conservation and environmental considerations are
the driving forces behind changes aimed at reducing both
chemical and thermal waste.
2. More efficient use of energy and raw materials
3. Recovery of heats of reaction
4. High intensity mixing, enhancing process selectivity
5. Minimum risk of runaway reactions
6. Smaller and cheaper plant
7. Ability to handle high-pressure reactions
 Conclusion
• 1. Compact heat exchangers are available in a wide variety
of configurations to suit most processes heat transfer
requirement.
• 2. The Advantages of CHEs, and associated heat transfer
enhancement techniques, extend far beyond energy
efficiency.
• 3. Lower capital cost, reduced plant size, and increased
safety are typical of the benefits arising from the use of
CHEs.
• 4. Compact heat exchanges can replace some normal size
heat exchanges bringing advantage and performance.
• 5. This research took a lot of time, since the specific details
of a theme like this take time to search.
