Heat transfer problems of unsaturated water
Thread Content
I would like to ask everyone: can unsaturated water be heat-exchanged using a plate heat exchanger? Are there any special requirements for the heat exchanger? For example, unsaturated water at 1.4 MPa and 140°C can be used as a heat medium.
Will there be water hammer or vibration?
Yes, it depends on whether the materials you need are used for cooling or heating hot water. Our device can reach 120°C; it has a pressure rating of PN1.35 Mpa, and it is used to draw out the 250°C hot water from the reactor tank. Water hammer phenomena often occur at the return water control valve section
For 140 degrees, using a plate heat exchanger would likely result in a somewhat high temperature; generally, a shell-and-tube heat exchanger is used in such cases
Unsaturated water heat exchange means that pressure is maintained to prevent it from vaporizing, keeping it in an unsaturated state at all times
Both this temperature gasket plate and the fully welded plate can be used
