Temperature control scheme for heat exchangers
Thread Content
Some heat exchangers have temperature control, while others do not. Which ones require a temperature regulation system? Is it better to place the temperature control valve assembly at the inlet or the outlet?
The adjustment settings are determined based on requirements. When I need to control the temperature, I use a temperature control valve assembly; the position of these valves varies depending on the type of medium used, and it is also closely related to the process flow
I’ve encountered many systems that use circulating water for cooling; generally, the flow rate of the material on the process side is related to the overall load of the system, which makes it difficult to adjust this flow rate； Generally, the return flow rate of the circulating water is adjusted to control the process temperature ；
Temperature control valves are generally used in series to regulate the flow rate of the heating medium, usually at the outlet
It depends on your process requirements... Generally, if a temperature control valve assembly is used, it is installed at the outlet in a cooler area... to control the opening degree via feedback
