Discussion on gas-to-gas plate exchangers
Thread Content
It seems like not many air-to-air plate exchangers are being used, and there’s also no calculation software for them! I hope there can be exchanges in this area
Gas-to-gas is generally not suitable for plate exchangers, as the flow rate is relatively low. But it’s not absolutely true.
I’m sorry, but I have a question. I heard that when using plate exchangers for gas exchange, the efficiency is much higher than that of tube exchangers, and the volume required is also much smaller. The design cost is a bit higher, but the overall cost remains low
It depends on the specific industry or application. Relatively speaking, the heat exchange efficiency of plate exchangers is much higher than that of other types; however, it has limitations when dealing with gases at high flow rates
Limited by the plate exchanger openings, suitable for low flow rates
Should it be said that gas-to-gas heat exchangers with a large capacity can also be designed? I guess the cost just becomes relatively higher, right?
Any type of gas can be used. Key pressure property constraints. It’s better to have tubes that are more durable
Our gas-to-gas heat exchangers can withstand a maximum pressure of 10,000 Pa on each side; they are entirely imported from Switzerland, and their basic heat exchange efficiency can reach over 65%. You might want to learn more about me; I’ve just joined this forum. Please give me your guidance. Liu Wei from Bopu Fluids
Using plate exchangers for gas transfer results in high pressure drops, making it unsuitable; there are many limitations
We generally recommend a voltage drop of around 200. Only in some special high-temperature industries is a higher voltage drop required; basically, no company in China is capable of achieving such a high level of voltage drop, and this is also one of our strengths
