Heat Transfer Theory
The laws of physics always allow the driving energy in a
system to flow to equilibrium. Heat dissipates when there is a temperature
difference.
Heat Exchangers follow the principle of equalization. With a
plate heat exchanger, heat cuts the surface and separates the hot medium from
the cold. So heating and cooling fluids and gases use minimal energy levels.
The theory of heat transfer between medium and fluid occurs
when:
- Heat is always
transferred from hot to cold media.
- There must always be a temperature difference between the
mediums.
- The heat lost from the hot medium equals the amount of
heat obtained by the cold medium.
To solve the thermal problem, let's use the plate heat
exchanger calculation method.
What is Plate Heat Exchanger
The plate heat exchanger design consists of several heat
transfer plates. Held by a fixed plate and loose pressure plate to form a
complete unit. Each heat transfer plate has a gasket arrangement, providing two
separate duct systems.
The gasket arrangement allows flow through in a single
channel. This allows the primary and secondary media to be in opposing
currents. The media does not mix due to gasket design.

Advantages of Plate Heat Exchanger
- Heat transfer precision - improved temperature approach,
actual countercurrent flow, 80-90% less volume of containment.
- Low costs - low capital investment, installation costs,
limited maintenance and operating costs.
- Best reliability - reduces rot, stress, wear and
corrosion.
- Responsible - the least energy consumption for most
process effects, less cleaning.
- Easily expandable capacity - adjustable plates on existing
frames.
