2. Plate heat exchanger - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plate_heat_exchanger

   The plate heat exchanger (PHE) is a specialized design well suited to transferring heat between medium- and low-pressure fluids. Welded, semi-welded and brazed heat exchangers are used for heat exchange between high-pressure fluids or where a more compact product is required. In place of a pipe passing through a chamber, there are instead two ...

3. Plate-fin heat exchanger - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plate-fin_heat_exchanger

   A plate-fin heat exchanger is made of layers of corrugated sheets separated by flat metal plates, typically aluminium, to create a series of finned chambers. Separate hot and cold fluid streams flow through alternating layers of the heat exchanger and are enclosed at the edges by side bars. Heat is transferred from one stream through the fin ...

4. Heat exchanger - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_exchanger

   Heat exchanger. A heat exchanger is a system used to transfer heat between a source and a working fluid. Heat exchangers are used in both cooling and heating processes. [1] The fluids may be separated by a solid wall to prevent mixing or they may be in direct contact. [2]

5. NTU method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTU_Method

   The number of transfer units (NTU) method is used to calculate the rate of heat transfer in heat exchangers (especially parallel flow, counter current, and cross-flow exchangers) when there is insufficient information to calculate the log mean temperature difference (LMTD). Alternatively, this method is useful for determining the expected heat ...

6. Pillow-plate heat exchanger - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pillow-plate_heat_exchanger

   Pillow-plate heat exchanger. Pillow-plate heat exchangers are a class of fully welded heat exchanger design, which exhibit a wavy, “pillow-shaped” surface formed by an inflation process. Compared to more conventional equipment, such as shell and tube and plate and frame heat exchangers, pillow plates are a quite young technology.

7. Shell-and-tube heat exchanger - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell-and-tube_heat_exchanger

   A shell-and-tube heat exchanger is a class of heat exchanger designs. [1][2] It is the most common type of heat exchanger in oil refineries and other large chemical processes, and is suited for higher-pressure applications. As its name implies, this type of heat exchanger consists of a shell (a large pressure vessel) with a bundle of tubes ...
