MoreA welded plate and frame heat exchanger is a compact, high-performance thermal transfer device designed for demanding industrial applications. Unlike traditional gasketed plate heat exchangers, this type features permanently welded plates, eliminating the need for gaskets and enhancing durability under extreme conditions. These exchangers are widely used in industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, power generation, and HVAC due to their superior heat transfer efficiency, space-saving design, and ability to handle high pressures and temperatures. The welded construction ensures leak-proof operation, making them ideal for aggressive media like corrosive fluids or refrigerants. With customizable configurations, they offer tailored solutions for specific thermal requirements while maintaining low maintenance costs and long service life.
Welded plate and frame heat exchangers operate on the principle of conductive and convective heat transfer between two fluids separated by thin, corrugated metal plates. The plates are laser-welded in an alternating pattern to create separate flow channels for hot and cold fluids, maximizing surface area for efficient thermal exchange. As fluids pass through these channels in a counter-current or parallel flow arrangement, heat is transferred from the hotter medium to the cooler one without mixing. The corrugated plate design induces turbulence, enhancing heat transfer coefficients while minimizing fouling and pressure drop. Advanced models can achieve thermal efficiencies exceeding 90%, with some applications reaching temperature approach differences as low as 1°C. Their modular construction allows for easy scalability, enabling performance adjustments by adding or removing plate packs to meet changing process demands.
