The Plate Heat Exchanger (PHE) is an advanced heat transfer device designed for high-efficiency thermal exchange between fluids. It consists of a series of corrugated metal plates stacked together, forming separate channels for hot and cold fluids. The plates are sealed with gaskets or permanently brazed/welded, ensuring leak-proof operation. PHEs are widely used in HVAC, power plants, chemical processing, food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, and marine industries.
Working Principle
The Plate Heat Exchanger operates by allowing two separate fluids to flow through alternating channels between the plates. The hot fluid transfers heat to the cold fluid through the thin metal plates, without any direct contact between the two liquids. The high turbulence created by the corrugated plates enhances heat transfer efficiency while minimizing fouling and scaling.
Heat Transfer Process:
1. Hot and cold fluids enter through separate inlet ports.
2. Fluids flow through alternating narrow channels between the plates.
3. Heat is transferred through the metal plates from the hot fluid to the cold fluid.
4. Fluids exit through separate outlet ports, maintaining efficient thermal separation.
Types of Plate Heat Exchangers
Type | Description | Applications |
Gasketed PHE | Uses replaceable gaskets for flexibility and easy maintenance. | HVAC, food processing, chemical plants. |
Brazed PHE | Compact, sealed plates with no gaskets; ideal for high-pressure and high-temperature applications. | Refrigeration, oil cooling, residential heating. |
Welded PHE | Fully welded plates for extreme conditions, with no gaskets. | Petrochemical, power generation, offshore industries. |
Semi-Welded PHE | Combination of welded and gasketed plates, balancing durability and flexibility. | Chemical processing, ammonia refrigeration. |
Key Features & Benefits
✅ High Thermal Efficiency – Advanced plate designs enhance heat transfer rates, reducing energy consumption.
