Apparatuses, systems and methods are directed to heat exchangers that are made of microchannel tubes and that have offset fins of various geometries and density. The heat exchanger coils can be implemented in various refrigeration and/or heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) units or systems thereof.

A method for operating a condenser, wherein the condenser is designed for condensing water vapor to form water and during operation a condensate having water accumulates in the condenser, wherein on the condensate surface a plurality of floating bodies are arranged on the condensate, wherein the floating bodies float on the condensate, wherein a large number of floating bodies are used in such a way that the condensate surface is covered, wherein the floating bodies are of spherical and/or sphere-like design, and wherein floating bodies with different sizes are used.

A scraped surface heat exchanger comprising a heat exchange surface, a rotatable shaft, said shaft having at least one mounting means, and a sweeping element wherein said sweeping element comprises, a blade having at least one aperture for engaging with the mounting means such that the sweeping element is connected to the mounting means and characterised in that when the rotatable shaft is rotating relative to the heat exchange surface the sweeping element has substantially no movement relative to the rotating shaft and said sweeping element has substantially no contact with the inner surface of the heat exchanger.

A contamination barrier for protecting heat exchanger units, for example, condensers of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. The contamination barrier includes a filtration media which allows particles small enough to pass through a condenser assembly to pass through the contamination barrier, while preventing larger particles from passing therethrough. The contamination barrier inhibits the buildup of debris and other contamination within the condenser assembly while reducing or eliminating the need to clean the barrier, and without significantly reducing airflow through the condenser assembly, thereby promoting the ability of the condenser assembly to maintain operational efficiency. The contamination barrier is adaptable to be applied to a variety of heat exchanger units.

An evaporator (10) includes a substantially plate-like body member (12) defining an operatively outer surface (14) and an operatively inner surface (16), both surfaces (14, 16) being substantially smooth to inhibit detritus from attaching to the body member (12). The body member (12) is shaped to cause incoming fluid from which heat is to be extracted, in use, to follow an extended, circuitous path past the body member (12) initially along the outer (surface 14) of the body member (12) prior to the fluid impinging on the inner surface (16) of the body member (12).

A packing module includes first and second flow paths which exchange heat between water sprayed from above and air flowing from below; a first import portion for importing water sprayed from one side of the packing module into the first flow path; a second import portion for importing water sprayed from the other side of the packing module into the second flow path; a first export portion for guiding water flowing out from the first water path to one side of the packing module for discharging; and, a second export portion for guiding water flowing out from the second water path to the other side of the packing module for discharging. Two flow paths in the packing module operate in different operation modes, so that water or wind flows through one flow path to cool water while air flows through the other flow path for heat exchange through partition walls.

Disclosed is a system for preventing scaling and deposit formation in a sterile air heat exchanger of a system for aseptic packaging within laminated carton packages, and a process for eliminating hydrogen peroxide residues in aseptic laminated carton packaging systems, characterized in that it comprises providing a supply of water for scrubbing sterile air that has the following properties: (a) maximum conductivity at 20° C. of 2.0 micromhos; and (b) a maximum silica content of 0.1 ppm.
