PLATE HEAT EXCHANGER AND ITS USE AS LIQUEFIED NATURAL GAS VAPORIZER
A plate heat exchanger, which includes a flexible structure and/or a heating channel between the first support end plate of the plate pack and the first end plate of the outer casing, and/or an inner tube arranged inside the inlet connection tube of the first heat exchange medium for improving plate heat exchanger's ability to withstand thermal stresses caused by temperature differences, e.g. when using in heating of liquefied natural gas.
HEAT EXCHANGER
A plate-type heat exchanger, in which plates are stacked on top of each other as a stack and connected to each other in a sealed manner, fluid channels being formed between adjacent plates in each case, the stack of plates being divided into a first stack region and a second stack region, the first stack region forming an evaporator having first fluid channels and second fluid channels, and the second stack region forming an internal heat exchanger having third fluid channels and fourth fluid channels.
Enthalpy exchanger
A heat and humidity exchanger comprises panels made up of membrane sheets attached on either side of a separator. Channels extend across each panel between the separator and the membrane sheets. The panels are much stiffer than the membrane sheets. Panels are stacked in a spaced apart relationship to provide an ERV core. Spacing between adjacent panels may be smaller than a thickness of the panels.
A HEAT EXCHANGER WITH INDENTATIONS FOR AVOIDING STAGNANT MEDIA
A brazed plate heat exchanger (10) comprises an end plate (11) and a stack of heat exchanger plates (12, 12a, 12b) provided with a pattern comprising ridges (R) and grooves (G) adapted to form contact points (16) between neighbouring heat exchanger plates such that the heat exchanger plates form interplate flow channels for media to 5 exchange heat over the heat exchanger plates, the heat exchanger plates further being provided with port openings (O1-O4) for selective fluid communication with the flow channels, wherein the port openings are surrounded by port opening areas (13) for sealing against a corresponding port opening area of a neighbouring heat exchanger plate, wherein neighbouring heat exchanger plates are connected by brazing joints at said contact points (16), wherein the end plate (11) is provided with port openings (O1-O4) and flat areas (14) around the port openings in a common plane, wherein a plurality of ridges (R) of the heat exchanger plates, in an area overlapping any of said flat areas (14) of the end plate (11), are formed with an indentation (15), wherein said indentations (15) of a heat exchanger plate (12, 12a) adjacent the end plate (11) connect a flow channel, formed between the end plate and the adjacent heat exchanger plate (12, 12a), with a neighbouring flow channel to allow distribution of media between them. A brazing joint for connecting neighbouring heat exchanger plates is arranged between the port opening area (13) and at least one of said indentations (15).
A PLATE HEAT EXCHANGER
A plate heat exchanger (500) includes a plurality of heat exchanger plates (510, 520, 530, 540) provided with a pressed pattern adapted to provide contact points keeping the heat exchanger plates on a distance from one another such that interplate flow channels are formed between said plates, said heat exchanger being provided with interplate flow 5 channels (510-520, 530-540) for a first medium exchanging heat with a second medium in interplate flow channels (520-530) and a third medium in interplate flow channels (540-510), wherein the interplate flow channels are in selective fluid communication with port openings (550, 560, 570, 580, 630, 620) for the first medium, the second medium and the third medium. The heat exchanger (500) comprises first and second integrated suction gas heat exchanger sections (ISGHX1, ISGHX2) provided in the vicinity of port openings (550, 560, 570, 580) for the second medium and third medium. Every other heat exchanger plate is formed with a pressed first pattern of ridges and grooves, and the other heat exchanger plates are formed with a pressed second pattern of ridges and grooves, wherein the first pattern of ridges and grooves is different from 15 the second pattern of ridges and grooves.
HEAT EXCHANGER AND REFRIGERATION SYSTEM AND METHOD
A brazed plate heat exchanger (100) including a plurality of first and second heat exchanger plates (110, 120), wherein the first heat exchanger plates (110) are formed with a first pattern of ridges (R1) and grooves (G1), and the second heat exchanger plates (120) are formed with a second pattern of ridges (R2a, R2b) and grooves (G2a, G2b) providing contact points between at least some crossing ridges and grooves of neighbouring plates under formation of interplate flow channels for fluids to exchange heat, said interplate flow channels being in selective fluid communication port openings (O1, O2, O3, O4). The first pattern of ridges and grooves is different from the second pattern of ridges and grooves, so that an interplate flow channel volume on one side of the first heat exchanger plates (110) is different from the interplate flow channel volume on the opposite side of the first heat exchanger plates (110). The heat exchanger (100) is provided with a retrofit port heat exchanger (400). A system and a method are also disclosed.
