The present invention discloses a high-temperature fluid transporting pipeline with a heat exchange apparatus installed therein, a suitable heat exchange apparatus and a heat exchange method, wherein heat contained in a high-temperature fluid can be recovered during the transportation thereof. The heat exchange apparatus comprises a heat exchange body inserted into the high-temperature fluid transporting pipeline, and a heat-receiving fluid coil installed therein. The method of heat exchange is that the high-temperature fluid heats an auxiliary fluid in a heat exchange cavity via a heat exchange panel of the heat exchange body in contact therewith, and the heated auxiliary fluid then conducts the heat to a heat-receiving fluid in the heat-receiving fluid coil. As an example, the high-temperature fluid is flue gas generated by combustion, the heat exchange apparatus of the present invention is inserted into a flue gas transporting pipeline, the auxiliary fluid is an inert gas such as air, and the air heated indirectly by the high-temperature flue gas conducts heat to fuel and/or oxygen-enriched gas (serving as an oxidant/combustion aid) flowing in the heat-receiving fluid coil.

The present invention discloses a high-temperature fluid transporting pipeline integrating a heat exchange apparatus, wherein heat contained in a high-temperature fluid can be recovered during the transportation thereof. The heat exchange apparatus comprises a hermetic heat exchange cavity, and a heat-receiving fluid coil installed therein. The method of heat exchange is that the high-temperature fluid heats an auxiliary fluid in the cavity via a heat exchange base plate of the heat exchange cavity in contact therewith, and the heated auxiliary fluid then conducts the heat to a heat-receiving fluid in the heat-receiving fluid coil. As an example, the high-temperature fluid is flue gas generated by combustion, an upper part of a flue gas transporting pipeline is replaced by the heat exchange apparatus of the present invention, the auxiliary fluid is an inert gas such as air, and the air heated indirectly by the high-temperature flue gas conducts heat to fuel and/or oxygen-enriched gas flowing in the heat-receiving fluid coil (as an oxidant/combustion aid).

A double wall plate heat exchanger (100) comprising a plurality of double wall plate heat exchanger elements (110, 120) formed with a ridges (R) and grooves (G) providing contact points between neighboring heat exchanger elements (110, 120) under formation of flow channels between them for fluids to exchange heat. The flow channels are in selective fluid communication with each other through port openings. Each of the heat exchanger elements (110, 120) comprises at least two joined plates and leakage channels are formed between the plates of each heat exchanger element (110, 120) for fluid leaking from a flow channel. The plates are provided with cooperating elevations (190) and indentations (200) forming leakage channels (210) extending across the ridges and grooves between the plates of each heat exchanger element (110, 120). At least one connecting space is formed between the plates to connect the leakage channels within the same heat exchanger element (110, 120), and each of the connecting spaces is connected to a leakage outlet.

A brazed plate heat exchanger (100; 200) comprises a number of heat exchanger plates (120a-120h; 201-204) provided with a pressed pattern of ridges (R) and grooves (G) adapted to keep the plates on a distance from one another by providing contact points between crossing ridges (R) and grooves (G) of neighbouring plates under formation of interplate flow channels for media to exchange heat, said interplate flow channels being in selective fluid communication with first, second, third and fourth large port openings (O1, O2, O3, O4; 210a, 210b, 210c, 210d) and first and second small port openings (SO1, SO2) for letting in fluids to exchange heat, characterized in that fluid passing between the first and second large port openings (O1, O2; 210a, 210b) exchanges heat with fluids passing between third and fourth port openings (O3, O4; 210c, 210d) over a first heat exchanging portion of each plate and fluid passing between the first and second small port openings (SO1, SO2) over a second portion of each plate.

A plate fin fluid processing device includes active layers, where each active layer includes a fin plate sandwiched between parting sheets so that an active fluid space is defined between the parting sheets. The active layers include an outermost active layer having an inlet and an outlet. A contingent layer body is positioned adjacent to the outermost active layer and includes a fin plate positioned between a parting sheet and a cap sheet. The contingent layer body has a fluid space that is sealed with respect to the atmosphere. A pressure monitoring system is in communication with the fluid space of the contingent layer body. An emergency pressure relief device is configured to release a pressure within the fluid space if a preset pressure is exceeded.

A gasket for a plate-type gasketed heat exchanger has on its surface at least one protrusion (1A) and at least one catch (1B), which enable the assembly of the gasket (1) to the heating plate (2) along the axis of heating plate manufacturing/pressing, with a press-in method, wherein each protrusion 1A is pressed into the corresponding cutout 2A in the heating plate, and perpendicular to the axis of heating plate manufacturing/pressing, with a catch-on method, wherein each catch 1B catches on the corresponding fragment of the profiled edge 2B of the heating plate.

A vessel includes first and second portions that are non-permeable to a fluid and a third portion that is permeable to fluid. The first potion defines at least one exterior wall defining an exterior container. The second portion defines at least one interior wall defining an interior container encapsulated by the exterior container. The third portion is positioned between the at least one exterior wall and the at least one interior wall, is integrally formed with the first portion and the second portion, and has a porous structure with non-uniform connected porosity.

A vessel includes an exterior container, an interior container, and a support structure. The exterior container is formed by an exterior wall that prevents transmission of a fluid. The interior container is by an interior layer disposed within the exterior container such that the exterior container encapsulates the interior container. The interior layer and the exterior wall are separated by a gap defining a barrier void. The interior layer prevents transmission of a fluid across the interior layer. The support structure is disposed within the barrier void between the exterior wall and the interior layer. The support structure comprises a lattice and is integrally formed with the exterior wall and the interior layer. The support structure is connected to and extends between the exterior wall and the interior layer.
