Heat exchange system and method of assembly

A method of constructing a coil wound heat exchange module and transporting and installing the coil wound heat exchange module at a plant site, such as an natural gas liquefaction plant. A module frame is constructed and attached to a heat exchanger shell prior to telescoping of a coil wound mandrel into the shell. The module frame includes a lug and two saddles that remain attached to the shell throughout the process and when the heat exchanger is operated. The lug and saddles are constructed and located to stabilize the shell during construction, telescoping and transport (when in a horizontal orientation), and when the shell is installed at the plant site (in a vertical orientation). The lugs and saddles are adapted to allow for thermal expansion and contraction of the shell when it is transitioned from ambient to operating temperature and vice versa.

Double-pipe heat exchanger including integrated connector

A double-pipe heat exchanger including a heat exchange pipe and an integrated connector. The heat exchange pipe may include an inner pipe forming a first flow path, and an outer pipe accommodating the inner pipe therein and forming a second flow path outside the inner pipe. The integrated connector may include a main body including, at one side thereof, a heat exchange pipe engaging part with which one end of the heat exchange pipe is combined, a first connector flow path portion formed to be connected to the first flow path and discharging a first fluid flowing from the first flow path to an outside of the main body, and a second connector flow path portion formed to be connected to the second flow path and supplying a second fluid from the outside of the main body to the second flow path.

Dish washing machine with heat exchangers
11805963 · 2023-11-07 · ·

A dish washing machine including a housing having an interior wash space for washing dishes. The housing has a liquid inlet for adding a liquid to the dish washing machine. At least one rotating spray nozzle sprays the liquid onto dishes positioned within the interior wash space. The machine further includes a heating tank for heating the liquid which is supplied to the at least one rotating spray nozzle for spraying onto the dishes in the interior wash space. Two heat exchange systems are within the housing. The two heat exchange systems transfer heat from the liquid heated by the heating tank to the liquid added to the dish washing machine from the liquid inlet. A first one of the two heat exchange systems passes heat from water in the wash tank or the interior wash space to water in the first one of the two heat exchange systems.

Indirect Water Heater
20220243955 · 2022-08-04 ·

An example indirect water heater is disclosed having a water storage tank with a primary heat exchanger. A heating fluid inlet of the primary heat exchanger receives a heating fluid from an external heat source into the primary heat exchanger. A heating fluid outlet of the primary heat exchanger returns the heating fluid to the external heat source after traveling through the primary heat exchanger. A secondary heat exchanger has a water source inlet and a water source outlet. The secondary heat exchanger is provided in thermal connection with the primary heater exchanger to preheat a source water before discharging the source water from the water source outlet into the water storage tank.
