The disclosure relates to a heat transfer assembly for a rotary regenerative heat exchanger. The assembly includes a rotor arranged between at least two separated fluid flow passages passing flow axially through the rotor, where each flow passage is connected to a sector part of the rotor. The assembly further includes a plurality of channels in the rotor for flowing a fluid through the rotor, each of the channels is enclosed by heat transfer and heat accumulating surfaces in the rotor, and the heat transfer and heat accumulating surfaces of the channels are made in a material providing an average axial thermal conductivity less than 100 W/mK arranged to reduce the Longitudinal Heat Conductivity of the rotor.

There is disclosed a heat exchanger apparatus, comprising flat heat exchange plates positioned parallel to each other, and adjustable spacers provided near each vertical edge of the flat heat exchange plates to form a material flow channel. In an embodiment, each adjustable spacer is configured to be adjustable via one or more angular adjustment mechanisms to form a material flow channel with one of a consistent volume channel, a reducing volume channel, and an increasing volume channel. The adjustable spacers are configured to receive spacer extensions to adjust the width of the spacers. The spacer extensions form extend the face of the spacers with a flat or profiled material contact face.

A cooling system including a first sheet steel item having a first surface configured to accommodate one or more objects to be cooled, and a second surface joined to a first surface of a second sheet steel item forming a shell. The items may be joined by a weld, a rivet or a plurality thereof. At least one of the second surface of the first sheet steel item and the first surface of the second sheet steel item may be formed to produce one or more conduits for forming one or more channels, whereby said joining forms said channels for coolant in a space between the second surface of the first sheet steel item and the first surface of the second sheet steel item.

A heat exchanger, including a heat exchanger tube for guiding a first medium in its interior, and also at least one connection for a second medium, wherein the region around the heat exchanger tube is provided by an open-pored, in particular solid, material, preferably a body of such a material, into which the second medium in particular can enter.

The present disclosure relates to a wavy smoke tube structure of a boiler, which improves heat exchange efficiency of a smoke tube. The wavy smoke tube structure includes: a main body formed in a columnar shape and having a space therein; a plurality of first concave portions concavely formed along a first side portion in a longitudinal direction of the main body; a plurality of second concave portions concavely formed along a second side portion in the longitudinal direction of the main body opposite to the first side portion and each positioned between a pair of the first concave portions to face them; and a plurality of blocking grooves formed in a pair of sidewall portions provided between the first side portion and the second side portion.
