MULTIPLE PASS OR MULTIPLE FLUID HEAT EXCHANGE APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR USING SAME
20190154343 · 2019-05-23 ·

A heat exchanger with a uniquely designed header system which allows tubes carrying independent products to exchange heat with a product in one common shell. Multiple tube sheets provide for tubes carrying different independent products to exchange heat with the product passing through the shell side of the exchanger. The design advantages to this heat exchanger system are threefold, this exchanger design eliminates the need for multiple heat exchangers that perform the same task, it greatly reduces the size and footprint of a traditionally designed multiple heat exchanger systems, which rely on multiple independent heat exchangers to perform the same task, and lastly this new designed heat exchanger reduces the high cost of having to use multiple exchangers to obtain the same results.
