High heat flux furnace cooler comprise CuNi pipe coils cast inside pours of high purity (99%-Wt) copper. The depth of front copper cover over the pipe coils in the hot face to manufacture into the casting is derived from a projection of the thermal and stress conditions existing at the cooler's end-of-campaign-life. CFD and/or FEA analyses and modeling is used for a trial-and-error zeroing in of the optimum geometries to employ in the original casting of CuNi pipe coils in high purity copper casting. Individual pipe coil positions to cast inside a copper casting mold are secured with devices that will not melt, cause thermal shear stresses, or be the source of contaminations or copper defects. Pipe bonding to the casting results because the differential coefficient of expansions of the pipes' and the casting's copper alloys involved do not exceed the yield strength of the casting copper during operational thermal cycling.

A system for receiving a disposable bag (44) has a receiving container (10) with a container interior for receiving the disposable bag (44) and a temperature-control hollow wall (20) that at least partially surrounds the container interior of the receiving container (10). A temperature-control unit controls the temperature of the container interior by will a temperature-control medium arranged in the temperature-control hollow wall (20) at a maximum pressure of about 1 bar.

The invention relates to a metering module (10), in particular for a process plant having a modular construction, having a metering system (24) for metering a fluid, a housing (32) which at least partly accommodates the metering system (24) and also a temperature control device for controlling the temperature of the interior of the housing (32), wherein the temperature control device has a plate heat exchanger (34) and at least a part of the housing (32) is formed by at least one plate structure (36) of this plate heat exchanger (34), in particular by at least one so-called heat exchanger plate. The invention also relates to a process plant having a modular construction for the production of a chemical and/or pharmaceutical product having such a metering module (10) and to a method for controlling the temperature of a metering device (24) for metering liquids.

Disclosed is a jacketed, tiered baffle, bioreactor tank comprising an outer cylindrical-shaped jacket and a cylindrical tank having an inner tank surface defining a chamber configured for supporting a flexible bag disposed within the chamber, and an outer tank surface having tiered baffles configured for routing a heat exchange fluid around the entirety of the outer tank surface, the cylindrical tank disposed axially within the outer cylindrical-shaped jacket. The outer cylindrical-shaped jacket is sealed to the cylindrical tank in a manner sufficient to prevent or minimize loss of the heat exchange fluid.

A heat exchange module for use in a chemical, pharmaceutical or biological reactor system includes a generally hollow body having an interior space for receiving a replaceable or single use reactant container, and at least one thermally conductive surface adapted to contact the replaceable reactant container to facilitate heat transfer, a fluid circulation path formed within the body between an outer wall of the body and an inner wall of the body through which a heat exchange fluid can be circulated, and at least one baffle protruding from the inner wall of the body into the interior space.

A temperature homogenizing container and a refrigerator having same. The container comprises a body and an accommodating space that is enclosed by the body. The body comprises several capillary tube cavities provided therein and allowing flow of a heat exchange medium. A micro-tooth structure is provided on the inner wall of each capillary tube cavity. The heat exchange medium may flow in the capillary tube cavities along an extension direction of the capillary tube cavities. By setting the container body to comprise several capillary tube cavities therein, the temperature homogenizing effect and heat exchange efficiency of the container are improved; by providing the micro-tooth structure, the heat exchange efficiency is further improved; the temperature difference of different areas in the container is reduced, and temperature homogenization in the container is achieved.

A method of cooling a liner in a plasma chamber. A recycle gas is contacted with or passed through the liner to cool the liner and pre-heat the recycle gas. The pre-heated gas is then recycled through the plasma chamber to become part of the plasma forming process. The method further comprises the liner is graphite, the recycle gas passes through at least one cooling channel present in the liner, at least one of the cooling channels are covered with at least one removable liner/channel cover, carbon deposits are formed from the presence of hydrocarbons in the recycle gas, at least one channel is formed in a spiral cooling channel pattern, at least one channel is formed in a substantially straight cooling channel pattern, and a plenum to aid in the production of an even distribution of cooling gas in the channels.

Heat exchanger assemblies for electronic devices are disclosed. A heat exchanger assembly may include a heat transfer body that has a face that forms open passageways. A cover structure may be attached to the heat transfer body in a manner to enclose the open passageways, thereby forming a heat exchanger assembly that includes enclosed fluid conduits. In this regard, the enclosed fluid conduits may form complex and intricate patterns within the heat exchanger assembly that are tailored to the heat requirements of a particular application. Heat exchanger assemblies as described herein may be thermally coupled to a center waveguide section of a spatial power-combining device. The enclosed fluid conduits may be tailored based on locations of amplifiers within the center waveguide section to provide improved thermal operation of the spatial power-combining device.
