A heat exchanger includes a plurality of heat transfer parts arranged in a first direction and spaced apart from each other, the plurality of heat transfer parts extending in a second direction and allowing refrigerant to flow through inside the plurality of heat transfer parts; a first header extending in the first direction and connected to one end of each of the plurality of heat transfer parts; a second header extending in the first direction and connected to an other end of each of the plurality of heat transfer parts; and a support extending along the first direction and the second direction and having an opening, the support being located at at least one face of the plurality of heat transfer parts in a third direction that is perpendicular to the first direction and the second direction, the support being fixed to the first header and the second header.

There is disclosed herein a heat exchanger and an associated method of manufacture. The heat exchanger comprises a flow conduit for accommodating flow of a heat transfer fluid. The conduit is wound around a central axis so as to form a plurality of turns, for example in a helical fashion. A support member for the conduit is formed of a sheet material shaped to extend in a circumferential direction about the central axis, wherein the support member is common to said plurality of turns. A plurality of fasteners are arranged to attach the conduit to the support member at spaced locations along its length.

A heat exchanger devices for operations in heavy liquid metal coolant mediums that ensures reliable fixation and spacing of heat exchanger tubes. A first option includes one supporting spacer grid 1 consisting of a cylindrical shell 2 and two or more tiers of plates 3 and 4 spaced apart at the preset gap, while the width of each plate lies within the plane which is parallel to the shell axis; ends of all plates are fixed to the shell such that plates of any tier are parallel to each other and located at the preset gap; plates of different tiers are criss-crossed at an angle of 60 degrees along the shell axles and fastened together at the crossing points. A second option includes three dividers which run through the cylinder axis; their ends are connected to the shell and are spaced at an angle of 60 degrees.

A baffle (i.e., tube support) for use in a shell-and-tube heat exchange reactor, such as, for example, an ethylene oxide (EO) reactor, is provided that accommodates reduced tube pitch, and thus more catalyst packed tubes can be inside the reactor. The baffle, which can be referred to herein as a corrugated grid support, includes a plurality of corrugated stainless steel strips which sit into each other and form a grid pattern having tube openings. Each tube opening is configured to permit a catalyst packed tube to be inserted therein, while allowing a sufficient open area along the shell side of the tube to permit coolant to flow through the reactor.

A baffle for a shell-and-tube heat exchanger. The baffle including a flat plate with a region having a plurality of annular elements designed for receiving the tubes of the shell-and-tube heat exchanger, arranged in at least two rows, wherein a row is staggered with respect to an adjacent row, wherein the outer diameter of the annular element is less than 130% of the inner diameter of the annular element, and wherein each annular element is joined with all of its adjacent annular elements by a bridging structure in the plane of the plate, oriented along a line connecting the centers of two adjacent annular elements, thereby defining a plurality of openings in the plate. A shell-and-tube heat exchanger, a method for heating a liquid composition, a method for stripping a liquid composition including urea, carbamate, ammonia and water, and a method for producing a solid, particulate, urea-based composition.

A heat exchanger includes a body portion and a pair of end plates at least partially forming an enclosure with the body portion. A plurality of tubes extend through at least one of the body portion and the pair of end plates. At least one tube sheet includes a plurality of openings with a corresponding one of the plurality of tubes located in one of the plurality of openings. The tube sheet is made of a material which expands in the presence of refrigerant.

A holding system (101, 102, 103) for holding at least one pipe, comprising a comb including a bar and parallel teeth perpendicular to the bar. A blocking device (30) consisting essentially of a pin, serves to prevent a pipe passing between two of the teeth from moving away from the bar. The holding system further comprises two supports (40A, 40B), positioned at the ends of the comb, and which hold the comb so as to allow rotation thereof around the axis of the bar. A method for mounting a heat exchanger (100) comprising such a holding system.

A radiator includes a radiator frame, an array of tube assemblies each including a coolant tube and a tube clip supported in the radiator frame, and a lateral bump stop fitted between the array of tube assemblies and the radiator frame. The lateral bump stop includes cushions arranged in a staggered cushion pattern complementary to a staggered packing pattern of the tube assemblies with each of the cushions in contact with the tube clip of one of the tube assemblies.

The present invention relates to a thermal battery having an enclosure (2) containing a bundle (3) comprising tubes (3) of encapsulated phase change material, the bundle (3) being formed by a stack of banks of tubes (3), said banks comprising tubes (3) placed parallel to one another and being connected by bracing and supporting bars (5), said bars (5) comprising, on at least one of their faces, individual housings separated from one another by a lateral wall, each housing being capable of receiving one tube (3).
