Seal structure for heat exchanger and heat exchanger
In a seal structure for a heat exchanger, the seal structure being mounted on a baffle plate disposed in a shell included in the heat exchanger and being partially in contact with a wall surface on an inner surface side of the shell, the seal plate is composed of a plurality of thin plates which are laminated; the thin plates are in contact with the wall surface while being curved by an elastic deformation; a contact thin plate serving as one of the thin plates located on an outermost side of the curve is in contact with the wall surface; and an outer surface of the contact thin plate serving as a surface on an outside of the curve among surfaces arranged in a thickness direction of the contact thin plate is in contact with the wall surface so as to restrain seal performance from deteriorating.

Heat exchanger closure assemblies and methods of using and installing the same
A heat exchanger assembly including an elongated tubular heat exchanger enclosure defining an interior chamber. A tube sheet is positioned within the interior chamber of the heat exchanger enclosure separating the interior chamber into a shell side and a channel side. The interior portion is configured to removably receive a tube bundle positioned within the shell side of the interior chamber. An annular sleeve member is positioned within the channel side of the interior chamber of the heat exchanger enclosure. An annular elastic torsion member is positioned within the channel side of the interior chamber of the heat exchanger such that the sleeve member is positioned between the tube sheet and the elastic torsion member. The elastic torsion member has an inner circumference deflectable relative to its outer circumference for torsioning the elastic torsion member.
