A heat exchanger cleaning system comprises: a target rotating body which rotates around a rotation axis; a first inlet through which first gas on the target rotating body is introduced; and a first soot blower located in the inner space of the first inlet and including a first injection port through which a first substance is injected and a second injection port through which a second substance is injected, wherein a first distance of the first injection port from the rotation axis is substantially the same as a second distance of the second injection port from the rotation axis. A heat exchanger cleaning method using the heat exchanger cleaning system comprises: a step for positioning the first soot blower; a step for spraying the first substance and the second substance at the same time; and a step for removing foreign substances.

A heatsink comprising a heat exchange device having a plurality of heat exchange elements each having a surface boundary with respect to a heat transfer fluid, having successive elements or regions having varying size scales. According to one embodiment, an accumulation of dust or particles on a surface of the heatsink is reduced by a removal mechanism. The mechanism can be thermal pyrolysis, vibration, blowing, etc. In the case of vibration, adverse effects on the system to be cooled may be minimized by an active or passive vibration suppression system.

Systems and methods for cleaning a heat recovery steam generator system including tubes and fins associated therewith using deep cleaning alignment equipment are described. The deep cleaning alignment equipment primarily includes at least one wedge and at least one wand. The wedge may be an elongate wedge configured to maximize the surface area that contacts the tubes and fins, which in turn minimizes the amount of stress about any specific point of the tubes or the fins. Additionally, the wedge may be made of a soft, composite material, such as a high strength carbon fiber nylon. The composite material is softer than the material that makes the tubes and fins. As a result, when the wedge contacts the tubes and fins, the tubes and fins will not sustain damage. Instead, any damage that may occur would be to the wedge.
