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 method of custom manufacturing a flame arrestor includes providing a housing having an interior surface and an exterior surface where the exterior surface of the housing is shaped to fit within a fluid passageway. The method includes forming, using an additive manufacturing technique, a three-dimensional lattice structure by depositing a first material onto the interior surface of the housing in a predetermined pattern. The lattice structure includes a plurality of connected lattice members forming channels extending from a first end to a second end of the three-dimensional lattice structure. An element of a second material is provided adjacent to the three-dimensional lattice structure. The second material is different than the first material and the element is configured to draw heat away from fluid flowing through the plurality of channels.

A steam generator includes a lower integrated tubesheet and plenum (ITP) configured to receive feedwater and a first set of heat transfer tubes fluidly coupled to a plurality of stubs protruding from a first side of the lower ITP. A second set of heat transfer tubes fluidly couples to plurality of stubs protruding from a second side of the lower ITP. The first set of heat transfer tubes is coiled in a substantially clock-wise direction, and the second set of heat transfer tubes is coiled in a substantially counter-clockwise direction. The steam generator further includes an upper ITP fluidly coupled to the first and second set of heat transfer tubes, wherein the feedwater entering the lower ITP is converted to steam in the first and second sets of heat transfer tubes. The upper ITP is configured to transport the steam away from the steam generator.

Disclosed herein is an eyebrow coil jacket, a heat control apparatus of a reactor using the eyebrow coil jacket, and a method for manufacturing the heat control apparatus of the reactor. According to the present invention, it is possible to provide an eyebrow coil jacket that is capable of increasing the heat control area of the reactor even when applied to a large-sized reactor so that a heat control amount of the heat control apparatus is improved 20% more than when a half pipe coil is used, a heat control apparatus of a reactor using the eyebrow coil jacket, and a method for manufacturing the heat control apparatus of the reactor.

A heat exchanger has a heat-exchanger unit includes one or more substantially coaxial coiled tubes and a casing for housing the heat-exchanger unit. The casing has a first end wall, a second end wall, and a peripheral part between the two end walls. Each tube has a first end and a second end. The heat-exchanger unit is supported by the first end wall of the casing, with the first end and the second end of each tube that is located substantially at the first end wall of the casing.

A flame cell of a flame arrestor may include a body of a first material having a first end, a second end, and a plurality of channels formed in the body and extending from the first end to the second end of the body. The flame cell may also include an element of a second material coupled to the body, the second material being different from the first material. The element may be configured to draw heat away from fluid flowing through the plurality of channels.
