Plate heat exchangers are mostly used in heating or air conditioning systems. If they are used in domestic hot water systems, they need to be equipped with hot water storage tanks and other equipment.

  What is plate heat exchanger, and what are its advantages and scope of application?

  The plate heat exchanger is a sheet metal (usually steel or stainless steel plate) stamped into a single plate with corrugated grooves of a certain shape, and then assembled into the required multi-plate group. At the edge of each two adjacent plates, butyl rubber and other materials are used as sealing gaskets to form the channel of the medium flow channel. The plate is provided with fluid inlet and outlet to make the two media flow and conduct heat exchange in their respective channel. Because of the complex shape of the channel ripple, although the medium flows at low speed, it will also form turbulence in the groove, which improves the heat exchange rate, and at the same time, the number of grooves increases the heat exchange area. It is a fast and efficient heat exchange equipment. The plate heat exchanger is composed of metal corrugated plate, fixed plate, movable splint, splint bolt, profile steel support, etc.

  The plate heat exchanger has the advantages of high heat transfer efficiency, small floor area, small heat loss, simple structure, easy handling and installation, easy disassembly, flexible adjustment of heat consumption, regular cleaning or replacement of plates, and the ability to increase the number of plates with the increase of heat consumption without replacing any equipment (for example, when the capacity of the volumetric heat exchanger cannot meet the demand and increase, the equipment must be replaced or increased).

  Plate heat exchangers are mostly used in heating or air conditioning systems. If they are used in domestic hot water systems, they need to be equipped with hot water storage tanks and other equipment.
