Semi-welded plate heat exchanger
Applications
Heating and cooling of aggressive media. Duties in
refrigeration installations.
Standard design
The plate heat exchanger consists of a pack of corrugated
metal plates with portholes for the passage of the two fluids
between which heat transfer will take place.
The plate pack is assembled between a fix frame plate and
a movable pressure plate and compressed by tightening
bolts. The semi-welded plates combine the flexibility and
serviceability of the gasketed heat exchangers with the
assurance against leakage of the welded heat exchangers.
In the plate arrangement, every other channel is welded,
and every other channel is gasketed. The number of plates
is determined by the flow rate, physical properties of the
fluids, pressure drop and temperature program. The plate
corrugations promote fluid turbulence and support the plates
against differential pressure.
The semi-welded plate heat exchanger is provided with
gaskets specifically designed to resist aggressive media.
The non-aggressive med ia flows in the gasketed channels.
This construction means that it can easily be dismantled, for
example for exchanging gaskets or for inspection and cleaning
. the gasketed channels.

Working principle
Channels are formed between the plates and the corner ports
are arranged so that the two media flow through alternate
channels. The heat is transferred through the plate between
the channels, and complete counter-current flow is created
for highest possible efficiency. The corrugation of the plates
provides the passage between the plates, supports each
plate against the adjacent one and enhances the turbulence,
resulting in efficient heat transfer.
