Article On Silicon Carbide Plate Heat Exchangers

 


Silicon carbide heat exchangers are used in chemical (pharmaceutical, pesticide, fine chemical, organic, inorganic) process systems for heat exchange of powerful corrosive media. Silicon carbide heat exchangers can tolerate highly corrosive mediums, including sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, hydrobromic acid, hydrofluoric acid, sulfonic acid, strong alkalis, organic solvents, oxidizers, and other highly corrosive acids.   


It is the only ceramic material that is not corroded by hydrofluoric acid, which is pressure free sintered silicon carbide. An ultra-large silicon carbide heat exchanger can withstand a vapour pressure of 16kg and a temperature of 210°C. It is made from double tube sheets, with the carbon steel tube sheets featuring high pressure and high temperature resistance. Other tube sheets use special carbon steel (PTFE reinforced carbon steel) to eliminate deformations caused by oversized PTFE sheets. Additionally, each silicon carbide tube is sealed with a locking nut, which meets the sealing requirements for a large tube sheet and facilitates equipment maintenance.

Difference between Different Heat Exchanger Systems

Image
  A heat exchanger is a device for transferring heat between two fluids, such as liquids, gases, or vapours, of different temperatures. Depending on the type of heat exchanger being used, the heat is transferred from gas to gas, liquid to liquid, or liquid to liquid through a solid separator, which prevents mixing of the fluids or direct fluid contact. Frame and Plate Heat Exchanger Corrugated parallel plates are separated from each other by gaskets that control the alternating flow of hot and cold fluid over the surface of the plates. By tightening bolts, a frame plate and a pressure plate compress gasketed plates together. Two upper bars and a lower guiding bar suspend the gasketed plates and the pressure plate. By removing or adding plates, it is easy to clean and change the capacity of this device. As heat transfers from the warmer to the cooler channel, hot and cold media flow in alternate channels with processed fluids. Heat Exchanger For Shells And Tube A heat exchan

Heat Exchangers In Nuclear Power Plants

Image
  Use Of Heat Exchangers In Nuclear Power Plants A heat exchanger is a device that transfers heat from a hot to a cold fluid. It is desirable to increase the temperature of one fluid while cooling another in many engineering applications. A heat exchanger achieves this double action economically. It can be used to cool one petroleum fraction while warming another, to cool air or other gases while compressing them, and to preheat combustion air supplied to boiler furnaces using hot flue gas as a heating medium. Among other uses, it is used to transfer heat from metals to water in atomic power plants and to reclaim heat energy from the exhaust of a gas turbine by transferring it to compressed air on its way to the combustion chambers. In fossil-fuel and nuclear power plants, gas turbines, heating, air-conditioning, refrigeration, and the chemical industry, heat exchangers are extensively used. When they serve a specific purpose, the devices are given different names.

How To Repair Boiler Tube

Image
  In a boiler, the work – in this case, heat transfer – is carried out by the boiler tubes . The type of boiler (firetube, water tube, etc.) may affect the orientation and layout of the boiler, but the tubes are still transferring heat from the fire side to the water side. It is for this reason that boiler tube maintenance and repair are essential. As a result of the large temperature gradients, boiler tubes are subjected to a great deal of stress, so the tube design, material, and thickness have been chosen carefully for optimum and efficient operation. As boiler tubes may be the most crucial component of most boilers, the importance of proper operation, maintenance, and repair cannot be understated.  To ensure compliance with all rules and regulations, boilers built to ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC) must be repaired by a National Board certified company. On board the ship, some of the common repairs made to the marine boiler are plugging of the tubes and replacing the
