GEA Heat Exchanger Plates

1. Plate heat exchanger plates are the core components of plate heat exchangers. Heat transfer between the cold and hot fluids occurs on these plates, making them the primary heat transfer elements of the heat exchanger. Additionally, the plates must withstand the pressure difference between the two sides. Therefore, the selection of suitable plate types and flow channels for plate heat exchanger plates has a significant impact on the operation of the heat exchange equipment, heat transfer efficiency, fluid resistance, and other factors.

Applacations

Heat exchanger plate Choose:

• The choice of plate types and corrugation patterns for heat exchangers plate should be based on the specific heat transfer conditions and requirements. In situations where there is a large flow rate and a small allowable pressure drop, plates with low resistance should be selected. The selection of removable or brazed plate heat exchangers should be determined based on the pressure and temperature conditions of the heat transfer medium.
• For equipment with a large heat transfer area, it is not advisable to choose plates with excessively small individual plate areas. This is because having too many plates may result in low flow velocity between the plates, leading to a decrease in the overall heat transfer coefficient.

Production Process:

The production of stainless steel plates for plate heat exchangers involves several precise steps to ensure high-quality performance and longevity.

• Cutting and Leveling: Stainless steel plates are accurately cut using advanced machine tools to meet the specific design requirements. After cutting, a leveling treatment is applied to ensure a smooth and even surface. This step is crucial for maintaining efficient heat transfer capabilities.
• Stamping: The flattened plates undergo a meticulous stamping process using hydraulic presses. This process creates unique herringbone patterns on the plates, which significantly increase turbulence inside the heat exchanger. The controlled turbulence promotes optimal heat transfer by maximizing fluid contact with the plate surfaces. Special attention is given to maintaining precise control during stamping to prevent plate deformation or damage.
• Surface Treatment: To enhance corrosion resistance and optimize heat transfer performance, the plates undergo surface treatments such as polishing, sandblasting, or coating. The specific treatment method is selected based on the desired requirements and operating conditions. These treatments improve the plates' resistance to corrosion, fouling, and scaling, ensuring long-term efficiency and reliability.
