Standard design
The
gasket 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 plates are fitted with a gasket
which seals the inter plate channel and directs the
fluids into alternate channels. 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 frame plate
and the pressure plate are suspended from an upper
carrying bar and located by a lower guiding bar, both of
which are fixed to a support column. Connections are
located in the frame plate or, if either or both fluids
make more than a single pass within the unit, in the
frame and pressure plates.
Advantages
of the Baode Frame and Plate Heat Exchanger
*Space saving and energy efficient
Baode
plate heat exchanger are the
system builder¡¯s dream! With their compact designs
they require 20¨C50% less space in your system than a
comparable shell-and-tube unit. Since they require up to
80% less cooling media, you can fit smaller pumps that
will consume less energy.

*Five times more efficient than shell-and-tube
Baode plate heat exchanger offers up to five times
greater heat transfer efficiency than a comparable
shell-and-tube unit. The special plate pattern creates a
high level of turbulence which, in combination with the
low hold-up volume, ensures high heat transfer values.
This, in turn, gives you the temperature control you
need for efficient heating and cooling of wash liquids.
*Low maintenance requirements
The patented
design of Baode plate heat exchanger effectively
reduces fouling. When cleaning is needed, gasket plate
heat exchanger can easily be opened, giving access to
the plate surfaces.
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.
