Alfa Laval TK20Gasketed plate-and-frame heat exchanger

.

ApplicationThe Alfa Laval industrial semi welded line of plate heatexchangers is used for efficient heating and cooling ofaggressive media, including heat recovery, condensation andevaporation in refrigeration installations.

Benefits• Alfa Laval has global presence• Alfa Laval has global service organization• Part of a large portofolio of heat transfer products• High serviceability - Possible to open the PHE for

inspection and cleaning• Compact design• Flexible configuration - Heat transfer area can be modified• Leakage-proof design of the welded channels with

minimum gasket contact

DesignThe semi-welded plate heat exchanger consists of a packageof cassettes, each cassette consists of two welded corrugatedmetal plates with portholes for the passage of the two fluidsbetween which heat transfer will take place. Every cassetteis fitted with gaskets, which seal the channels and direct thefluids.

The number of plates is determined by the flow rates, physicalproperties of the fluids, pressure drops and temperatureprogram. The plate corrugations promote fluid turbulence andsupport the plates against differential pressure.

The materials of gaskets are selected for safe use dependingon media type and temperature. The attachment of thegaskets is glue-free, which makes them easy to replace evenwith the plates still hanging in the frame.

The carrying bar and guiding bar are fixed to the stationaryframe plate and the supporting column. The pressure plateand plate package is movable along the upper carrying barand located by the lower guiding bar. Connections are locatedin the frame plate. Depending on the application, connectionscan also be located in the pressure plate.

Working principleChannels are formed between the plates and the corner portsare arranged so that the two media flow through alternatechannels. The heat is transferred through the plates betweenthe channels. Complete counter-current or co-current flow,depending on the application, is created for highest possibleefficiency. The corrugation of the plates provides the passagebetween the plates, supports each plate against the adjacentone and enhances the turbulence, resulting in efficient heattransfer.
