Surface heat exchangers are industrial devices that isolate hot and cold fluids through a solid wall, transferring heat through conduction and convection. Their core structures include various types such as shell-and-tube and plate heat exchangers. Shell-and-tube heat exchangers have five basic configurations, including fixed tube sheet and floating head types, while plate heat exchangers use a molded welded plate structure. This equipment is manufactured according to ISO 9001 quality management system standards, possessing robust structure and resistance to high pressure and high temperature. It is mainly used in heating and cooling processes in chemical, petroleum, and power industries.

 

Surface heat exchangers allow two fluids at different temperatures to flow in a space separated by a wall. Heat exchange occurs between the two fluids through conduction at the wall surface and convection at the wall surface. Early forms included shell-and-tube, double-tube, and other types of heat exchangers.
