Tube bundle heat exchangers - Import export

Whatever the distillation or filtering requirement of the vessel, including batch or continuous operation, we can build a column to meet most application needs. These columns can be built in a variety of sizes and can be furnished for atmospheric pressure, or designed for internal and external pressure.

The thermal incinerator (TI for short) is a system which converts gas or vaporous pollutants found in exhaust gas into non-polluting compounds by way of direct combustion. This machine is characterized by: The thermal incinerator (TI for short) is a proven and robust plant for the conversion of organic pollutants (VOCs, etc.). Today it is used especially for processes which involve high exposure to condensation or dust, or for specialized solutions requiring greater heat recovery potential. An example of this would be exhaust gases containing plasticizers or siloxane. The modular design of the combustion chamber and heat exchanger especially is conducive to servicing and cleaning compared to other designs. The polluted air is forced by means of a centrifugal fan into the tube bundle heat exchanger where it circulates around the tube bundle in a cross-current fashion. The heat exchanger can be designed for an efficiency of up to 70%. The pollutants are converted in the combustion chamber at a temperature of around 760 °C. After extensive heat transfer to the raw noxious gas, the cooled clean gas leaves the plant, where it can be supplied to various heat recovery systems (or a combination of several). The auxiliary burners can be operated with natural gas or propane or light heating oil.

Tubes wound into a spiral shape Coaxial heat exchangers consist of two or more pipe coils, which are routed into one another and wound up in a spiral shape. The primary medium runs in countercurrent to the secondary medium. Fast temperature exchange This countercurrent design achieves a very rapid temperature transition with high efficiency between the liquids. Due to the spiral shape, the rapid temperature exchange between the liquids is achieved in a very small space. No cleaning or maintenance required Another advantage is the encapsulation of both liquids from environmental influences. There is practically no cleaning or maintenance effort due to pollution from the environment. The coaxial heat exchanger also does not require any seals that require maintenance. Condenser or evaporator function Coaxial heat exchangers can be used for both condenser and evaporator functions.

Temperature control of gaseous and liquid media Flat tube heat exchangers are generally used as air / air or air / liquid heat exchangers. Flat tube heat exchangers are used where the (exhaust) air is polluted and the installation space is limited. In heat recovery in particular, there are numerous applications for flat tube heat exchangers as so-called exhaust gas / exhaust air heat exchangers. Little installation space and less pressure loss While the rows of tubes in smooth tube heat exchangers consist of round tubes, the rows of tubes in flat tube heat exchangers have a special profile (see illustration). This special tube profile offers advantages over the round profile in certain applications. Flat tube heat exchangers require less installation space than smooth tube heat exchangers with the same exchange area and are therefore also lighter.

Air-water / air-air heat exchanger as smooth tube heat exchanger up to 1,000 ° C Smooth tube heat exchanger as an air / water heat exchanger In the case of air-water heat exchangers (also called gas-water heat exchangers), a temperature exchange takes place between a gas (usually air) and a liquid. As a rule, the liquid medium flows inside the pipes, while the gaseous medium flows around the pipes outside the pipes. Smooth tube heat exchangers can cover various areas of application: heating, cooling and condensing as well as heat recovery. Smooth tube heat exchanger as air-to-air heat exchanger Smooth tube heat exchangers are also often used as air-to-air heat exchangers. In this application, a gas (e.g. exhaust air or exhaust gases) flows inside the pipes and a gas (e.g. fresh air) outside the pipes around the pipes.

Customized air-water heat exchangers for industrial use Three types of air-water heat exchangers Three different designs o air-water heat exchangers The Anthermo GmbH delivers three different designs of air-water heat exchangers: Finned tube heat exchangers Lamella heat exchangers Straight tube heat exchangers These heat exchangers are designed in a way, that inside the tube water or another liquid circulates. The air flows around outside the tubes or the fins/lamellas. The connection between the fins and the tube is used to enlarge the space for heat transfer between the liquid and the gas fluid. The technical figures (for ex. amount of air, temperature, pressure, waste of air) can be different for the air-water heat exchanger. Also the operating conditions and the environment conditions can vary from application to application.

Customized air-air heat exchanger for the industry (up to 1.000°C) Hot outgoing air and cold incoming air Very often hot exhaust gas gets out in the environment without any use. On the other hand cold incoming air must be lead into the production process and shall be warmed. This occurs for example very often within drying technology. In this case air-air heat exchangers can be used very efficient in heat recovery. As result you have great potential to save energy expenses. Three types of air-air heat exchangers The Anthermo GmbH delivers three types of different air-air-heat exchangers: cross-flow heat exchanger straight-tube heat exchanger flat-tube heat exchanger The technical figures (for ex. amount of air, temperature, pressure, waste of air) can be different for the air-air heat exchanger. Also the operating conditions and the environment conditions can vary from application to application.

Different applications require different designs for an optimal fit, so we provide Shell & Tube heat exchangers in single tube design with plain, low and high fin tubes and also with compact fin bundles. The plain tube design is most suitable if media have similar heat transfer properties, where the compact fin design means the best possible performance if there is a substantial difference in heat transfer rate, for example when exchanging heat between oil and water. The low and high fin single tube solution is between the previous two designs in order to further optimize on flow, pressure drop and velocities of media.
