SUPERCHANGER units are plate and frame type heat
exchangers consisting of corrugated heat transfer plates, frames,
nozzles and tightening bolts. The corrugated plates are held in
between the stationary and moveable frames and are compressed
by tightening bolts. Optional shrouds are available on request.
The plates are equipped with elastomeric gaskets and have port
holes pierced in the corners. When the unit is tightened, the
gaskets seal the structure and, in conjunction with the port
holes, allow fluids to flow in alternate channels and almost always
flow counter-currently. The thin fluid interspace coupled with
the corrugated plate design induces turbulence that produces
extremely high heat transfer coefficients.
Plates are manufactured in standard sizes in virtually any material
that can be cold worked. The size, number and arrangement of the
plates is contingent upon the duty to be performed. Accordingly,
the units are custom designed for each application.
SUPERCHANGER frames are provided in two basic designs,
differing primarily in their support systems. One type uses an
external support column (Models HP, UP, SP, MP and FP) while
the other type uses a self-contained supporting pad (Models HJ,
UJ, SJ and MJ). The “J” Models conserve more space, but have
a limited plate capacity while the “P” Models can contain up to
700 plates in a single frame. (See Figures 1 and 2.)
