Plate Exchangers

The basic plate heat exchanger consists of a series of thin, corrugated plates that are gasketed, welded together (or any combination of these) or brazed together depending on application. The plates are then compressed together in a rigid frame to create an arrangement of parallel flow channels. One fluid travels in the odd numbered channels, the other in the even.

All plate heat exchangers look similar on the outside. The difference lies inside, in the details of plate design and the sealing technologies used.
