Plate heat exchanger consists of multiple corrugated metal plates, stamped at precise intervals, sealed with gaskets, and securely compressed within a frame using bolts. The four corner holes in the plates and gaskets form distribution and collection channels for the fluid, effectively separating the hot and cold fluids. This design allows the fluids to flow independently through alternating channels on either side of each plate, facilitating efficient heat exchange across the plate surfaces.
Plate heat exchangers find extensive use in various industrial engineering applications, such as refrigeration, air conditioning systems, power plants, food processing, chemical processing plants, and automotive radiators.
