Heat-transfer intensification — more duty from a smaller unit

A patent-pending heat exchanger that takes on the boundary-layer limit of conventional heat-transfer equipment to move more heat in less space. The gains come from an innovative geometry — and the unit uses standard fixed connections.

• A markedly higher heat-transfer coefficient than comparable conventional equipment.
• The same thermal duty in a smaller unit — and higher throughput from a given footprint.
• Faster transfer, with the potential for closer approach temperatures in process duty.
• A geometry-driven advantage, built into the design.

Where it fits: process heating and cooling duties across chemical, petrochemical, and food processing — and as the isolation stage in the integrated systems described under Systems & Combinations, where it moves heat between circuits that must never mix.
