TC 01.2 – Plate Heat Exchanger

In the plate heat exchanger, hot and cold fluids flow through alternating channels formed between the plates, enabling efficient heat transfer between them.

Description
One of the main advantages of this type of heat exchanger is its compact size, making it particularly suitable for installations with limited space.
 
Additionally, the plates feature a geometry that induces fluid turbulence, significantly enhancing the system’s thermal performance.
