Heat Exchangers Introuction The overall heat transfer coefficient of borosilicate glass equipment compare favourably with many alternative process plant construction materials. This is because the smooth surfaces of the glass improve the film coefficient an reuce the tenency for fouling. Two basic types of glass heat exchanger are escribe in this chapter, Coil type an Shell an Tube type. Shell an tube type heat exchangers are available with glass or Mil (MS) Shells in combination with glass tube as stanar. The shell, en bonnets can be supplie in other material of construction eg, CS, SS, PTFE line, FRP, glass line etc, epening on the process conition. The tube can also be supplie in Silicon Carbie. Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger consists of a cylinrical shell which uses a glass tube bunle. Tubes are fixe in the tube sheet. Each tube is iniviually seale by PTFE 'O' ring in the tube sheet at both ens. Following are the avantage of using Shell & Tube heat exchangers : arger Heat Transfer Area in single unit ow pressure rop Coil Type Heat Exchanger Heat Exchangers are use for conensation of vapours or cooling of gas or liquis. Heat Exchangers are mae by fusing number of parallel coils in a glass shell. Coils are mae in ifferent iameters using tube of ifferent bores. Coil Heat Exchangers are normally installe in vertical position were the space is a constraint, this Heat Exchangers can be installe in horizontal position also. Precautions : When connecting coiltype conensers to the coolant supply flexible hose or PTFE bellow shoul be use which ensures that stresses are not transmitte to the glass. Coolant control valves shoul always be turne on an off slowly particularly when air is present in the line. Coolant shoul be allowe to rain freely to a point as close as practicable to the heat exchanger. Care shoul be taken in arranging the coolant supply in orer that wate haer is avoie. A uniform continuous supply of coolant shoul be ensure. Brine or other coolants in close circuit can be use as coolant provie that suitable preceutions against water haer are taken. Heat Exchangers can be mounte in series to provie larger surface areas. The maximum pressure in the coil.7. The maximum ifferential pressure across the coils.7 bar. Easy Tube Replacement. Vent Tube can be Plugge in case of Breakage. coil type heat exchangers are available as conensers, boilers or iersion type units with heat transfer areas up to 8m. There are no internal sealing problems as the coil is wele to the shell making a one piece unit. Outlet Coolant Globe Pressure Guage Ball Flexible Both types of heat exchangers are available in a wie range of nominal bores an are totally compatible with the other glass process plant an pipeline components escribe in the other chapters of this catalogue. To return heaer Inlet Coolant Flexible heat exchangers have stanar flat buttress en connection (with the exception of service connections on some smaller units). Further etails of these are provie in chapter 1 Technical Information. Typical Heat Exchanger Arrangement refers to the nominal bore. Unless otherwise state, all imensions are given in.

The coolers are connecte irectly to the prouct outlet of the column by means of 1. The prouct then flows from the top to the bottom of the unit through the coil battery across which the cooling water flows counter currently from bottom to top in Shell.

Heat Exchangers Boilers Boilers are use for vapourization of liquis by passing the steam in the coils. Boilers mae by fusing number of parallel coils in a glass shell. Flexible hoses must be use on the coil inlet an outlet. To avoi the possibility of steam haer, the steam main shoul be aequately trappe. To clear the line of the very heavy conensate flow prouce on startup bypass valves must be installe aroun the trap on the coil outlet. Coil type boilers shoul not be fitte at the bottom of flasks or columns. They are esigne to be mounte on an external circulatory loop, this ensures a rapi uni irectional flow across the heating surfaces which im proves the heat transfer performance. The steam pressure shoul always be aequate enough to ensure effective an smooth conensate removal. This pressure will vary accoring to conitions of use an size of heat exchangerfor example, with the B an B, a minimum pressure of will probably be require. On startup, the steam shoul be amitte positively an progressively to the coil battery to remove the conensate as it is forme an with the bypass valve left open until a uniform flow of conensate is being vente. Depening upon the overall operating conitions, the use of boilers uner high vacuum is not always recoene.

Iersion Heat Exchangers Iersion heat exchangers are use to control exothermic reactions in glass vessels. In most applications, cooling water is use in the coils, but they can also be use with steam. In the latter case the coils must always be completely ierse in the liqui. The M has a central hole through the coil battery so that an extene type stirrer shaft can be fitte. This extens to the bottom of the heat exchanger an provies a through mixing action These heat exchangers are not recoene for use with proucts which have tenency to crystallise.
