Optimized Flow Velocity for Performance

1. Reasonable Flow Velocity Selection
   Proper flow velocity is critical to heat transfer performance, pressure loss, and resistance to wear or corrosion. Wide channel flow rates typically range from 0.9 to 1.3 m/s, ensuring sufficient material movement to prevent deposition or clogging.
2. Ease of Installation and Maintenance
   With a modular structure and detachable cover plates, inspections and mechanical cleaning can be performed conveniently, reducing downtime and enhancing safety.

Working Principle and Flow Patterns

1. Heat Exchange Mechanism
   Each heat exchange plate features a double-sided dimpled design to enhance turbulence and heat transfer. Plates are welded in pairs to form alternating channels for hot and cold fluids, ensuring efficient counterflow heat exchange.
2. Flow Configuration
   Fluids typically enter from the bottom and exit at the top to prevent sedimentation and erosion. This design extends operational uptime and minimizes the frequency of cleaning.

Flow progresses as follows:

• Material Inlet → Distribution Header → Plate Pack
• Reverse flow through alternating channels achieves maximum thermal efficiency.
