Heat Exchangers

How do heat exchangers work

Heat exchangers are key in transfer thermal energy between two liquids, without the need of them coming in contact. With a usual heat exchanger, two fluid streams flow in different ways, with the first being hot and the other fluid being cold. As the hot liquid moves through the heat exchanger, it lets out its thermal energy to the walls of the heat exchanger, then conducting the heat to the cold fluid. The cold fluid will then absorb this heat, causing its temperature to increase, while the hot fluid's temperature drops.

This ongoing exchange of thermal energy will then result in the desired heat transfer between the two fluids.

Where can heat exchangers be used

Heat exchangers play a crucial role in a range of processes which includes: HVAC systems, refrigeration, power plants, and industrial processes, enabling energy-efficient heat management and maintaining optimal temperatures in different systems.
