Plate Heat Exchanger

Plate Heat Exchanger. The apparatus is used for studying heat transfer through a plate heat exchanger under parallel or counter flow conditions.

The unit consists of a plate heat exchanger and a service module. The module comprises a hot water tank with a transfer pump and instruments for monitoring and control. Parallel or counter flow is by switching cold water hoses with quick coupling. The unit requires outside water supply.

Instruction manual is also included.

TYPICAL EXPERIMENTS
