Spiral Heat Exchangers
Alfa Laval Liquid-to-Liquid & Liquid-to-Air Spiral Heat Exchangers
CH Bull offers Alfa Laval spiral heat exchangers for liquid-to-liquid and liquid-to-air heat transfer applications. Their true countercurrent design delivers high-performance heat transfer for demanding process duties while providing a compact, efficient solution across a wide range of applications.
Spiral Heat Exchanger Details
Spiral heat exchangers use two parallel-wound rectangular channels arranged in a continuous spiral. This design creates true countercurrent flow, continuously moving the hottest and coldest media past each other in opposite directions for efficient heat exchange.
True Countercurrent Flow
The continuous spiral design creates a high rate of heat exchange between channel surfaces for efficient heating and cooling.
This true countercurrent flow makes spiral heat exchangers well suited for demanding process applications.
High-Turbulence Performance
The rectangular flow path increases turbulence, allowing liquids, fluids and high-solid-content slurries to be heated or cooled efficiently.
High turbulence also makes the units self-cleaning, helping minimize maintenance and support quick service turnaround.
Compact & Versatile
Alfa Laval spiral heat exchangers are available in a range of sizes and capacities for liquid-to-liquid and liquid-to-air applications.
These compact units can be used for extreme process duties as well as a broad range of general heat transfer applications.
Common Spiral Heat Exchanger Applications
