Hairpin Heat Exchangers
Features
- Well suited in applications where high thermal performance and a compact foot print is required
- Use when application calls for process fluids on both the shell and tube sides with temperature cross
- Provides true counter current flow which permits temperature crossing and a close temperature approach
- Able to handle wide temperature differentials without the use of an expansion joint
- Ease of maintenance – Long radius U-Bend
- Available in Removable Bundle and Non- Removable Bundle designs
Advantages
- Compact Footprint
- Lower Weight
- Ease of Maintenance – Long radius U-Bends
- Pure Counter Current Flow for High Heat Recovery
- Eliminates Differential Thermal Expansion Concerns
Applications
- Space restricted areas
- Viscous fluids or where suspended solids in a flow stream
- Situations where flow induced vibration may be a problem
- High flow rate ratios between shell side and tube side fluids
