In this case the baffle helps increase the efficiency of the stove as more heat leaves the gas before it exits. The baffles prevent the rotational flow without affecting radial or longitudinal flow. The tank is provided with baffles which prevent swirling and vortex formation. Except in very large tanks, four(4) baffles are placed.
Pillow-plate heat exchangers are a class of fully welded heat exchanger design, which exhibit a wavy, “pillow-shaped” surface formed by an inflation process. Compared to more conventional equipment, such as shell and tube and plate and frame heat exchangers , pillow plates are a quite young technology.
Depiction of how flow division and radial mixing can occur in a static mixer Flow division in a static mixer that uses baffles is a function of the number of elements in the mixer. In the housed-elements design the static mixer elements consist of a series of baffles made of metal or a variety of plastics. Similarly, the mixer housing can be ...
A boiler where the primary heating surface is tubes with hot gas flowing inside and water outside. See also: water-tube boiler. Flash steam Flue A large fire tube, either used as the main heating surface in a flued boiler, or used as enlarged firetubes in a locomotive-style boiler where these contain the superheater elements. Flued boiler ...
Baffle (heat transfer), a flow-directing or obstructing vane or panel used in some industrial process vessels (tanks) Baffle (medicine), a tunnel or wall surgically constructed within the heart or primary blood vessels to redirect blood flow; Baffles (submarine), the blind spot in a submarine's sonar created by the body of the submarine
Conceptual diagram of a plate and frame heat exchanger A single plate heat exchanger An interchangeable plate heat exchanger directly applied to the system of a swimming pool. Another type of heat exchanger is the plate heat exchanger. These exchangers are composed of many thin, slightly separated plates that have very large surface areas and ...
An alternative to this type of coalescer is a flow through pre-coalescer that is installed upstream in a separator tank. In the Compact Electrostatic Coalescer , [ 2 ] droplet coalescence is achieved by applying AC electric fields (50–60 Hz) to water-in-oil emulsions under turbulent-flow conditions.
A plate heat exchanger is a type of heat exchanger that uses metal plates to transfer heat between two fluids. This has a major advantage over a conventional heat exchanger in that the fluids are exposed to a much larger surface area because the fluids are spread out over the plates.
