Heat exchangers for steam cycles: economizers and condensers

In the thermodynamics of a steam cycle, a heat exchanger is a key element that ensures efficient transfer and redistribution of thermal energy between working media. Among the varieties used in power plants, the economizer and the condenser occupy a special place. The former, in…

Heat exchanger leaks: detection, elimination

During long-term operation of a plate heat exchanger, problems arise with its efficiency due to internal and external leakage. This is a typical problem for this type of equipment, where two media are in contact with each other through the plates. Leaks are usually associated…
