Applications of Plate Heat Exchanger in HVAC/R
In the context of chillers and HVAC systems, Plate Heat Exchangers are used as: Evaporators: Where the cold refrigerant boils and absorbs heat from the chilled water
- Condensers: Where the hot refrigerant gas rejects heat to the cooling tower water.
- Economizers/Desuperheaters: In complex systems to improve efficiency.
- Heat Recovery Units: To transfer heat from a building’s exhaust air to the incoming fresh air.
