The two fluid medium in the system follows a counter flow path with; one fluid getting in from top while leaving at bottom and another entering at bottom and leaving at top. The rate of flow is controlled in the system to avoid negative effects of turbulence flow such as erosion. The type and length of plate is selected as per the requirements as; the rate of heat exchange and its efficiency depends upon the size and thickness of the metal plate. With a series of plates stuffed together with a very fine clearance; a thin layer of fluid forms on the either side of the metal plate. This provides with a large surface area for heat exchange. A plate can have different corrugated structure on the plates based on the flow rate efficiency required and temperature difference between the fluids. With proper operation one can achieve proper heat transfer with plate heat exchanger with temperature difference as low as one degree.
