How to manufacture the shell and tube heat exchanger II



4. Machining: after checking whether the dimension (outer diameter, thickness) and material of the tube sheet meet the requirements of the drawing, the surface roughness of the machined tube sheet shall not be greater than 25 μ m, and the tube sheet plane shall be visible.





5. Tube plate hole processing: after the tube plate hole of the heat exchanger is finished by the CNC machining center, ensure that the tube plate hole is vertical to the sealing surface of the tube plate, and the hole surface is not allowed to have longitudinal traces of continuity, so as to ensure the effective sealing after the mechanical expansion of the heat exchange tube and tube plate hole.








5. Fabrication and assembly of baffle plate: the baffle plate assembly is divided into two types, I-type and spiral type. After assembly, the baffle plate assembly is sleeved into the shell to ensure that the upper and lower baffle plates fit the shell wall, and the clearance is not more than 3mm, to prevent the influence of water flooding and ensure the heat exchange performance.









6. Assembly and welding of end cover: weld both inside and outside to ensure the welding strength of pipe orifice. Reduce the weld leakage rate.



7. Welding of tube plate and shell: assemble according to the process requirements to ensure the concentricity and perpendicularity of tube plate, cylinder and heat exchange tube. All welds and pipe orifices shall be welded by carbon dioxide gas shielded welding, and welding shall be conducted in strict accordance with the requirements of the product welding process card.



8. Tube expansion: adopt German Technodata numerical control tube expansion machine, mechanical rolling expansion strength expansion, to ensure the sealing performance after tube expansion position expansion of heat exchanger.



9. Air tightness test: assemble all pipe orifices, fill nitrogen or dry compressed air to conduct air tightness test on all pipe orifices and welds in the shell side, and keep the pressure for 24h without pressure drop.

10. Assembly: assemble the end cover after leak detection of the expanded pipe position, multi system evaporator and conduct the cross-talk test of the adjacent system, and maintain the pressure for 12h to ensure no pressure drop loss.


11. Support base installation: the bent compressor, electric box, filter and other brackets shall be assembled and welded according to the size required by the drawing.

12. Painting: after the surface of heat exchanger is polished and plastered, spray primer and finish paint.

13. Packaging and delivery: after the products are painted, assembled and packed in wooden cases, they are ready to be delivered.

Avoid Downtime, Cut Costs: Smart Maintenance for Smarter Chillers

  Screw water-cooled chillers   typically operate around 3,000 hours per year, depending on China's climate and geographical conditions. Regular and scientific maintenance is crucial to ensure long-term, reliable operation, extend the lifespan, and reduce operating costs. Maintenance and Upkeep Preventive maintenance during operation and inspection involves creating annual and monthly maintenance plans based on actual operating conditions. Shutdown Procedures In winter, clean and dry the unit. Open the drain valve to empty the  shell-and-tube heat exchanger  to avoid freezing. The shutdown sequence is: chiller off - cooling tower fan off - cooling water pump off - chilled water pump off. Special attention to anti-freezing: 1. Drain the evaporator and condenser if the unit is outdoors below 0°C during standby. 2. Interlock the water flow switch with the unit to prevent freezing when the chilled water flow switch malfunctions. 3. Ensure water in the evaporator is flowi...

What are the differences between air-cooled chillers and water-cooled chillers | Oumalchiller.com

  We all know that according to different heat dissipation methods, chillers can be divided into air-cooled chillers and water-cooled chillers. What is the difference between air-cooled chillers and water-cooled chillers? ​ 1. The  air-cooled chiller  uses copper tubes and aluminum fins to dissipate heat from the condenser. A fan is required to blow the outdoor air through the heat exchange fins and take away the heat of the condenser, so the air-cooled chiller does not need to be connected to the cooling tower. But compared with water-cooled chillers, under the same power, air-cooled chillers have larger equipment size and higher noise. The condenser of water-cooled chillers exchanges heat with the cooling water from the cooling tower through the heat exchanger. The excess waste heat will be transported to the cooling tower through the cooling water loop and released into the atmosphere, or enter the water-water heat exchanger or soil heat exchange coil for storage. Ther...

What is difference between centrifugal chiller and screw chillers?

 Water Chillers are generally divided into the following categories: screw chillers, centrifugal chillers, water ring heat pump units, plate and tube evaporative condensing screw chillers, thermal storage air conditioners, etc. Screw chiller and centrifugal chiller are equipment that we often encounter. Below,  Oumal Refrigeration  will take you to understand the difference between centrifugal chiller and screw chiller? What is a  screw chiller ? The compressor adopts a screw type, hence the name screw chiller. The refrigerant coming out of the evaporator of the unit is a gas; after adiabatic compression by the compressor, it becomes a high-temperature and high-pressure state. The compressed gas refrigerant is isobarically cooled and condensed in the condenser. After condensation, it changes into liquid refrigerant, and then expands to low pressure through the throttle valve and becomes a gas-liquid mixture. The liquid refrigerant under low temperature and low pressu...
