Innovative design for an improved tubular heat exchanger

Market Challenges

Waste heat recovery and optimization and heat transfer optimization pose significant challenges, particularly in terms of system performance, size and cost.

Indeed, the current installations take up space and the shaping process is expensive.

Among the improvement leads, chaotic flows are wellknown to be especially effcient for heat transfer and mixing but diffcult to manufacture at reasonnable cost and size.

Innovative solution

We developed a compact heat exchanger system designed with sine-helicoidal geometry channels generating chaotic flows.

Benefits

This innovative shape allows :

• Customized & optimized design for each use case
• Improved mixing & heat transfer compared to classical tubular systems
• Easy production by traditional method or 3D printing
• Save space

Suggested Applications

All areas with strong heat exchange/mixing/reacting efficiency expectations:

• Agri-food engineering
• Chemical and petroleom engineering
• Aeronautical
• Automotive
• Heat recovery
• etc.
