Here is our part of our series about Pillow Plates Heat exchangers. The current article will focus on examining the Pillow Plate Falling Film Evaporators (PPFFEs), their operating principle and applications. To keep the readers up to date, a brief review will be made regarding some essential concepts of the pillow plate heat exchangers.
Last week, we published our very brief introduction about this innovative heat exchanger, explaining the origin of the name pillow, citing some examples of applications, and explaining the fabrication process of the plates.
Pillow-Plates Heat Exchangers (PPHE) are classified as innovative heat exchangers and are used today in a large range of applications such as ice machines, heat pumps, column reboilers, latent heat storage systems, waste heat recovery, jacketed tanks, etc.
