2026-02-26

In November 2023, Fuan Optoelectronics of Dongguan, Guangdong, contacted our company. During the production of organic optoelectronic materials, they encountered excessively high temperatures in their heat-transfer oil, necessitating cooling. Following technical discussions and design coordination, we developed a spiral plate heat exchanger as the cooling unit for Fuan Optoelectronics.

Design operating conditions:

Heat source: heat-transfer oil

Cold source: 7°C cooling water

 

Heat Exchanger Design Principles:

The heat-transfer oil on the hot side of the heat exchanger enters the spiral‑plate heat exchanger, while the cold side is connected to the cooling water from an air‑cooled chiller. The cooling water and the heat exchanger work together to cool and lower the temperature of the heat-transfer oil.

The spiral plate heat exchanger is made of 304 stainless steel, with a design pressure of 0.4 MPa and a design temperature of 200°C.
