Overview of Titanium Heat Exchanger:

It is a heat exchange device made of high-quality titanium tubes that transfers a portion of the heat from a hot fluid to a cold fluid. Titanium heat exchangers, with numerous advantages of industrial pure titanium, are commonly used equipment in chemical, petroleum, power, food, and many other industrial sectors, and play an important role in production.

Material properties

In practical applications, the heat transfer efficiency of a heat exchanger is closely related to the material and process characteristics of the heat exchanger. During the concentration process of materials, solutes or impurities often deposit and crystallize on the heated surface, forming a scale layer that affects heat transfer; Some solutes are thermosensitive and are prone to spoilage if left at high temperatures for too long; Some materials have high corrosiveness or viscosity, etc.

physical property

The titanium heat exchanger is made of high-quality titanium tubes. In terms of physical properties, titanium tubes have various advantages such as light weight and superior mechanical properties. Titanium has high strength, with pure titanium having a tensile strength of up to 180kg/mm2. Some steels have higher strength than titanium alloys, but the specific strength (the ratio of tensile strength to density) of titanium alloys exceeds that of high-quality steels. In addition, titanium alloys have good heat resistance, low-temperature toughness, and fracture toughness.

chemical property

In terms of chemical properties, titanium exhibits good stability and has good corrosion resistance in various industrial solutions. Industrial pure titanium is an excellent material for refrigeration equipment accessories.

Industrial pure titanium can be widely used in media such as organic compounds, alkaline solutions, and salt solutions, and is not easily reacted with them, with excellent corrosion resistance; Pure titanium has good corrosion resistance to low concentrations of inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, and nitric acid at room temperature; However, with the increase of medium concentration and working temperature, industrial pure titanium is prone to chemical reactions with the above-mentioned inorganic acids, which reduces the corrosion resistance of titanium. Therefore, attention should be paid to the concentration of the medium and working temperature during the heat exchange process.

Industrial pure titanium has good corrosion resistance to organic acids such as formic acid, oxalic acid, and lactic acid at room temperature.

Characteristics of titanium heat exchanger:

Titanium heat exchangers can fully utilize their non-magnetic characteristics due to the low loss of metal ions, and are used as heat exchangers for pharmaceutical and food applications. Due to the strong corrosion resistance of titanium, heat exchangers have a long service life and low maintenance costs during use. In addition, due to its advantages such as small size and high heat transfer capacity, the investment and operating costs of related equipment (such as pumps) can also be correspondingly reduced.

Application scope:

Titanium heat exchangers are widely used in various industries and fields such as seafood farming, seawater heat exchange, saltwater heat exchange, chemical, food, pharmaceutical, metallurgical, refrigeration, light industry, electroplating industry, aluminum oxidation tank, salt production, papermaking, ultrasonic, electronic communication, centralized heating, etc., thanks to the various excellent properties of industrial pure titanium.
