Many machines, and almost all industrial processes require some form of heat transfer. Designing machinery to transfer heat in an efficient and safe manner is not a 'nice to have,' it is a necessity. Despite the numerous processes that require heat transfer, only two heat exchangers are commonly used today, the shell and tube type, and the plate type. This course covers the plate heat exchanger in detail.
This course gives you all the information you need to know about the plate heat exchanger and can also be used later as a refresher course. Irrespective of your engineering background this course will enrich your engineering career.
Interactive 3D models are used extensively to show you a plate heat exchanger's components and how it works. The course is packed with 2D images, 2D animations, and 3D animations
Specific Knowledge or Skill Obtained
This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:
- The advantages of multi pass heat exchangers relative to single pass
- When to use corrugated plates vs flat plates
- Why some plate heat exchangers are brazed or welded, rather than sealed using gaskets
- The most efficient flow type for a plate heat exchanger
- How to vary the cooling capacity of a plate heat exchanger
- Maintenance tasks associated with a plate heat exchanger
- Considerations when assembling and disassembling a plate heat exchanger
Certificate of Completion
You will be able to immediately print a certificate of completion after passing a multiple-choice quiz consisting of 15 questions. PDH credits are not awarded until the course is completed and quiz is passed.
