Atmospheric condenser is a heat exchange equipment that converts steam to liquid and cools the hydrophobic water of all types of heat exchangers under atmospheric pressure. It is mainly used in the marine industry.
Working Principle:
Atmospheric condenser condenses steam by exchanging heat between steam and cooling medium (usually air or water) to reduce the temperature of steam.
Main Applications:
The atmospheric condenser is mainly used in the marine industry, especially as a heat exchanger hydrophobic cooling equipment.
The equipment adopts shell and tube structure design, and the main technical features include three core elements:
Steam processing capacity: the rated working conditions should ensure that the steam condensation rate reaches the design parameters, and the condensate should not have secondary evaporation phenomenon.
Material Selection: the shell needs to be galvanized when using carbon steel, and the heat exchanger tubes should preferably be made of copper alloy or corrosion-resistant stainless steel.
Mechanical Strength: the shell needs to withstand the hydrostatic test of 1.5 times the design pressure, and maintain no leakage for 30 minutes [1]. Mechanical strength: the shell should withstand a hydrostatic test of 1.5 times the design pressure, and maintain no leakage for 30 minutes.
Special design includes anti-cavitation structure and multi-stage baffle device.
