20140124171 | MICRO-PORT SHELL AND TUBE HEAT EXCHANGER - A heat exchanger adapted to transmit a first fluid through an interior, having a tubular body receptive of a second fluid, whereby heat transfer occurs between the fluids is provided, the tubular body extending longitudinally through the interior, having a non-circular cross-section, and being formed to define microchannels extending longitudinally along the tubular body through which the second fluid is transmitted. | 05-08-2014 |
20140262183 | POLYMER TUBE HEAT EXCHANGER - A heat exchanger includes a plurality of polymer tubes extending between and fluidly connecting an inlet manifold and an outlet manifold, thereby providing a flow path inside said tubes for a first fluid between the inlet manifold and the outlet manifold. The tubes are configured to have space between the exterior surfaces thereof, thereby providing a fluid flow path for a second fluid through the space between the exterior surfaces of the tubes. | 09-18-2014 |
20140311721 | SHELL AND TUBE HEAT EXCHANGER - A shell and tube heat exchanger includes a shell having an inner surface that defines a heat exchange zone, a refrigerant pool zone is arranged in the heat exchange zone, and a plurality of tube bundles are arranged in the heat exchange zone above the refrigerant pool zone. The tube bundles include first and second wall members that define a tube channel, and a plurality of tubes arranged in the tube channel. Each of the first and second wall members have a first end that extends to a second end that is spaced from the refrigerant pool zone. The plurality of tube bundles is spaced one from another so as to define one or more vapor passages. A refrigerant distributor is positioned above the tube channel. The refrigerant distributor is configured and disposed to deliver a refrigerant onto the plurality or tubes toward the refrigerant pool zone. | 10-23-2014 |
