HEAT EXCHANGER WITH A CLOSING BAR OPTIMIZED FOR PROTECTION AGAINST ICING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240053107 titled 'HEAT EXCHANGER WITH A CLOSING BAR OPTIMIZED FOR PROTECTION AGAINST ICING

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a heat exchanger with plates designed for heat exchange between hot and cold fluids. It includes a core band for sealing tightness, closing bars that define flow channels, and an inlet for supplying hot air.

  • Core band maintains sealing tightness
  • Closing bars and plates define flow channels
  • Core band at cold pass inlet and hot pass inlet has inlet for hot air
  • Closing bar at cold pass inlet has inlet and flow circuit for hot air in U shape
  • Hot air outlet expels hot air in hot pass
  • Intermediate section forms base of U shape

Original Abstract Submitted

heat exchanger with plates, which is configured for a heat exchange between a hot fluid and a cold fluid, comprising at least one core band () arranged in order to maintain the sealing tightness, a plurality of closing bars () defining, with the closing plates, flow channels, characterized in that the core band () arranged at a cold pass inlet and at a hot pass inlet comprises an inlet () for supplying hot air, and in that at least one closing bar () arranged in the lengthwise direction of the inlet of the cold pass comprises an inlet for said hot air and a flow circuit for said hot air in a u shape and comprising two sections, each extending over the whole length of the closing bar, a hot air outlet for expelling the hot air in the hot pass, and an intermediate section forming the base of the u.
