Kenics heat exchangers

Kenics heat exchangers are equipped with streamlined Kenics static mixer elements that provide heat-transfer rates three to seven times higher than those of conventional empty tubes, even with highly viscous, difficult-to-process materials. A continuous string of static mixer elements is located within each heat exchanger tube. Fluid flow is directed radially toward the pipe walls and back to the element, regardless of velocity. In addition, momentum reversal and flow division also contribute to mixing efficiency. Used in a wide range of process applications, the heat exchangers require less space and use less energy than other designs. The exchangers feature all-metal and alloy construction, are designed to handle pressures to 10,000 psi, and comply with American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and Tubular Exchanger Manufacturers Association (TEMA) codes.
