Teralba Industries' range of Tube in Tube Heat Exchangers, also referred to as Monotube™, are ideally suited for aggressive applications, including products of high or changing viscosities, fluids or even slurries which contain large particulates, ultra high temperature processes, corrosive fluids, high pressured and hazardous fluids such as steam or refrigerants.
The primary fluid or product to be heated or cooled passes through the inner tube while the service fluid for heating or cooling is directed into the outer jacket. Dimpleflo can be manufactured in many different alloys, including Duplex stainless steels, titanium, hastalloy and zirconium, to suit the application.
Dimpleflo® Profile - Dimples that generate energy!
The Teralba Dimpleflo® Monotube system is a simple yet extremely versatile and effective tube heat exchanger. The dimple profiles of various configurations increase turbulence to enhance heat transfer coefficients and provide effective in-place cleaning. This increased turbulence results in a reduction of the total surface area required for a specific duty. A clear drainage passage in both the product and service channels provide the ultimate in hygiene for food, pharmaceutical and chemical applications, achieved by the unique arrangements of the dimple profiles. The Dimple effect also reduces fouling on the tube wall surfaces which allows longer run times between cleaning cycles. Dimpleflo Monotube has a clear flowpath which enables the heating or cooling of any pumpable product and allows the entire inner tube to be pig cleaned to reclaim valuable product at the end of a process run.
