Product catalog summary
Introduction: The document discusses the GHE-BEU heat exchangers used in gas pressure reduction processes, particularly in the first stage where the Joule-Thomson effect causes a significant temperature drop. This can lead to equipment damage due to ice crystal formation. To prevent this, gas must be heated before pressure reduction, ensuring the temperature remains above 5°C or as specified in contracts.
Specifications: Gascat's GHE-BEU heat exchangers are designed to handle various system requirements, including pressure, temperature, and flow variations. They use hot water or steam as the thermal carrier fluid to efficiently and safely perform thermal exchange.
Operation: The gas enters the heat exchanger, where it is deflected by a separator and flows through a tube bundle for thermal exchange. The thermal carrier fluid enters from the top and exits from the bottom, passing through diaphragms to enhance heat exchange efficiency.
Technical Characteristics: The maximum water temperature for the GHE Series is 90°C, and for vapor, it is 120°C. The exchangers feature removable U-tube bundles for easy inspection and maintenance, with axial connections for gas and provisions for a pressure safety valve.
Materials: The components include ASTM A105 and A106 for flanges, nitrile rubber for seals, and ASTM A516 GR.70 for the pressure vessel.
Technology: The BEU technology offers a cost-effective solution with high energy efficiency. The removable bundle design allows for easy maintenance and replacement, providing long-term cost benefits.
Water Pre-Heating System: The system includes a boiler, shut-off valve, pump, expansion tank, retaining valve, and the heat exchanger itself.
Dimensions and Weights: The document provides detailed dimensions and weights for various models, ensuring proper selection and installation.
Additional Information: Gascat follows a policy of continuous improvement and reserves the right to change specifications without notice. The company is ISO 9001 certified by Bureau Veritas.

Heat Exchangers - GHE-BEU-2

Na redução de pressão do gás, ocorre o fenômeno físico denominado efeito “Joule Thompson”, quando ocorre queda brusca da temperatura (aproximadamente 0,5 ºC a cada 1 bar) Esta queda de temperatura pode danificar os demais equipamentos a jusante do sistema de redução de pressão, devido a formação de cristais de gelo pela presença de vapor de água presente no gás. Particularmente no primeiro estágio de redução, o gás deve ser previamente aquecido, protegendo assim todo o sistema. É recomendável que após a redução de pressão, a temperatura do gás esteja superior a 5ºC ou em temperatura específica...
