Benefits of Direct Steam Injection Over Heat Exchangers
Pick Heaters, our partners for direct steam injection equipment, has highlighted some of the challenges we come across when working with heat exchangers and how direct steam injection could be a better solution for those particular applications.
Check out the two-part article on the Pick Heaters website in the links below.
Facing the Limits of Indirect Heat Exchange (Part 1)
The challenges of heating fluids and providing a steady hot water supply are important to a wide range of industry types, and there are many solutions that engineers employ to meet those challenges. Not all solutions are equal, however; following a selection path designed to save up-front costs may not always be the best strategy. There are numerous factors to consider, including ones that may be less obvious.
Finding the Solution of Direct Steam Injection (Part 2)
The limits to indirect heat exchange examined in Part 1 become more significant as greater temperature or pressure is required for heat and hot water applications. In many cases, the solution for design engineers is to opt instead for direct steam injection (DSI).
