ABSTRACT:
A high pressure corrugated plate-type heat exchanger includes a plate pack consisting of stacked corrugated plates having seals between adjacent plates contained in a high pressure enclosure. The seals act as the primary arrangement for containing the high pressure fluids supplied to the spaces between the plates and the high pressure enclosure provides resistance to high pressures applied to the seals from the fluids in the spaces between the plates or in port holes extending through the plates. The high pressure seals comprise either a captive O-ring type seal or a welded joint between the plates, or combinations of both types of seal. In one embodiment, a compression block is inserted between the plate pack and the end of the high pressure enclosure to transfer pressure from the end of the enclosure to the plates of the plate pack and thereby compress resilient seals disposed between the plates to a desired degree. The plate packs may have rectangular plates, circular plates, oval plates or rectangular plates with curved edges.
