Heat and Control has launched a new<br />
heat exchanger technology. The iHX<br />
Intelligent Heat Exchanger (iHX) is a<br />
low oil volume model set to provide<br />
an efficient, low cost, oil heating<br />
solution for food manufacturers.<br />
The heat exchanger is suitable for all<br />
manner of snack food applications,<br />
including bakery, potato chips, corn<br />
products, nut products, French<br />
fries, potato co-products and all<br />
continuous frying operations.<br />
Heat and Control chief engineer<br />
Mick Walsh shared: "Using the<br />
latest advancements in design<br />
and automation in computer code<br />
allowed us to perform the millions<br />
of calculations needed to optimise<br />
radiative heat transfer and create an<br />
optimised tube bundle design and<br />
heating technology, (stet) reduced<br />
oil volume. This innovation in design<br />
offers a 25% increase in efficiency<br />
gains over our previous, base model<br />
heat exchanger. The iHX provides<br />
improved oil quality, reduced oil<br />
volume, lower fuel costs, and lower<br />
emission levels. Moreover, the iHX<br />
performs at an optimal level as all tubes<br />
within the radiative zone use their<br />
whole surface area for heat transfer,<br />
reflecting heat from the insulation<br />
