Titanium plate heat exchanger is a heat exchange device composed of multiple titanium metal plates, which realizes heat exchange between cold and hot fluids through the flow channels between plates. Titanium material exhibits excellent corrosion resistance and high thermal conductivity, making it particularly suitable for handling corrosive media or high-temperature environments. The titanium plate heat exchanger is an efficient and energy-saving heat exchange device, widely used in the chemical, pharmaceutical, food processing, and other industries.
In the titanium plate heat exchanger, the cold fluid and the hot fluid enter different flow channels of the heat exchanger respectively, and the titanium plate completely isolates the two fluids to avoid mixing. The heat of the hot fluid is transferred to the cold fluid through the titanium plate, and the high thermal conductivity of titanium ensures efficient heat exchange. The surface of the titanium plate is usually designed to be corrugated to increase the turbulence of the fluid and improve the heat exchange efficiency. The fluid circulates in the flow channel between the plates and flows out from the outlet after completing the heat exchange. The thickness of the titanium plate is usually 0.4-0.6mm, which not only ensures efficient heat exchange but also reduces material costs. The corrugated design can also reduce scaling and improve the stability of equipment operation.

Property | Titanium Plates | Stainless Steel Plates (304/316L) |
---|---|---|
Corrosion Resistance | Excellent, resistant to strong acids (e.g., sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid), alkalis, and seawater. Ideal for harsh environments. | Good, with 316L offering moderate resistance to corrosion, but less effective against chlorides and strong acids. |
Thermal Conductivity | 15-20 W/(m·K), enabling high heat transfer efficiency. | 14-17 W/(m·K), slightly lower than titanium but comparable. |
Weight | Low density (4.51 g/cm³), lightweight, ideal for mobile or space-constrained applications. | Higher density (~8 g/cm³), heavier, less suitable for weight-sensitive applications. |
Service Life | Up to 10-15 years in corrosive environments due to superior durability. | 5-10 years in general conditions, shorter in corrosive settings. |
Cost | Higher initial cost but lower maintenance and longer lifespan, offering better long-term value. | Lower initial cost but higher maintenance and replacement frequency. |
Applications | Chemical processing, marine engineering, seawater desalination, pharmaceuticals. | Food processing, HVAC, general industrial cooling. |
