AI Technical Summary
After the existing heat exchanger is shut down, due to the decrease in temperature, the low-temperature medium is prone to crystallization and blocking the heat exchange channel, affecting subsequent start-up.
A heat exchanger including a shell and a core is designed, and a heating channel is provided in the shell. When the equipment is shut down, steam or hot water is passed through the heating medium inlet to heat the heat exchanger to maintain a certain temperature and prevent the medium from crystallizing.
It effectively prevents the medium from crystallizing after the temperature drops, avoids blockage of the heat exchange channel, and ensures the normal operation of the heat exchanger when it is turned on again.
