Uniflux ® Heater Advantages

• UNIFORM HEAT FLUX:

  High circulation of exhaust gases around tubes results in a convective heat transfer to the process tubes. This means lower tube wall temperatures can be used for the same average heat transfer rate as with conventional heaters.

• NO FLAME IMPINGEMENT:

  Complete combustion within the Fuel Reactor means no flames within the tube area. Tube walls are safe from flame. Coking of tubes is minimized.

• HIGH THERMAL EFFICIENCY:

  Using Uniflux tube banks alone, efficiencies up to 80% are achieved. With an economizer unit, efficiencies of nearly 95% can be achieved. Due to the controlled fuel / air ratios, Uniflux efficiencies increase as the heat load decreases.

• SAFE OPERATION:

  No flashbacks are possible with the sealed Fuel Reactor. Inert gases in the Exchanger section cannot support combustion.

• LIGHTWEIGHT INSULATION:

  The wall construction of the exchanger consists of a stainless steel liner with a carbon steel outer shell and lightweight, low conductivity fiber insulation sandwiched between. This cuts weight and heat retention to less than 10% of refractory linings.

• SHOP ASSEMBLED:

  Delivered completely assembled. Only process piping and electrical connection are required.
