Gas-to-Water Heat Pipe Heat Exchanger
A practical solution for boiler feedwater and process heating
Econotherm’s Gas-to-Water Heat Pipe Heat Exchanger turns waste heat from exhaust gas into useful hot water (or low-pressure steam) that can feed process requirements, heating circuits or feedwater pre-heating
Key benefits and features
Dual-stream efficient transfer
Hot exhaust gas transfers its thermal energy into the water side, raising temperatures without direct contact.
Heat pipe-assisted design
Enhances heat transfer efficiency and uniformity across the system.
Flexible integration
Can supply hot water directly to process systems or integrate into existing boiler/feedwater loops.
Resistant to thermal cycling
Designed to accommodate fluctuations in exhaust and water conditions.
Accessible for inspection and maintenance
Modular construction supports cleaning or replacement of key elements.
Applications
-
Pre-heating boiler feedwater
-
Domestic or utility hot water generation in industrial sites
-
Process heating demands (e.g., wash water, heating loops)
-
Waste heat recovery in cogeneration or combined heat & power (CHP) systems
Gas-to-Water, throughflow design
Gas-to-Water, counterflow design
Performance considerations
-
Exhaust gas temperature, flow rate, dew point and corrosion potential
-
Water-side pressure, flow, allowable temperature rise
-
Integration with control loops to manage variable loads
