Jacketed Vessel Coil Type Heat Exchanger ThermoFlux | ThermoFlux-7108/4
Product Overview
The Jacketed Vessel Coil Type Heat Exchanger ThermoFlux-7108/4 is a thermodynamics laboratory unit for studying heat transfer between hot water flowing through a surrounding jacket and cold water in an inner vessel. This jacketed vessel coil type heat exchanger supports continuous supply and batch process operation, with a total vessel volume of 7 litres, interior vessel volume of approx. 2.9 litres, jacket volume of approx. 4 litres, and an integrated coil of approx. 3820 mm length and 9.5 mm diameter. Temperature measurement at hot and cold side inlets and outlets enables heat transfer rate, efficiency, and energy balance calculations. An electric propeller stirrer ensures uniform vessel temperature during batch experiments, and all water contact parts are constructed from PVC, stainless steel, and brass for corrosion resistance.

Construction and Design
The Jacketed Vessel Coil Type Heat Exchanger ThermoFlux-7108/4 is assembled on an anodized aluminium structural frame with HDF panels. The inner vessel, with a 150 mm diameter, 165 mm height, and 2.9 litre volume, is surrounded by the jacket through which hot water flows. The jacketed vessel assembly has an outer diameter of 218 mm, a height of 203 mm, and a jacket volume of approximately 4 litres, giving a total vessel volume of 7 litres. A coil of approximately 3820 mm length and 9.5 mm diameter is integrated within the inner vessel to provide an extended heat exchange surface. An electric stirrer fitted with a propeller-shaped stirring rod maintains uniform temperature distribution in the cold water vessel during batch heating experiments. Temperature sensors at the inlet and outlet of both the hot jacket side and the cold vessel side provide all data required for heat transfer rate, efficiency, and energy balance calculations. All components in contact with water are constructed from PVC, stainless steel, or brass to eliminate corrosion in continuous operation. This jacketed vessel coil type heat exchanger supports both continuous flow and batch process experimental configurations from a single unit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What operation modes does the Jacketed Vessel Coil Type Heat Exchanger ThermoFlux-7108/4 support?
The unit supports two operation modes: continuous supply, where hot and cold water flow continuously through the jacket and vessel respectively, and batch process, where a constant mass of cold water in the vessel is heated by hot water flowing through the jacket.
Q2: What are the key volumes of this jacketed vessel coil type heat exchanger?
The total vessel volume is 7 litres. The interior vessel volume is approximately 2.9 litres and the jacket volume is approximately 4 litres.
Q3: What is the purpose of the electric stirrer in the ThermoFlux-7108/4?
The electric stirrer, fitted with a propeller-shaped rod, ensures uniform temperature distribution within the inner vessel during batch heating experiments, preventing temperature stratification and improving measurement accuracy.
Q4: What materials are used for water contact components?
All main water contact parts are made from PVC, stainless steel, or brass to prevent corrosion during continuous operation.
Q5: How is heat transfer performance calculated using this apparatus?
Temperature sensors at the inlet and outlet of both the hot water jacket and the cold water vessel sides provide the data required to calculate heat transfer rate, thermal efficiency, and energy balance across the exchanger using standard heat exchanger analysis methods.
