Heating and/or cooling a medium is essential for a process. Veenbrink RVS designs and produces high-quality heating and cooling mantles for any process and budget.
Two key parameters that determine whether a process is running efficiently are pressure and temperature. The ‘ideal gas law’ states that pressure and temperature are directly proportional to each other. A pressure difference in or around a process tank can be created in various ways, for example with the aid of a pump or water column. ‘Jackets’ are used in the process industry to create a temperature difference. These jackets come in many types and sizes. The types used by Veenbrink RVS are generally produced in-house.
The selection of the optimum type of heating or cooling is always dependent on three parameters: capacity, maximum pressure and costs. Capacity is generally related to the maximum possible flow rate and the heated surface. In addition, each type has several specific advantages and/or disadvantages.
An example of an affordable and easy-to-install solution is a silicone heated mat. The disadvantage of these mats is that their capacity is relatively low and that cooling is not an option. A pillow plate heat exchanger is an example of a jacket that is able to withstand high pressure, but is unable to supply the highest possible capacity. A more expensive solution is a, potentially reinforced, double-wall jacket. When properly designed, such a jacket is able to withstand very high pressure, as well as provide a high capacity.
The mantle and bottom can be configured in various combinations.
