We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Exchanger",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Water heating system handles large volumes from
Spirax Sarco, which we summarised at the time by saying "A Spirax Sarco EasiHeat Engineered System has eliminated the disruptions that were caused by an unreliable hot water supply".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Engine simulator cuts development times from
Ricardo: "Wave 8.0 has an improved interface and upgraded 3D functions, helping users meet increasingly demanding fuel economy and emissions standards".
In January 2008, we covered the news from Spirax Sarco
concerning its Spirax Sarco system
- take a look at Steam system cuts GBP10,000 from energy bill
which says: "The heart of the Spirax Sarco system is a plate heat exchanger that heats the boiler feed water using the flash steam that is returning with the condensate".
Take a look also at the news release from CD-adapco, Fluid dynamics software simulates small particles,
as well as Software boosts physics simulation from Comsol,
and Catalysis provides clean, dry air from Beko Technologies.
