Abstract
In this paper, we present the ongoing process of the research and development of the Printed Circuit Heat Exchanger (PCHE) on Floating Storage Regasification Unit (FSRU). We performed a structural simulation work to find the optimal design of fluid channels on heat transfer plates, fabricated the heat transfer plates, and calculated the capacity of the PCHE using our analytical tool. In the simulation work, the plates having channels of 1 mm semicircular cross section were designed by varying the wall thickness between channels. At a temperature, 1373 K, compressing pressures were varied as 30, 85.7, and 500 bars. Based on the simulation results, we fabricated and bonded heat transfer plates using the diffusion bonding equipment which our department developed. Then, the sizing of PCHE was done with analytical calculation for the developing PCHE on FSRU.
