Abstract: Helically coiled heat exchanger for the indirect exchange of heat between a two-phase first medium and a second medium has a shell surrounding a shell space, which extends along a longitudinal axis, an inlet for the admission of the two-phase first medium into the shell space, a tube bundle arranged in the shell space and having multiple helically coiled tubes for accommodating the second medium and a separating device for separating a gaseous phase from a liquid phase. The separating device has a tray arranged above the tube bundle which serves for collecting the liquid phase. The tray has a plurality of chimneys for separating the two phases. Each chimney projects from the tray from a side of the tray facing away from the tube bundle and is covered by a roof. An opening in the tray between the roof and an upper end of the respective chimney, there is provided an inlet opening via which the gaseous phase can flow into the respective chimney.

Abstract: The invention relates to a heat exchanger for indirect heat exchange between a first and second medium having: a shell, extending along a longitudinal axis and surrounding a shell space for receiving the first medium, and a plurality of tubes coiled helically onto a core tube which extends along the longitudinal axis in the shell space forming a tube bundle. The tube bundle comprises a number of tube layers lying one on top of the other in the radial direction. The second medium is conducted within the tubes to exchange heat indirectly with the first medium. The at least one distributor arm distributes a liquid phase of the first medium to an upper side of the tube bundle. The at least one distributor arm has, opposite from the upper side, a bottom with through-openings, so that the liquid phase can be passed to the upper side of the tube bundle.

Abstract: The invention relates to a heat exchanger for indirect heat exchange between a first medium and a second medium, comprising a shell surrounding a shell space which extends along a longitudinal axis. The shell space serves for accommodating the first medium. A tube bundle is arranged in the shell space having multiple tubes for accommodating the second medium. The tubes are helically coiled in multiple tube layers onto a core tube. The tube bundle has a multiplicity of inner tube layers, surrounding the core tube, and a multiplicity of outer tube layers, surrounding the inner tube layers. The heat exchanger discharges a part of a gaseous phase out of the shell space from the region of the inner tube layers via a gas discharge device, and/or supplies a gaseous phase into the shell space in the region of the outer tube layers via a gas supply device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a heat exchanger having a core tube onto which tubes forming a tube bundle are coiled, a pre-distributor having a liquid space for receiving a liquid phase (F), a centrally arranged feed for introducing the liquid phase into the liquid space and a main distributor which has a multiplicity of distributor arms for distributing the liquid phase (F) over the tube bundle, wherein the distributor arms via at least one flow path proceeding outside the core tube are in fluidic connection with the liquid space, wherein the core tube is arranged or sealed off with regard to the liquid space in such a way that the liquid phase from the liquid space is not introduceable via the core tube into the distributor arms of the main distributor.

Abstract: The invention relates to a heat exchanger for indirect heat exchange between a first medium and a second medium, comprising: a shell, which surrounds a shell space of the heat exchanger, a core tube, which extends along a longitudinal axis and onto which a plurality of tubes for receiving the first medium are coiled. The tubes form a bundle and a number of end portions of the tubes are brought together and connected to a tubesheet fixed on the shell. An annular channel is provided for receiving the second medium (M2). An inlet nozzle is provided for introducing the second medium into the annular channel (100). A plurality of distributor arms in flow connection with the annular channel are provided for distributions.

Abstract: The invention relates to a heat exchanger (1) having a tube bundle (10) with a large number of tubes wound around a central pipe (100), a shell (20) enclosing the tube bundle (10) and defining a shell space (200) surrounding the tube bundle (10), and a liquid distributor (30) having distributor arms (300) for distributing a liquid (F) into the shell space (200) and onto the tube bundle (10), and drain pipes (340) for supplying the distributor arms with liquid (F). The distributor arms (300) are connected in a flow-guiding manner to a ring channel (400) positioned along the periphery of the shell (20). For degassing liquid (F), central pipe (100) is connected in a flow-guiding manner to the distributor arms (300).
