The purpose of heat exchangers is to transfer heat from one fluid (either gas or liquid) to another. Compact heat exchangers (CHEs) have a significantly greater surface area per unit volume and more conventional types of heat exchanger. For the purposes of the ECA Scheme, a CHE is defined as a heat exchanger with a surface to volume ratio of > 200 m2/m3.
Compact heat exchangers are characterized by a high surface area per unit volume, which can result in a higher efficiency than conventional heat exchangers, in a significantly smaller volume (typically Compact heat exchangers can be achieve efficiencies of over 95% cf. 80% for non-compact heat exchangers). Compact heat exchangers transfer more energy cost-effective manner than other heat exchangers & save more energy when compared standard technology.
Three types of compact heat exchanger are covered by the ECA Scheme. These are:
1. Plate heat exchangers.
2. Plate-fin heat exchangers.
3. Compact heat exchangers with precision formed surfaces.
Investments in CHEs can only qualify for Enhanced Capital Allowances if the specific product is named on the Energy Technology Product List. To be eligible for inclusion on the Energy Technology Product List and products must meet the eligibility criteria as set out below.
