Floating Head Heat Exchanger
Floating Head Heat Exchanger covers shell-and-tube designs allowing tube-bundle thermal expansion. Heat passes between fluid streams through a separating surface; channel geometry and materials shape heat transfer and pressure loss.

Product & engineering
Understand the product.
The distinguishing feature is shell-and-tube designs allowing tube-bundle thermal expansion. Specify both streams' inlet conditions, flow and allowable pressure loss before comparing surface area. Fouling, viscosity and phase change alter heat transfer and hydraulic resistance. Check the temperature approach and cleaning route; added area cannot compensate for a blocked channel or an incompatible separating wall.
What turns activity into demand
Required thermal duty becomes a purchase after pressure loss, fouling, materials and cleaning access are resolved.
The commercial boundary
Separate exchanger core, complete skid and cooling system; area, capacity and unit count are distinct reporting measures.
Why can a correctly sized heat exchanger miss its installed duty?
