What “good” looks like: setting a clean-condition baseline and why it matters
Learn how a clean-condition baseline helps measure heat exchanger performance, detect fouling, track degradation, and set meaningful maintenance thresholds.
-
Pressure drop as a diagnostic signal, not just a nuisance
Pressure drop is usually treated as a cost to minimise. Normalised for flow, it becomes a second health signal that…
-
Effectiveness-NTU in plain English: what UA actually tells you about a heat exchanger’s health
Outlet temperature shows how a heat exchanger behaves today, not how healthy it is. UA gives a load-independent signal from…
-
Fouling 101: the main mechanisms — and why each behaves differently
Fouling isn’t one problem. What builds up on a heat exchanger surface depends on what flows through it, how hot…
-
The hidden cost of fouling: how a fraction of a millimeter of deposit quietly eats energy, throughput, and margin
A heat exchanger rarely fails dramatically. It declines slowly and expensively as a thin film of deposit builds on its…
