The Heat Exchange Institute (HEI) has announced the release of the first edition of Standards for Gasketed Plate Heat Exchangers. HEI said the first edition represents another step in its continuing program to provide standards that reflect the latest technological advancements in the field of heat exchange equipment.

Global heat exchanger market revenues are forecast to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9 percent from 2014 to 2019, according to a new report by TechSci Research. The market is expected to be driven by growing industrialization across the globe and increasing demand from developing economies.

The Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute’s certification program now allows design engineers to verify the software outputs of certified liquid-to-liquid heat exchanger performance ratings.

Although NASA’s Icing Research Tunnel (IRT) remains the largest and busiest testing facility of its type, it remained largely unchanged over the years.
