With over 20 years of experience in a wide range of applications HiTRAN® Thermal Systems have developed a comprehensive range of in-tube turbulators designed to cut plant processing costs by increasing the performance of your heat exchangers.
   

  Flow disruption due to hiTRAN Turbulator
Pic 1. Flow disruption caused by hiTRAN wire matrix Turbulator

The technology consists of a unique patented wire matrix turbulator, known as a HiTRAN® Matrix Element, which is designed to promote fluid mixing and improve tube-side heat and mass transfer. (A) laminar flow conditions
(B) Turbulence caused by the use of hiTRAN matrix tube Inserts.

HiTRAN® Thermal Systems can be engineered to suit any tubular heat exchanger application (air cooled heat exchangers, shell and tube heat exchangers, condensers, reboilers and double pipe heat exchangers.) HiTRAN® wire matrix turbulators are easily installed and are fully removable. Our systems have been installed in over 5000 heat exchangers around the world to achieve these benefits:

  • Revamping & Debottlenecking Existing Exchangers

  • Designing Smaller, More Cost Effective New Heat Exchangers

  • Improving Heat Exchanger Operability

HiTRAN® wire matrix tube inserts have been validated by many of the world’s major oil, petrochemical and chemical process industries. A combination of data obtained from our own in-house testing and development, coupled to that obtained from proven field performance enables Cal Gavin to custom design the technology to suit your specific application. The company is committed to an ongoing research and development program designed to continually improve product performance.
