Aluminum plate-fin heat exchangers are characterized by small volume, light weight, high heat exchange efficiency, high durability and strong applicability. Under the circumstance of the same unit volume, Aluminum plate-fin heat exchangers have bigger heat exchange areas that are at least 10 times of those of shell-and-tube heat exchangers. Under the circumstance of the same heat exchange capacity, Aluminum plate-fin heat exchangers have lighter weights that are 15 to 20% of those of shell-and-tube heat exchangers. Aluminum plate-fin heat exchangers can be used for the heat exchange between gas and gas, gas and oil, water and gas, and water and oil, condensation and evaporation with phase change or no phase change. Thanks to numerous advantages, aluminum plate-fin heat exchangers are widely used in petrochemical equipment, pneumatic separation equipment, and natural gas liquefaction equipment.
