Overall Didactic Concept
The transfer of heat, with its different
forms of transfer, is the foundation
of thermodynamics. The controlled
transfer of heat takes place in a heat
exchanger. Depending on the require-
ments, different heat exchangers are
used in practice in order to enable an
efficient transfer of heat.
Process Schematic
Training System
Students often find the notoriously
difficult and dry content of applied
thermodynamics hard to understand.
The WL 110 series helps to methodi-
cally link and apply learnt theory with
real world, practical components.
Real Technical
Components
Linking theory and practice
provides the foundation
for understanding complex
technical relationships.
gunt
We speak from experience and, with
our educationally beneficial overall
concept, we want to help you to teach
this complex subject.
Data Acquisition
The modular WL 110 series of equipment offers exten-
sive experiments on different heat exchangers. Different
­models of heat exchangers are investigated and com-
pared with each other.
In order to visualise the thermal processes in the heat
exchanger, our innovative and powerful software is an
integral part of the training system. The software enables
a unique form of representation and helps students to
conduct and evaluate experiments. The software deliber-
ately helps create a link between practice and theory.
To complete our overall didactic concept, WL 110
­includes multimedia training software which supports

students in the preparation and follow-up of experiments.
The training software enables independent learning of the
theoretical fundamentals and, through explanatory texts,
illustrations and moving images, contributes to under-
standing of the topic.

WL 110.01 Tubular WL 110.02 Plate
Heat Exchanger Heat Exchanger

Tubular heat exchangers are the simplest type of heat
­exchanger design. They are preferred when heat is being
­transferred at high pressure differences or between highly
­viscous media. One advantage is that flow through the
pipe space is even and free of flow dead zones.
The hot water is fed through the core tube (inner) and the
cold water fed through the jacket tube (outer). In doing so,
the hot water continuously emits some of its thermal energy
to the cold water.
Plate heat exchangers are mainly characterised by their
­compact structural shape, in which the entire medium is used
for heat transfer. One advantage is the low space requirement,

Connecting the plates to each other results in two hermetically

channel alternate in the arrangement. The narrow tube channels
produce turbulent flow.

Two additional temperature sensors are located on the tubular

heat exchanger to measure the temperature after one half of
the transfer section. 1

Heat Exchanger
Shell and tube heat exchangers are characterised by the large
heat transfer area and the compact structural shape.
The shell and tube heat exchanger consists of seven core &)

tubes, surrounded by a transparent jacket tube. The hot water
flows through the core tubes and the cold water flows through
the jacket tube. In doing so, the hot water emits some of its
thermal energy to the cold water. Using baffle plates, the flow

WL 110.04 Jacketed vessel
with stirrer and coil
Many engineering processes use simple stirrer tanks. These are
often fitted with a double jacket or a coiled tube for cooling or !(¡{

heating. Stirring machines are used for better mixing of the tank
contents and for an even temperature distribution.
The jacketed vessel with stirrer and coil consists of a tank
­surrounded by a jacket. In the tank is a coiled tube. In the heating
with jacket operating mode, the hot water flows through the
the tank. In the heating with coiled tube operating mode, the hot
water flows through the coiled tube and heats the cold water in
the tank. A stirring machine can be used in all operating modes.
