Abstract
A counter current heat exchanger amenable to fabrication from monolithic materials and particularly useful in corrosive and high temperature environments is described. The heat exchanger uses multiple series of holes bored axially through a monolithic material. Axial holes are bored in adjacent flow paths arranged in closely spaced concentric rings. In operation, counter current flow and heat transfer occurs between multiple adjacent axial flow paths. The heat exchanger design is scaleable over a wide range and particularly useful in reactors for the hydrogenation of halosilanes also using cylindrical heating elements. The design enables a small overall reactor size for a given capacity.
