Press release from: QY Research

Global and U.S. Free-flow Heat Exchangers Market Report,

Free-Flow Heat Exchangers are specialized thermal transfer systems designed to handle fluids containing fibers, particles, or high viscosity without clogging or fouling. Unlike conventional plate or shell-and-tube exchangers, these units employ wide-gap or open-channel flow paths that allow unrestricted movement of process media, ensuring continuous heat transfer efficiency even under challenging conditions. Constructed from stainless steel, titanium, or nickel alloys, free-flow exchangers are ideal for food and beverage processing, wastewater treatment, chemical production, and pulp & paper industries. Their design enables high turbulence, self-cleaning action, and low pressure drop, making them highly efficient for heating, cooling, and pasteurization of complex fluid streams.
