RESEARCH OF THE DIRECTIONS OF IMPROVEMENT OF PLATE EXCHANGER HEAT
EXCHANGERS
The article provides an analysis of the known schemes of plate heat exchangers, their advantages
and disadvantages, as well as areas for improvement. Taking into account the results of the analysis
conducted in the department of dairy products of the Institute of Food Resources of the National Academy
of Agrarian Sciences of Ukraine, the All-Ukrainian Scientific Research Educational Consortium, the
authors developed an improved plate heat exchanger scheme, which combines high reliability, energy
efficiency and heating rate of the coolant with simplicity, compactness and low construction cost, with
ease of maintenance and repair (easy disassembly and cleaning). The dependences for the calculation of
the main design and operating parameters of an improved heat exchanger are given.
Key words: All-Ukrainian Scientific and Educational Consortium, UPC, heat exchanger, heat
transfer medium, plate, sealing and dividing partitions, head loss.

Technology, energy, agriculture transport AIC is a scholarly professional journal with a long-standing history and stable academic tradition, reflecting the evolution of engineering and technical sciences within the agro-industrial sector of Ukraine.
The journal was founded in 1997 under the title Bulletin of Vinnytsia State Agricultural Institute. According to the Resolution of the Presidium of the Higher Attestation Commission of Ukraine dated September 11, 1997, the publication obtained the status of a professional scientific journal, which enabled the publication of the main results of doctoral and candidate dissertations in technical sciences. From its inception, the journal positioned itself as an academic platform for addressing current issues of mechanization, electrification, and technical support of agricultural production. During 2001–2014, the journal was published under the title Proceedings of Vinnytsia National Agrarian University. Series: Technical Sciences (State Registration Certificate of Print Media KV No. 16644-5116 PR dated April 30, 2010). Throughout this period, a systematic approach to the selection and peer review of scientific manuscripts was established, the thematic scope of publications was expanded, and continuity of scientific directions as well as the development of sectoral engineering schools was ensured. Since 2015, the journal has been published under its current title, Technology, energy, agriculture transport AIC (State Registration Certificate No. 21906-11806 R dated March 12, 2016). The change of title reflected the expansion of the journal’s thematic coverage and its orientation toward interdisciplinary research in mechanical engineering, energy systems, electrical engineering, transport technologies, automation, and digital solutions for the agro-industrial complex.
