Baffle Plate Support Plate Condenser Parts SA516 Gr.70 Petrochemical/Marine/Oil Gas/Food Processing Industry
Baffle plate is a plate designed to restrain or regulate the flow of fluid. Baffles are components of shell and tube heat exchangers which are used to support and fix the tubes in a defined position.
The main machining process for baffle plates is drilling. Baffle plates are thin and are often machined by stacking multiple plates, so it is necessary to handle stacked plate drilling.
Tungaloy’s innovative drilling products are designed to handle highly difficult drilling processes, such as stacked plate drilling, for improved productivity.

Functions that baffles are often used for.
To support tubes in heat exchangers.
Tubes must be supported at intervals not more than 1.5 m (5 ft), this mainly depends on the diameter of the tube and material of construction. The support intervals can be shorter where flow-induced vibrations occur in certain operations.
Supporting the tubes using baffles also prevents mechanical vibrations that can result in tubes touching each other and giving rise to leakages and failures mainly near tube sheets
To enhance heat transfer by directing the flow through the shell in a desired pattern.
This also increases the turbulence and reduces the stagnant pockets in the heat exchanger. We can also maintain a desired velocity by introducing baffles.
