Power Boiler & Heat Exchanger Manufacturing in the US - Industry Risk Rating Report - new market report and analysis released

Power Boiler & Heat Exchanger Manufacturing in the US - Industry Risk Rating Report - a new market research report on companiesandmarkets.com


INDUSTRY RISK RATINGS REPORT ; This is the replacement for the February 2010 edition of Power Boiler & Heat Exchanger Manufacturing in the US Industry Risk Ratings Report.

Industry Risk Ratings Synopsis ; This Industry Risk Ratings report evaluates the inherent risks associated with the Power Boiler & Heat Exchanger Manufacturing in the US industry. Industry Risk is assumed to be

´the difficulty, or otherwise, of the business operating environment´. The report looks at the operational risk associated with this industry. Three types of risk are recognized in our analysis. These are: risk arising from within the industry itself (structural risk), risks arising from the expected future performance of the industry (growth risk) and risk arising from forces external to the industry (external sensitivity risk).

This approach is new in that it analyses non-financial information surrounding each industry. Industries are scored on a 9-point scale, where 1 represents the lowest risk and 9 the highest. The Industry Risk score measures expected Industry Risk over the coming 12-18 months.

Industry Definition ; The manufacturers of this industry make power boilers and heat exchangers. In addition to their manufacturing activities, firms in this industry also provide installation services for their products. Boilers are closed vessels in which a fluid is heated. A heat exchanger is a product that allows thermal energy to be transferred between fluids while keeping them separate. A radiator is a simple form of heat exchanger.

Report Contents
Risk Overview ; The Risk Overview chapter includes sections on Industry Definition and Activities, Industry Risk Score and Risk Rating Analysis. The Industry Definition and Activities section provides a detailed definition of the activities carried out by operators in this industry as defined in NAICS. A list of the primary activities of the industry is also included. The Industry Risk Score section provides the Overall Industry Risk Score as well as the Risk Scores for each of the three types of risk covered that combine to form the Overall Industry Risk Score. These three types of risk are Structural Risk, Growth Risk and External Sensitivity Risk. The Risk Rating Analysis section discusses the underlying factors contributing to the Overall Industry Risk Score.

Structural Risk ; The Structural Risk chapter looks at risk arising from within the industry itself and provides a detailed discussion of the industry’s level of exposure to seven key indicators. These key indicators are Barriers to Entry, Competition, Industry Exports, Industry Imports, Level of Assistance, Life Cycle Stage and Volatility of Industry. The Overall Structural Risk Score is a weighted aggregation of these seven key indicators. Each of the key indicators is discussed in detail in this section.

Growth Risk ; The Growth Risk chapter looks at risks arising from the expected future performance of the industry. The Overall Growth Risk Score is determined by amalgamating the scores for Recent Industry Growth and Forecast Industry Growth. Detailed analysis is provided discussing the reasons for the growth scores of both.

Sensitivity Risk ; The Sensitivity Risk chapter looks at risks arising from forces (sensitivities) external to the industry. The Overall External Sensitivity Risk Score is determined by identifying the most significant (up to 6) external factors and weighting them to represent how significant each sensitivity is to the performance of the industry. Examples of External Sensitivities are Exchange Rates, Interest Rates, Commodity Prices and Government Regulations. There is also a detailed analysis of the affect each of the sensitivities has on the industry, including charts and data tables where appropriate.

Industry Risk and Industry Risk Scoring Methodology ; This chapter provides an overview of how Industry Risk is defined and discusses the methodology used to arrive at an Industry Risk Score.

Research and Markets: Latin American Heat Exchangers Market

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/47eae6/latin_american_hea) has announced the addition of Frost & Sullivan's new report "Latin American Heat Exchangers Market" to their offering.
This study covers the state of the Latin American Heat Exchangers Market, examining drivers and restraints for growth, pricing, distribution, technology, legislation, demand and geographical trends. Following from these, market growth for regional and market segments are forecasted. In addition, an in-depth analysis of the competitive situation including vendors' market shares is performed, along with detailed profiles of the key vendors in the industry. The base year is 2008 with forecasts running through 2015. The market is further divided into four subsegments including shell and tubes, cooling towers, plate and air-cooled heat exchangers. Detailed analysis of five Latin American countries is included.
Market Overview and Definitions
Heat exchangers are devices used to transfer heat from a fluid or gas to another. This study does not consider products used to generate heat such as boilers and furnaces. Heat exchangers perform heat transfer by using different media such as air, gas, water, steam, oil, refrigerant, heat transfer fluids, glycol metals, and polymers. These heat exchangers are used for many manufacturing processes such as cooling, distilling, heating, heat transfers, pasteurization, vapor recovery, reactor slurry, evaporation and condensation, and others.
The study analyzes the heat exchangers market by three main criteria - product, end user, and geographical segmentations. In order to facilitate the analysis, this research service comprises the following product types:
  • Shell and tube heat exchangers
  • Plate heat exchangers
  • Air-cooled heat exchangers
  • Cooling towers heat exchangers
As a method of effecting the transfer of heat, heat exchangers play a central role in heating and cooling systems used in process industries as well as ambient heating and ventilation and machinery cooling. Heat exchangers operate as part of a heat transfer system, which will contain several heat exchange devices as well as pumps and pipe work. Only heat exchangers are included in this analysis.
The end-user groups considered include:
  • Oil and gas
  • Chemicals
  • Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC)
  • Utilities
  • Food, beverages, and dairy
  • Others
As this study focuses on Latin America, the five regional markets covered include:
  • Argentina
  • Brazil
  • Colombia
  • Mexico
  • Venezuela
Latin America as a whole is showing signs of recovery and stabilization. From this perspective, market conditions are likely to hold potential, with activities rebounding due to resilient private consumption and an ongoing recovery in industrial production. Moreover, the increased environmental and water conservation awareness has caused end-user companies to evaluate heat exchanger options with greater thought and precision. Although the global economic downturn has adversely affected the purchase of new products, heat exchangers are viewed as a capital expenditure by end users. Investment in refineries in the oil and gas industry and new chemical plants are expected to drive sales in the Latin American heat exchangers market.
Key Topics Covered:
  • 1 | EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
  • 2 | TOTAL LATIN AMERICAN HEAT EXCHANGERS MARKET
  • 3 | LATIN AMERICAN SHELL AND TUBE HEAT EXCHANGERS MARKET
  • 4 | LATIN AMERICAN COOLING TOWERS HEAT EXCHANGERS MARKET
  • 5 | LATIN AMERICAN PLATE HEAT EXCHANGERS MARKET

Spirax Sarco heat exchanger helps Harrogate cure high hydrotherapy heating bills


A compact Spirax Sarco EasiHeat™ steam-to-hot water system is proving to be a vital component in an innovative refurbishment project to help Harrogate Hospital save energy and improve patient comfort in its hydrotherapy unit.

By delivering improved heat recovery, temperature and humidity control, the scheme is expected to save over £2,000 per year in heating bills. The new measures are also expected to save almost 300 tonnes of CO2 emissions over the 15-year life of the plant.

The EasiHeat system provides hot water to an integrated Calorex Delta 10 unit, which controls both the temperature of the pool and the temperature and relative humidity of the air in the hydrotherapy and swimming pool. The Calorex system incorporates heat exchangers, an air handling unit and a heat pump. The heat pump recovers energy from excess moisture in the air above the pool to provide up to 25% of the heating energy needed in the pool room. The rest is provided by hot water from the EasiHeat system. The system maintains the pool temperature at between 34 and 36oC and conditions the air to a comfortable 30oC and 60% Relative Humidity.

The EasiHeat system was supplied as a compact, skid-mounted assembly, complete with all the necessary ancillary equipment. At its heart is a plate heat exchanger, which is more responsive and easier to control than bulkier shell-and-tube versions.

The Spirax Sarco unit was chosen because it can use plant steam to provide a reliable supply of on-demand hot water at a precise temperature. “We need rapid availability and close control of low-temperature hot water at a constant 82oC,” says Bob Howie, Capital Design and Project Manager. “The plate heat exchanger provides very good close control and hot water on-demand. It also has a much smaller footprint than other heat exchangers, freeing up space in the plant room.”

Another reason to opt for a heating system based on steam was the ready supply of plant steam, which was previously used in the shell-and-tube calorifier that heated the pool before the refurbishment.

As well as the new pool room systems, the refurbishment also includes a second air handling unit bringing fresh air into the adjacent rest area, while an integrated building control system monitors and optimises the energy performance of the entire hydrotherapy unit.

All the new systems are designed to comply with the latest recommendations for hydrotherapy units laid out in NHS Health Technical Memorandum Health Building Note 8 for Facilities for Rehabilitation Services. “These regulations weren’t around when the hospital was built in the mid-1970s, because no one worried then about climate http://www.pandct.com/media/shownews.asp?ID=25555change,” says Mr. Howie.

Wide plate heat exchangers avoid blockages

Gasketed, wide gap plate heat exchangers solve problems of blockages and contamination encountered when handling viscous fluids, solids or slurries.
The problems of blockages and contamination encountered handling viscous fluids, solids or slurries can be solved by the range of wide gap plate heat exchangers developed by SWEP PHE.
Gasketed plate heat exchangers can virtually eliminate downtime for cleaning through their free-flowing operation.
With a draw depth two to five times greater than conventional plates, the proven plate and frame design has been adapted to provide unrestricted passage of coarse particles or fluids that contain fibres.
Wide gap heat exchangers are available in a wide/narrow configuration when only one fluid requires a wide gap and a medium/medium configuration when both fluids need additional flow space.
The wide gap plate design will also accommodate the high volumetric flows of low pressure steam applications.
Moreover, with heat transfer areas of 5.3, 9.0 and 16.8ft2, wide gap plates transfer heat more efficiently, typically from harsh waste streams in the pulp, paper, sugar processing, chemical and textile industries.
The units also benefit from NBR or EPDM gaskets, allowing maximum temperatures of up to 270degF or 320degF respectively.
With a standard plate thickness of 0.8mm, with a 1mm option available, the plates are manufactured from durable and anti-corrosive materials stainless steel or titanium, and are available in Hastelloy for the most arduous duties as part of the Superchanger range.
Alan Ashton, General Manager for SWEP, says: "Our global expertise in the heat exchange market has enabled us to design a solution that is not only highly efficient, but which saves time, space and money for the processing industry.
