Direct Fired Heater Applications
Direct fired heaters can either be used in radiant or convection heat exchanges and adopt different configurations according to their applications.
Direct fired heater applications. We ve put together a video with some of our most common direct fired heater applications which you can see below. Direct fired heaters are used for specific applications. Direct fired heaters are great for use in a variety of environments especially in warehouses construction sites and outdoor spaces. Radiant heat transfer can be undesirable in certain temperature sensitive applications as radiant heat transfer tends to be more intense and unevenly distributed around the coil surface.
A convection style heater offers the benefits of a direct fired heater while eliminating some of the drawbacks associated with radiant heat transfer. A direct fired heater or an industrial furnace uses the hot gases of combustion to transfer the heat to the liquids flowing in the heat exchange coils.
