ABSTRACT

Domestic electric heater manufacturers are focusing on technology development to improve the efficiency of existing products. The electric heater for ship fuel is large in size and has high difficulty in miniaturization/high efficiency, so there are not many companies that try to develop technology yet. The existing electric heater has a structure of low heating efficiency because the contact time with the heat exchange tube of the heating medium is very short because the flow path of the ship engine fuel is monotonous. Since it is manufactured in a tubular shape, the volume is very large regardless of the heating efficiency. As a result, the tubular electric heater device applied by overseas advanced companies has difficulty in maintaining and repairing because it is necessary to decompose all tubular heaters when a specific part of the inside is damaged and if the heat exchange tube is damaged, all the heat exchange tubes must be decomposed. In this study, a basic study on plate type electric heaters capable of heating 10 tons of ship engine fuel per hour and setting a maximum temperature of up to 150°C was conducted through a 250kW capacity plate type electric heater.
