Abstract

See full text

A method and an apparatus for heating or cooling material having poor thermal conductivity, especially medium-consistency fiber suspensions. The material is directed, substantially as a plug flow, at a velocity below 5 m/s (e.g. 0.1-1 m/s) through an apparatus formed by a flow channel provided with heat exchange surfaces. The flow of the material is throttled at a throttling point by a more than 30% reduction in the cross-sectional area of the channel. After throttling, the material is discharged from the throttling point in such a manner that another portion of the material contacts the heat exchange surfaces.
