A unit in which the heat from one fluid (liquid or gas) is transferred to another. It usually takes the form of a bank of tubes carrying one (the primary) fluid flows. In the case of steam generators used in a PWR, both fluids are water, with the primary fluid circulating round the reactor and the secondary fluid circulating as steam through the turbine.

A heat exchanger is a plant, which transfers the thermal energy from one medium to another. Heat exchangers are very often used to utilize idle energy, e.g. of an exhaust gas, for pre-heating of combustion air and thus achieve a higher efficiency. In other cases, a circulating (radioactive) medium is not to leave the circuit and the energy is transferred to a medium harmless for further processing. Mostly tube or plate heat exchangers are used, whereat the heat transfer from one medium to the other takes place by means of heat conduction via the separating plate/tube walls.

This is the "guts" of either means of heating your pond. Inside the RayPac Versa 155 there's a huge-bore stainles steel exchanger. It's fish safe no matter where you hold the TA and pH. It's also a $350 upgrade to the Versa which has a sticker price of about $1200 so it's pricey. The HydraTherm is nothing but a heat exchanger. It's full of tubes which carry the hot water from the boiler. There's a second pump which pumps water through the jacket around the tube array. The water passes by the tubes and picks up heat.

Heat exchange is the method by which the unwanted heat is removed from a system. A heat exchanger is a device by which energy (in the form of heat) is transferred from one fluid or gas to another across a solid surface.

This is a device that enables furnaces to transfer heat from combustion safely into breathable air. The primary heat exchanger transfers heat from combustion gases to the air blowing through the ductwork. It's vital that none of the combustion gas itself gets into the airstream. The primary heat exchanger handles the hottest gases. In high efficiency furnaces, secondary heat exchangers recover heat that used to be vented up the chimney with the exhaust gases. By recovering this heat, the furnace becomes more efficient. Part of the heat recovered here causes the water and acid to condense out of the exhaust gas. Because this liquid is corrosive, secondary heat exchangers must be designed to prevent deterioration. Usually this means they are made of stainless steel or some derivative of it.

A heat exchanger is a device built for efficient heat transfer from one fluid to another, whether the fluids are separated by a solid wall so that they never mix, or the fluids are directly contacted. They are widely used in refrigeration, air conditioning, space heating, electricity generation, and chemical processing. One common example of a heat exchanger is the radiator in a car, in which a hot engine-cooling fluid, like antifreeze, transfers heat to air flowing through the radiator.
