TECHNOLOGY SUMMARY
Makai’s TFHX represents an important advance in compact heat exchanger technology. Its innovative design enables higher heat transfer surface area densities, maximizing heat transfer performance in a compact envelope. The thin layers of each TFHX plate mean more heat transfer area can be packed into a fixed volume.
