The arrangement and distribution of flow channels in multi-stream heat exchangers are critical factors that directly influence heat-transfer efficiency and flow performance, and they represent one of the core technical challenges in both design and manufacturing. During the design process, priority should be given to minimizing temperature differences across the same heat-transfer wall, ensuring a balanced distribution of flow resistance among all channels, and adopting symmetric layouts wherever possible. These principles not only enhance thermal performance and operational stability, but also reduce manufacturing complexity, simplify installation, improve structural load distribution, and ultimately increase the overall reliability and service life of the equipment.
