Has anyone tried to mechanically clean a spiral plate heat exchanger with sponge balls, bristle balls, or any other type? I am familiar with the shell and tube process of this type of cleaning and how much more performance is obtained. If you could circulate cleaning balls in a plate exchanger would they be effective? Obviously not as efficient as a tube type, but if constantly circulated wouldn't they randomly clean the surfaces and extend the time between a physical/chemical cleaning? Any information or opinions welcome. Btw, this is my first post.
Thanks.
