Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0641980A1] The present invention relates to a device for heat exchange between a coolant fluid (1) undergoing vaporisation and a fluid (2) to be cooled which is undergoing freezing. According to the invention, the device comprises a duct (3) for the fluid to be cooled, a casing (7) which forms, around the duct (3), an enclosure (8) for passage of the coolant fluid, and a mechanical means (11) for separating the wall (6) of the duct (3) from any solid phase in the fluid to be cooled, which mechanical means (11) consists of a rotor (12) provided with flexible radial filaments (14). The invention applies in particular to obtaining homogeneous mixtures of water and of ice. <IMAGE>
