Heat Exchanger Market Outlook – 2030

The global heat exchanger market size was valued at $16.7 billion in 2020, and is projected to reach $28.3 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2020 to 2030. A heat exchanger is a device that facilitates the process of heat exchange between two fluids that are at different temperatures. Heat exchangers are used in many engineering applications, such as refrigeration, heating and air-conditioning systems, power plants, chemical processing systems, food processing systems, automobile radiators, and waste heat recovery units. 

In addition, air preheaters, economizers, evaporators, superheaters, condensers, and cooling towers used in a power plant are a few examples of heat exchangers. Moreover, heat exchangers are an enabling technology for efficient power generation with a closed, recuperated Brayton cycle, using supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO2) as the working fluid. Heat exchangers influence the overall system efficiency and system size. Heat exchanger designs must balance between heat exchanger effectiveness and pressure drop to achieve the desired tradeoff between system efficiency and system size. This tradeoff between system efficiency and system size is expected to vary with each energy conversion system application.

Impact Of Covid-19 Onglobal Heat Exchanger Market

  • The manufacturing of heat exchanger stopped for a specific period due to high peak of COVID-19, which highly impacted sales of the heat exchanger.
  • According to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), a surge in the price of crude oil began during the lockdown, due to extensive supply and less demand, which increased the production of electricity. However, there is no impact of COVID-19 on the heat exchanger market, due to the extensive production of oil.
  • Sales of heat exchanger is directly proportional to the demand for oil & gas. The oil & gas industry is negatively impacted amid the lockdown imposed due to the COVID-19 outbreak and recorded a huge decline in crude prices in 2020 due to the resumed overflow production, However, the continued upstream activities has not impacted the demand for heat exchanger.
  • COVID-19 impacted almost all industries by hindering various industrial operations and disrupting the supply chain. Maximum companies halted their operation due to less workforce. However, there is a sluggish decline in the global heat exchanger market due to impact of COVID-19. 
  • Furthermore, import and export activities were significantly impacted, which, in turn, adversely affected the industries using heat exchanger and thereby, affecting the global heat exchanger market. 
  • According to the UNIDO, 30.0%–70.0% of pre-COVID-19 workforce of various industries, such as chemical, petrochemical, oil & gas, HVACR, food & beverages, power generation, and other third-party vendors migrated to their hometowns, due to uncertainties and loss of income during the lockdown. This unavailability or less availability of workforce is expected to directly affect the production and manufacturing activities, thereby resulting in decline in demand for raw materials used in heat exchanger. This is expected to decline the growth of the market during the forecast period.
  • The COVID-19 pandemic has had a swift and severe impact on the globally integrated automotive industry. Factors include, disruption in Chinese parts exports, large scale manufacturing interruptions across Europe, and closure of assembly plants in the U.S. However, with decrease in sales of automobile led to decrease in the sales of radiator which in turn to gives a high impact on the heat exchanger market.
