WB7 heat exchanger
At the heart of the Greenstar CDi
Compact is the ground-breaking
WB7 heat exchanger, which uses
advanced friction stir welding*
to create more passageways than
traditional heat exchangers. These
channels provide more effi cient
circulation, resulting in a more
effective heat transfer and
quieter operation.
Designed, tested and manufactured
within Bosch Thermotechnology
Ltd., the WB7 heat exchanger
delivers high output despite its
compact size.
Friction stir welding
Friction stir welding is a solid state
machining process where the metal
is softened rather than melted,
giving improved quality, reliability
and performance.
Widely used for demanding
applications in the aviation, marine
and automotive sectors, it has
enabled Worcester to manufacture
a more compact heat exchanger,
reducing the overall size of the
boiler while delivering a high power
ratio of up to maximum 36kW.
