Air Coolers
In applications where there are no available heat sinks, heat can be managed using air coolers. Process fluid is cooled using ambient air. Our air coolers routinely outweigh the competition. Our structural design, fan and drive system are strong and robust, further reducing vibration and rotating component wear.
There are two main categories of air cooled heat exchangers: Dry Coolers and Wet Coolers. The main components of an air cooled exchanger are a tube bundle and a fan. The tubes contain process fluid and the fan blows air over the tubes, cooling the process fluid and rejecting heat to the atmosphere.
Dry Coolers
DRY COOLER tube bundles are built using extended surface area finned tubes. The process fluid is cooled within a close approach to the dry bulb temperature.
Types of Coolers
Hybrid
HYBRID SOLUTIONS
use dry air coolers and evaporative coolers in tandem to achieve the best heat rejection performance.
Wet Coolers
WET COOLERS are build using bare tube bundles. Process fluid within the tubes are cooled by simultaneously spraying them with water and blowing air. This is a process known as evaporative cooling, in which the process fluid is cooling within a close approach to the wet bulb temperature.
