 Water Cooled Heat Exchangers

WATER COOLED HEAT EXCHANGERS OVERVIEW : –

Tipo Heat Exchangers backed by the team of experienced professionals, we are providing a wide gamut of Water Cooled Heat Exchanger. In addition, our range is highly appreciated by the clients. These are high appreciated by our valuable clients.

Heat exchanger is an equipment which reduces the temperature of a medium by transferring temperature of that medium to another, when both the mediums are separated by a solid membrane or wall like structure. For efficient operation, the surface area of the wall which separates the two mediums is maximized, simultaneously minimizing the flow resistance of the fluid.

Exchanging of heat in a heat exchanger can be in between- liquid and liquid, gas and liquid, liquid and gas etc. For heat transfer basically three patterns of flow are used for construction of a heat exchanger.

WATER COOLED HEAT EXCHANGERS FEATURES :

  1.     Dimensional accuracy
  2.     Optimum efficiency
  3.     Longer service

MATERIALS USED FOR WATER COOLED HEAT EXCHANGERS:

  1.     Materials we used for Shell : Copper, Carbon steel, stainless Steel sizes up to 20000 mm
  2.     Tubes Copper, Brass, Cupric-nickel, Carbon Steels in sizes from 6 mm to 50 mm OD, Stainless Steels
  3.     Tube Sheets: Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, Brass etc.
  4.     Channels and Cover: Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, Case Iron, Brass etc.
  5.     Gaskets: Rubber, Compressed

APPLICATION OF WATER COOLED HEAT EXCHANGER:

  1.     Air conditioning
  2.     Processing of natural gas
  3.     Chemical Plants
  4.     Petroleum Refining
  5.     Plastic Machinery
  6.     Hydraulic Power Packs

WATER COOLED COOLING TOWERS MAINTENANCE:

  1.     Less expensive as compared to other type coolers.
  2.     Can be used in systems with a wide range operating temperatures and pressures.
  3.     Pressure drop across a shell and tube heat exchangers is less.
  4.     Tube leaks are easily located and plugged since pressure test is comparatively easy.
  5.     Tubular coolers in refrigeration system can act as receiver also.
  6.     Using sacrificial anodes protect the whole cooling system against corrosion.
  7.     Extended heat transfer surfaces (fins) can be used to enhance heat transfer.
  8.     Cleaning and repair are relatively straightforward, because the equipment can be dismantled for this purpose.
