Transformer Cooling (A Different Type of “Oil”) This is a special case where the “oil” is a dielectric insulating fluid, not a lubricant.

Use of oil cooler in power Generation? The use of oil coolers in power generation is absolutely critical and non-negotiable across all major technologies. They are a fundamental component for ensuring reliability, efficiency, and longevity of multi-million dollar assets. 1. Gas Turbine Power Plants This is one of the most demanding applications. A...

Admiralty brass vs Navel Brass, which one is best for Sea water Application? For seawater application, especially in critical heat exchanger tubes, Admiralty Brass is generally the superior and more reliable choice. Naval Brass is better suited for shafts, valves, and fasteners. Here’s a detailed breakdown of why: Key Differences at aGlance...

How to increase the efficiency of shell and tube oil cooler On the Oil Side (Tube Side, typically): On the Water/Coolant Side (Shell Side, typically): Fouling layers act as a massive insulator. Keeping surfaces clean is the single most effective maintenance action. 2. Maximize the Effective Heat Transfer Area (A)
