Two-Stage After cooler Cooling Systems The two-stage after cooler, currently offered for some gas engines, is intended to provide high temperature heat recovery for Electric Power Generation (EPG) applications and Reduce overall radiator sizing for Gas Compression applications. There are two coolant stages on the two-stage after cooler; the first...

Types of Cooling Systems • Radiator • Heat Exchanger • Submerged Pipe • Cooling Tower • Keel & Box Coolers • Seawater Systems • Electrochemical Series

All internal combustion engines produce heat as a byproduct of combustion andfriction. This heat can reach temperatures up to 1925°C (3500°F) and can havecatastrophic effects on engine components. Pistons, valves and cylinder headsmust be cooled to reduce the risk of detonation. Cylinder temperatures need to becontrolled so lubricating oil can...

Working Principles of Heat Exchanger Heat exchanger functions by transferring heat from higher to lower temperatures. Heat can thus be transferred from the hot fluid to the cold fluid if a hot fluid and a cold fluid are separated by a heat-conducting surface. The operation of a heat exchanger is governed by thermodynamics. Heat can […]

Common materials used in heat exchangers Selecting the materials used in a heat exchanger is a pivotal part of the design. They need to be heat conductive whilst withstanding any corrosive properties of the mediums involved. Some materials will wear or get dirty faster than others, so upkeep and durability is another consideration. Conductive...
