The oil cooler is arranged in the circulating oil circuit of the lubrication system. Full-flow (also known as water-cooled oil cooler) is actually a liquid-liquid heat exchanger. The heat is oil and the coolant is water. Typically, the oil in this heat exchanger enters the tube and the water enters the shell. Oil/water coolers perform cooling in a very effective way. Since water has high thermal conductivity, oil-water coolers have a very compact design while safeguarding a high cooling capacity. Mainly two types of oil-water coolers are used in hydraulics: plate heat exchangers or bundle of pipes heat exchangers. Oil-water coolers perform cooling in a very effective way.
