Air Cooler (Finned Tube Heat Exchanger) for Chemical Plant

Air Cooler (Finned Tube Heat Exchanger) for Chemical Plant

Air cooler (finned tube heat exchanger) for chemical plant is a kind of heat exchange equipment widely used in chemical industry.

The air cooler mainly realises heat transfer through finned tubes. The heat fluid flows inside the tube, while the air is exchanged outside the tube through the fins. The role of fins is to increase the heat exchange area and improve the efficiency of heat exchange. When the heat of the thermal fluid is transferred to the fins and the outer wall of the tube, then the heat is taken away through the convection of the air, so that the thermal fluid is cooled.

Features of Air Cooler for Chemical Plant

High efficiency and energy saving: the finned tube heat exchanger has high heat transfer efficiency, which can realise a larger heat transfer volume in a smaller space, thus reducing energy consumption.

Compact structure: due to the finned tube structure, the air cooler is relatively small in size, occupies less space and is easy to install and arrange.

Strong adaptability: it can be adapted to different working environments and fluid media, and has strong corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance and high pressure resistance.

Convenient maintenance: the structure of the air cooler is relatively simple, low maintenance costs, cleaning and repair is more convenient.

Application

Cooling in the chemical production process: in chemical production, many processes require cooling of high-temperature fluids, air coolers can effectively meet this demand. For example, cooling of reaction products, intermediate products or raw materials to ensure the safety and stability of the production process.

Exhaust gas treatment: The exhaust gas emitted from chemical plants often contains heat, and the use of air coolers can cool the exhaust gas and reduce its temperature for subsequent treatment and discharge.

Waste heat recovery: In the chemical production process, a large amount of waste heat will be generated, the air cooler can recycle this waste heat and improve the efficiency of energy use.
