Application and development of air cooler

The air cooler uses ambient air as a cooling medium, and the fan forces air to sweep across the finned tube, so that the high-temperature process fluid in the tube is cooled or condensed. The air cooler unit consists of three basic parts: finned tube bundle, fan, frame, and auxiliary parts such as shutters, maintenance platform, and ladder. Using natural air as a cooling medium saves precious water resources, reduces the discharge of industrial sewage, and protects the natural environment. Widely used in chemical industry, petrochemical, thermal power plant, polycrystalline silicon, polyvinyl chloride, metallurgical cement, production line waste incineration power plant, etc.
The development of the air cooler has gone through three stages, from the steel-aluminum composite round tube fins of the 50s to the elliptical finned tube in 70s, and the large flat tube finned tubes of the 90s. It can be said that the air cooler has made great progress. In todays society, energy is becoming increasingly tense. How to effectively use the earths resources and energy saving is a modern issue. The birth of air cooler can be said to have contributed to energy saving and emission reduction. Air cooler is an ideal substitute for shell and tube water cooler. Our company has long been committed to the research and development of air coolers. Through relevant tests and demonstrations, through practice and summary, we have developed energy-saving air coolers. The air cooler developed by our company reduces the heat transfer resistance inside and outside the tube by enhancing the heat transfer coefficient of the film inside and outside the tube, and the reasonable fin pitch is designed according to different working conditions, which can realize the enhanced heat transfer effect of the air cooler under different working conditions.

What is tube sheet layout?

What is tube sheet layout? A tube sheet is a component used in shell and tube heat exchangers and other types of heat transfer equipment. It is a flat plate with holes drilled in it, through which tubes are inserted and secured. The tube sheet serves as a barrier between the two fluids, allowing heat to be transferred from one to the other. The layout of the tube sheet depends on the design of the heat exchanger, which includes the number of tubes, the size of the tubes, and the spacing between the tubes. The layout is typically determined using computer-aided design (CAD) software, which can optimize the placement of the tubes to achieve the desired heat transfer performance. In general, the tubes are arranged in a triangular or square pattern on the tube sheet. The triangular pattern is often preferred because it provides better support for the tubes and reduces the risk of vibration and damage. The spacing between the tubes is also important, as it affects the flow rate and pressure

1. What is a finned tube bundle? Finned tube bundle composed of multiple finned tubes arranged according to certain rules is called finned tube bundle. A finned tube heat exchanger can be composed of one or more finned tube bundles. 2. What is the composition of the finned tube bundle? Finned tube (multiple tubes): basic element of heat transfer. Tube box (header) or tube plate: the header, elbow or steel plate connecting the two ends of the fin tube. When the finned tube is connected with the header or tube sheet, the spacing between the finned tubes is fixed, and the tube box forms a continuous flow channel for the fluid in the tube. Frame: support and fix the whole finned tube bundle. 3. Finned tube bundle arrangement? In a  finned tubes bundle , the selection of fin tube arrangement is crucial. There are two types of arrangement: staggered and sequential. The so-called staggered arrangement refers to the cross arrangement of pipes in the air flow direction, while the in-line arran

What is heat exchange tube sheet?

What is heat exchange tube sheet? A heat exchange tube sheet is a component used in heat exchangers, which are devices that transfer heat from one fluid to another. The tube sheet is typically a flat, circular plate that separates the two fluid streams and contains holes through which the heat exchange tubes pass. The tubes are typically sealed into the tube sheet by welding or expansion, and the sheet is often made of materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, or titanium. The purpose of the tube sheet is to provide a rigid support structure for the heat exchange tubes and to ensure that the tubes are properly aligned and spaced for efficient heat transfer. The tube sheet also serves to contain the fluid streams and prevent them from mixing, which could reduce the efficiency of the heat exchange process. Tube sheets can be designed for various types of heat exchangers, such as shell and tube, double pipe, and plate heat exchangers. The design of the tube sheet is typically based
