Air cooling and water cooling

What do you feel when you are in the air compressor room? Noisy and hot! Basically the air compressor is the electricity powered mechanical system with shaft and gears turning the electric energy into mechanical energy, and a lot of heat occurred during the machine running.

Cooler specifications to confirm before order

If the cooler you are going to buy is the radiator, that would be easy, most important thing is to confirm the part number. For example, you are planning to buy the replacement of Atlas Copco radiator of part number xxxx, all you need to do is to confirm the part number.

Fins density and the working performance

The structure of the inter cooler is fins and tubes of most centrifugal air compressor models, for example the IHI, Elliott, Cooper Cameron, Samsung, etc. The fins stacked and expanded tightly on the tubes to have the full contact, so that the heat of the hot air could be transferred by the cooling water in the tubes.

Types of heat exchanger in air compressor

The cooler’s principle is the heat exchanger, which is the product could have two fluids exchange their heat, one fluid would get cooled while another one would get heated, so basically there are  cooler and heater in heat exchanger, considering the phase change of the fluid, there’s evaporator in heater and condenser in cooler. We only talk about the cooler here as we want it to cool the stuff.

Inter cooler seal kit

The inter cooler seal kit are used for the assembly, first the seals are needed to prevent the leak of the water when it comes into the tubes, on the other hand the air or oil needs to be kept in the housing by the seals. The cooler assembly would need a couple of seals in different types which called inter cooler seal kit.
