Types of Heat Exchangers: What You Must Know

It is very rare not to find a heat exchanger in a modern industrial plant. The heat exchangers are so critical to the plant’s operations that they may even determine the overall energy efficiency. Designing a good heat exchanger encompasses maintainability and types of fluids used, but we will try t[..]

Industrial refrigerant used in chillers and refrigeration plants

What is an ideal industrial refrigerant? There is no absolute answer to this question. No refrigerant fits the requirements 100 % for all cooling plants. An ideal refrigerant would need to have it all in terms of material compatibility, chemical stability, performance, non-toxicity, non-flammability[..]

How do absorption chillers work?

The original design of an absorption chiller is credited to the likes of Ferdinand Carré, Carl Munters and Baltzar Von Platen, renowned scientists who did their works between the 1850s and 1920s. While the products were first produced commercially in 1923, it was only in the 60s that serious product[..]

Water Chiller Plant: many options available

There are many options available for generating chilled water. Perhaps none does so more efficiently than the water-cooled chiller, an essential part of Industrial Refrigeration. A water-cooled chiller is designed specifically to remove heat from a cooling system and transfer that heat elsewhere. Wa[..]
