Fin fan cooler is usually considered clean service, although some customers will specify an airside-fouling factor as a result of airborne contaminants. Usually a fouling factor is only included for the process side of the cooler. The fouling factor is actually a resistance to heat transfer and is actually added to the other resistances due to the heat transfer coefficients.
There is no limit on the total size. However, there is a limit on the width of one bay and height during transportation as restricted by roads and bridge heights. Most manufacturers limit the width of one bay to 16 ft., which often coincides with the maximum 50HP belt drive system.
Fin Fan Cooler is nothing but traditional name of Air Cooled Heat Exchanger. The Air Cooled Heat Exchangers are also known as Fin fan Coolers. Since Fins are used in the Cooler it is called as Fin fan
Specifications
-
- Fin fan coolers, the ambient air is used as the cooling media to cool the main hot fluid which is used in tube side.
Applications :
-
- The finned tubes are having more contact surface. All the tubes used in the coolers are finned tubes.
Advantages :
- The fin fan cooler is one of the best closed circuit and water savable cooling system.
