About Fluid heat exchangers:

Fluid heat exchangers with a gas passing upwards through a shower of fluid (often water), and the fluid is then taken elsewhere before being cooled. This is commonly used for cooling gases whilst also removing certain impurities, thus solving two problems at once. It is widely used in espresso machines as an energy-saving method of cooling super-heated water to use in the extraction of espresso.

Applications:

Tipo Heat Exchangers has expanded upon our success of our shell and tube heat exchangers and plate and frame heat exchanger by developing expertise with several fluid heating mediums. Many applications can benefit from the use of additional heat recovery techniques. In many cases, fluid heating systems represent very efficient recovery methods.  Tipo Heat Exchangers has nearly 45 years of heat recovery expertise.

Various Applications for Fluid Heating

•  Steam recuperation
• Water heating
• Glycol heating
• Thermal Oil heating

A heat exchanger is a device which transfers heat from one medium to another, a Hydraulic Oil Cooler or example will remove heat from hot oil by using cold water or air. Alternatively a Swimming Pool Heat Exchanger uses hot water from a boiler or solar heated water circuit to heat the pool water. Heat is transferred by conduction through the exchanger materials which separate the mediums being used. A shell and tube heat exchanger passes fluids through and over tubes, where as an air cooled heat exchanger passes cool air through a core of fins to cool a liquid.
