Purpose of oil Cooling

Oil cooling process is the used to cool the hot oil that used in cooling hot equipment’s in heavy industries and heavy equipment’s where cooling process is required. The cooled oil flows back into the hot object to cool it continuously.

Type of oil Cooler

Water cooled oil cooler (Shell and tube and plate heat exchanger)

Air Cooled oil Cooler (Radiator Type)

Construction of Shell and Tube oil cooler: The shell and tube exchanger is a cooling task by circulating a hot liquid around tubes which contain a cooler liquid. The hot liquid circulates in an enclosed area called the shell. Tubes containing the cooler liquid are looped through the shell.

Construction of Air Cooled oil Cooler: it contain cooling coil with copper tube and aluminium fin and  a cooling fan with motor,
