How to check the inlet cooler?

The inlet cooler is the main equipment in the compressed air system. It can cool the high temperature compressed air produced by the air compressor and remove a lot of water in the compressed air. The product has two series: air-cooled and water-cooled. Air-cooled is easy to install, low operating cost and suitable for places with insufficient water resources. Water cooling type has small volume, high cooling efficiency, can be used in high temperature, high humidity, dusty environment.

How to check the inlet cooler?

1. Strengthen technology

A variety of new and efficient coolers have gradually replaced the existing conventional products. Such as power plant dynamic effect enhanced heat transfer technology, additive enhanced boiling heat transfer technology, inert gas enhanced heat transfer technology, drop condensation technology, microbial heat transfer technology, magnetic field dynamic heat transfer technology, nano fluid heat transfer technology and other research and development have created favorable conditions for the successful upgrading of cooler.

2. Anti-scaling technology

With the deepening of scaling mechanism research, the methods of cooler to prevent scaling have also made progress, such as the use of surface coating or special surface shape, in-tube spring inserts or cleaning balls and other online descaling, acoustic descaling, using descaling agent after changing the flow channel scaling and other technologies have achieved industrial applications.

3. Anti-vibration technology

In the traditional shell and tube cooler, because the fluid is in the cross-flow state, transverse scour the heat exchange tube beam, the fluid in the rear of the tube formed by the Periodic alternation of Kaman vortex street causes eddy current induced vibration of the tube, most of the pipe is easy to destroy the cooler failure. In this case, longitudinal flow shell side cooler came into being, of which the baffle cooler is the typical generation.

4, anti-corrosion technology

In recent years, the research and design in the field of plate cooler anticorrosive have made remarkable achievements, such as the development of anode protection technology and the application of new anticorrosive materials have brought infinite vitality to the development of cooler. In addition, the application of non-metallic materials also greatly improves the corrosion resistance of the cooler.

The arrangement of the tubes on the tube plate of the imported cooler not only considers the compactness of the equipment, but also takes into account the properties of the fluid, the structural design and the processing and manufacturing situation.

One, regular triangle and corner regular triangle arrangement, suitable for cleaning with shell side medium, and do not need to carry out mechanical cleaning occasions.

Two, square and corner square arrangement, can make the bridge between the tube to form a straight channel, easy to use mechanical cleaning, generally used for cleaning tube bundle can be drawn out between the occasions.
