11 Questions about Types of Heat Exchangers and Air Coolers
1. What is a wet air cooler?
If the structure of the air cooler is slightly improved and a small amount of water is sprayed on the surface of the fins, water evaporation can play a role in enhancing heat transfer, thereby improving the heat transfer efficiency. This type of air cooler is called a wet air cooler.
2. What types of heat exchange equipment can be divided according to the principle of heat transfer?
According to the principle of heat transfer, heat exchangers can be divided into three types: mixed type, regenerative type and partition type.
3. What types of heat exchange equipment can be divided according to the type of heat transfer?
According to the type of heat transfer, heat exchange equipment can be divided into the following categories:
