What is oil heat exchanger?

Put simply, 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.

What is exchanger in oil and gas?

A heat exchanger is a piece of industrial equipment uniquely designed to conduct thermal energy between two media (typically a heated process fluid and a cooling liquid or gas). The fluids in contact may or may not be separated by a barrier.

What is the purpose of an exchanger?

Heat exchangers are used to transfer heat from one medium to another. These media may be a gas, liquid, or a combination of both. The media may be separated by a solid wall to prevent mixing or may be in direct contact.

What is the purpose of a fuel oil heat exchanger?

A fuel/oil heat exchanger and associated circuitry is provided to maintain the hot engine oil in heat exchange relationship with the cool engine fuel.

What is an exchanger in a refinery?

In refineries heat exchangers are used for the crude oil distillation and subsequent refining stages. GESMEX heat exchangers are used as preheaters, re-boilers, condensers, economizers and as cooler of refined products.

What is exchanger and types?

A heat exchanger is a device which transfers (or exchanges) heat from one fluid to another. There are many different names for heat exchangers because of their varied applications.

How does a heat exchanger work Oil and Gas?

How Does a Heat Exchanger Work? Heat exchangers function by bringing a cooled fluid into close contact with a hot industrial process or piece of equipment. This allows for an exchange of the heat between the two mediums by using the principles of thermal heat conduction.
