Selecting the proper recirculating chiller is a function of four factors: The heat load generated by the device being cooled (Q) The maximum acceptable temperature of the fluid exiting the heat source (TOUT) Available fluid flow rate Ambient operating conditions (V̇)...
Centrifugal Pump Overview Reliable Pumps for Liquid Cooling Systems The term “centrifugal pump” encompasses a multitude of pump technologies. Centrifugal means “directed or moving away from a center or axis”, therefore a centrifugal pump uses a...
How to Calculate Which Fan is Right for Your Application The most well known type of heat exchanger is a car radiator. In a radiator, a solution of water and ethylene glycol, also known as antifreeze, transfers heat from the engine to the radiator and then from the...
In order to select the correct heat exchanger or oil cooler, you must first determine required thermal performance for your application. Use the example shown below: Select the Cooling Liquid Step 1: Application Data Liquid Type: Water Required Heat Load (Q): 3,300 W...
Fluid line connectors are essential to liquid cooling loops. Engineers must consider selection, installation, and maintenance of a system’s fluid connections to prevent leaks and ensure system longevity. Fluid Coupling and Connector Selection Choosing the Right...
When trying to understand how a compressor based cooling system works, you must keep three physical phenomena in mind: Fundamental Physical Principles When a gas is compressed its temperature increases. Conversely, when it is expanded its temperature decreases. This...
