Cooling Systems
Cooling systems remove the heat source from a system. Some of the common types of cooling systems include liquid-to-air, air-to-air, and liquid-to-liquid heat exchangers. Industrial buildings, automobile engines, commercial facilities, and power plants all use cooling systems on an everyday basis.
The types of cooling systems differ based on the state of the material they cool. Liquid-to-air cooling systems, for instance, transport heat from a liquid to the surrounding air. Air-to-air cooling systems supply ventilation for areas such as industrial buildings and commercial facilities. Liquid-to-liquid heat exchangers, in contrast, move heat from a fluid or gas to a different fluid or gas.
When selecting a cooling system, important factors to consider depend on the type of cooling system selected. Manufacturers will usually indicate the flow rate, inlet and outlet temperatures, heat exchanger type, and the viscosity and density of the heat-transfer fluid.
