Tube cooler
Thread Content
For shell-and-tube oil coolers, is a higher water flow rate associated with a better cooling effect?
That is, under the same conditions, does a higher water flow rate result in a better cooling effect?
It mainly depends on the total length of the tubes in the heat exchanger’s tube side, as well as its surface area
There are certain conditions required for this; the flow rate of the coolant is affected by resistance. So there are certain limitations, as well as limitations related to the temperature difference between the two sides. It is recommended to read a book on Principles of Chemical Engineering.
