What is differences between cooling tower and heat exchanger?

Cooling towers are also known as an air conditioner's radiator unit. A mist cooling system are fans that have water dripping in front of them in boxed units. These are still used in some parts of the developing world in the absence of air conditioners.


What is the fuction of a water pump fitted to an engine?

It circulates the coolant throughout the cooling system.


How do you replace tube heat exchanger?

Heat exchange tubes are intended for heating or cooling process fluids, they are for example suitable for closed circuit cooling of electrical equipment using demineralised water and for cooling water soluble oil solutions in quenching tanks.


What is the purpose of a heat exchanger in a cooling system water?

Similar function to a car radiator or an air conditioning condenser. The heat from the fluid is pressurized to build up heat. As it passes through the heat exchanger, the heat from the heated fluid is exhanged to the ambient air which passes through the cooling fins.


Can you put cold water on compressor outside to increase efficiency of ac?

No. Cooling the compressor will do little to improve the efficiency of the system. The compressor will be slightly more efficient, but the overall efficiency of the heat transfer will be unchanged. Cooling the condenser (the outside heat exchanger coils) will do more, but the money saved in AC costs will be offset by water wasted. Also, keep in mind the heat exchanger outside is an electrical device. It is designed to withstand rain on it, not water being hosed in it. Be carefull. This idea is half-cocked and I would not recommend it.


How much antifreeze Peugeot 206?

Cooling system capacities varies with the type of engine fitted from 5.5Ltrs to 8.8Ltrs A 50 percent mixture of antifreeze and water is recommended.


Regarding water flow-should pool water go through the filter before it goes to the heat exchanger or should pool water go to the heat exchanger then through the filter before going back into the pool?

it goes ....pump, filter, heater, auto feeder, back to pool...this way the super chlorated water doesn't hurt the heat exchanger...


Can aluminum anodes and zinc anodes be mixed inside a water ballast tank?

Aluminum and zinc are close enough not to cause too much trouble. In highly electrolytic solutions there will be a voltage potential between them. Different metals should be avoided if at all possible when in contact with water or solutions.


What is test ring in Heat exchanger?

The test ring in a heat exchanger is the seal, that keeps the water from the heating container. The test ring should be changed every year.


How do you plumb a water line to a coal furnace to preheat the water prior to going into a electric hot water heater?

Is the furnace a hydroponic system? If it is you only need to get a heat exchanger (As you don't want the water to your heater flowing through the furnace) and plumb it as another zone in your house. If not you need to find a device for heating water that fits your furnace. and plumb the heat exchanger to that. I believe an heat exchanger is required by code in either case.


Can you use zinc anodes on your buried water tank?

Zinc anodes can help protect buried water tanks or any buried steel structure from external corrosion. The use of zinc anodes protect a structure from corrosion by a principle is known as cathodic protection. Corrosion is an electrochemical reaction where the reaction can be separated into two halves (two half-cell reactions): the anodic and the cathodic reactions. Deterioration (or corrosion) of the metal occurs at the anode. When zinc is in electrical contact with the steel and immersed in the same liquid, the zinc become the anode and the steel structure becomes the cathode. The zine is preferentially corroded, leaving the steel structure protected. To protect a steel tank, the anodes should be buried and evenly distributed around the tank. Deep anodes are sometimes needed to protect tanks with large flat bottoms. The holes around the anode are often filled with carbon to ensure good electrical contact with the ground water. Electric cables need to connect the zinc anodes to the steel. The anodes do not protect against internal corrosion of the tank.


What is range in cooling tower?

Range is the difference of cooling water inlet and cooling water outlet temp
