On summer season, industrial plants gives problems related to hot ambient temperature.
Last week our service receive a call related to a big plant which don’t perform at usual temperature.
Customer tell us that chiller can’t perform correct temperature during middle day.
An interesting application of TREG HCE, is related to pharma processing thermoregulation.
We spoke about it in the past.
These requests coming sometimes from pharma research & development department and involving small thermal capacity units.
On our italian blog we often spoke about the flexibility of TCOIL heat exchangers.
I’m firmly believe in this product and every time we get feedback from market of this feature.
Few weeks ago our good customer operating in steel mill field, contact our technical department because a coil heat exchanger, internal to a waste water single effect evaporator is damaged; the coil has some pitting, but more important is totally scaled and externally clogged.
Air compression central station needs big amount of energy to run.
Compressor generates heat which usually can’t be recovered, but must be dissipated with heat exchanger, evaporative cooler or dry-cooler.
This thermal energy can’t be recovered because the temperature are too low.
There is a fluid inside compressors which operate at higher temperature, it is our target in energy recovery: lubricant oil.
Thermoregulating units TREG HCE are often employed on rubber industry, to heat up or thermoregulate production cycles.
In the last weeks of 2012 we close a supply for a new plant od high performance tires, where ours TREG HCE are dedicated to thermoregulation of cord production lines.
Checking the last article on TCOIL heat exchanger, i remember a nice video we have made months ago:
Another time TCOIL…
when we go in workshop to test a TCOIL heat exchanger, our mind goes to solutions and features which this kind of dimple jacket exchanger can achieve.
In this case we can cool down cutting oil for a CNC tool machinery.
The problem is related to the big amount of scale and chippings. A standard heat exchanger will be clogged in minutes.
You can immerge directly TCOIL in the oil tank. The spacing plate by plate is very large allowing ad easy cleaning, without special tools.
A chiller provide cold water for internal circulation inside the TCOIL.
Simple and efficient.
Picture is not the best, but application is very interesting to view on these pages…
Plate heat exchangers as evaporator and condenser on ORC (organic Rankine cycle) cogeneration pants.
Tempco has engineered a special thermoregulation unit with an extremely wide range of operating conditions, for implementation in an innovative cogeneration system, powered by a CSP, concentrated solar power, system: the DiGeSPo project was developed by FBK, Fondazione Bruno Kessler, embracing the research and building of a modular 1-2 kWe, 3-9 kWth micro cogeneration system, based on concentrated solar power using Stirling engines technology, external combustion engines using temperature’s gap in a thermal fluid to obtain mechanical drive of the piston. The solar powered micro cogeneration unit will be able to supply electricity and heat/cooling to single and multiple domestic dwellings, but also to commercial, industrial and public buildings.
