Research: Oil Cooler (Copper Fin-and-Tube Coil Heat Exchanger)
Introduction An oil cooler is a device used to reduce the temperature of oil in hydraulic systems, lubricating systems, and gearboxes. One common type is the copper fin-and-tube coil heat exchanger, which is widely used because copper has high thermal conductivity and the fins provide a large heat-transfer surface. Construction and Components Shell and frame: The housing that holds the coil and connections; commonly made of steel or aluminum and designed to resist corrosion and pressure. Coil (copper tubes): Copper tubes through which oil flows (depending...
