HEAT EXCHANGER COIL [3 records]

Record 1 2008-02-21

English

Subject field(s)
  • Aircraft Systems
CONT

The hot hydraulic fluid discharged from [the] case drain module is cooled in a heat exchanger by fuel drawn from the fuel system of [the] airplane and circulated through a heat exchanger coil in [the] module. The heat exchanger is connected to [the] case drain module by a line, and the cooled hydraulic fluid is returned to [the] reservoir via [a] return filter module through a heat exchanger discharge line.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Water Heaters and Softeners (Household)
CONT

A separate storage tank is required with an indirect water heater. Like the tankless coil, the indirect water heater circulates water through a heat exchanger in the boiler. But this heated water then flows to an insulated storage tank. Because the boiler does not need to operate frequently, this system is more efficient than the tank-less coil. In fact, when an indirect water heater is used with a highly efficient boiler, the combination may provide one of the least expensive methods of water heating.

Record 3 1995-06-30

English

Subject field(s)
  • Water Heaters and Softeners (Household)
  • Energy Transformation
  • Solar Energy
DEF

A device, which is designed to transfer heat easily ... from one fluid to another while preventing mixing of the two fluids, made of a simple coil tube immersed in the storage tank that rely on natural conversion to move the water inside the tank past the heat exchange surface.

CONT

The heat exchanger coil is generally fabricated from either heavy-walled cooper or stainless steel tubing. The coil is inserted into the solar storage tank during the initial phases of tank construction.

CONT

The coil in tank heat exchanger can be used to transfer heat either from collector to storage or from storage to end use. Finned coils provide a large surface area to increase effectiveness.

CONT

Dans les régions où le gel est à craindre, l'addition de glycol dans le circuit d'eau des insolateurs rend cette eau impropre aux usages domestiques et oblige à installer un échangeur thermique à serpentin.
