Turbine Oil Coolers

Coolers are utilized on lubricating oil reservoirs of large rotating equipment to control viscosity and reject heat. Lube oil cooler performance is impacted by a number of plant-specific variables, such as ambient temperature, plant utilities, equipment condition, and the like.An oil cooler is designed to remove excessive heat from the oil used to lubricate vehicles, machinery and mechanical equipment. For example, a hot engine transfers heat to the oil which then circulates through a heat-exchanger (also known as an oil cooler), using either air or water to cool the oil.
