Market Definition
An air-cooled heat exchanger is a type of heat transfer equipment that utilizes air as the cooling medium to dissipate heat from a fluid, typically in industrial applications. It comprises a series of tubes or fins through which the hot fluid flows, while ambient air is drawn across the external surfaces to absorb and carry away heat. These heat exchangers are widely used in various sectors, including oil and gas, power generation, petrochemicals, and HVAC systems, due to their efficiency, lower water consumption, and ease of maintenance. Their design varies to meet specific operational requirements, making them essential for maintaining optimal temperatures in processing and cooling applications.
