About Fluid Heat Transfer Systems
Fluid heat transfer systems circulate thermal fluid through process equipment to maintain an even, consistent temperature profile. They consist of tanks, pipes, pumps, and heating and/or cooling sources. Heating sources for fluid heat transfer systems use electricity, natural gas, propane, fuel oil, and solar power. Cooling sources use air and water. Important specifications include operating temperature, media flow rate, discharge pressure, heater capacity and expansion tank capacity. Media flow rate is the required flow capacity of the pump. Heater capacity, the ability of a device to add heat to the process fluid, is typically measured in kilowatts (kW) or British thermal units per hour (BTU/hr). Some fluid heat transfer systems use national pipe thread (NPT) connectors. Others use 150 lb. or 300 lb. flanges.
