FLUE GAS COOLERS

Thermal Transfer gas coolers find the widest


application in the area of environmental control,
where hot dirty emissions from industrial
processes must be cooled for entry into pollution
control equipment. Most of our coolers employ
ambient air as the cooling medium, although
water-cooled units are furnished as well. A prime
FLUE GAS COOLERS

consideration in the design of all Thermal


Transfer coolers is the necessity for keeping the
heat transfer surfaces clean: arrangements are
largely selected to allow continuous in situ
cleaning utilizing soot blowers, shot or chain
cleaning systems. Combined cleaning methods
can be used for especially heavy carryover
situations.

A typical gas cooler is designed with the hot flue


gas flowing vertically down over the outside of
horizontal tubes, while cooling air passes inside
the tubes. A large volume of cooling air is usually
provided by multiple vane axial or panel fans
mounted on the side of the cooler. A complete
system is normally supplied including tube
bundles, outer shells, cooling fans, ducts, hoppers,
structural supports, walkways, etc. Other cooler
arrangements and orientations are also available
including designs with the not flue gas passing
inside the tubes.

Applications for gas coolers include the following:

• Electric arc furnaces


• Annealing furnaces
• Smelting furnaces
• Roasting furnaces
• Glass melting furnaces
• Cement kilns
• Steel furnaces
• Ferroalloy furnaces
