Best Answer

Both the cooler and heat exchanger perform the same function as they remove heat from the engine. Two popular types of coolers are air-to-air inter-coolers that allow air to flow over fins and air-to-water models. The heat exchanger is often mounted in front of the radiator and uses airflow to reduce water temperature.

Heat exchanger for ammonia absorption refrigeration system?

there are two type of heat exchanger in absorption refrigeration, first is liquid heat exchanger and other is gas heat exchanger.both heat exchanger function is same, to transfer heat (hot medium to cold medium) without violate second newton law of thermodynamics. liquids heat exchanger is between boiler and absorber vessel mean while gas heat exchanger between evaporator and absorber.


What is the difference between a calorifer and a heat exchanger?

How do you know if a radiator has a auxiliary transmission oil cooler on it?

If there are lines coming from the transmission to the radiator, it has a cooler in the radiator. If there are lines from the transmission to an external heat exchanger, that would be an auxiliary cooler.


What is difference between condenser and heat exchanger?

A heat exchanger is a device that transfers heat from one fluid to the others. A condenser is simply a heat exchanger. It compresses refrigerants into a hot gas to then condense them into a liquid. Majorly condenser is used to cool the required vapor and heat exchanger is used to heat the required liquid.

What is the difference between double pipe heat exchanger and shell and tube heat exchanger?

double pipe heat exchanger is made if two concentric tubes one carrying cold flow and the other one carrying hot flow. but shell and tube hear exchangers are made of a shell like a vessel filled with many thin tubes to transfer heat between fluids. there are more data available at : http://scopewe.com/double-pipe-heat-exchanger-design-part-1/
