How to choose air cooling and water cooling for heater chiller?

Feb. 20. 2023

There are two cooling modes of heater chiller: water cooling and air cooling. Both cooling modes are selected according to the environment of the heater chiller.

Air-cooled heater chiller uses air flow to generate thermal convection, thus reducing the ambient temperature in the box and achieving the purpose of cooling. Water-cooled heater chiller uses water or other coolant and refrigerant flow for cooling, and its cooling efficiency is generally higher than that of air cooling, with high stability.


Due to the high average temperature, the cooling speed is often too low when using air cooling, and the direct water cooling effect will be better, so the water cooling type is usually selected. When the ambient temperature is low, the water cooling effect is not good, easy to freeze, will affect the flow of water, and air cooling will be more appropriate.


Water cooling and heat dissipation need a site with water supply conditions, so there are certain requirements for the site. The air cooling mode requires a lower site, only a better ventilation environment and a lower site cost.
