What is Marlotherm used for?

What is Marlotherm used for?

Marlotherm® SH is often used for indirect heating of reactors, polymerization vessels and distillation columns, process installations, dryers and also for heat exchangers in the process industry and systems for heat recovery. Marlotherm® SH can also be used for heating and cooling installations.

What is Marlotherm sh?

Marlotherm SH is a high-performance synthetic, organic heat-transfer medium for use in the liquid phase in closed, forced circulation heat-transfer systems. Marlotherm SH is also suitable for use in heating and cooling systems.

Is marlotherm flammable?

5.2. Explosion hazard : Not expected to be a fire/explosion hazard under normal conditions of use.

What is heat transfer fluid used for?

A liquid or a gas that transfers heat from one component to another is called heat transfer fluid (HTF). These fluids are used in processes where cooling or heating is required to obtain and maintain a particular temperature.

Who uses heat transfer fluids?

What are the 3 main types of heat transfer?

Heat can be transferred in three ways: by conduction, by convection, and by radiation.

  • Conduction is the transfer of energy from one molecule to another by direct contact.
  • Convection is the movement of heat by a fluid such as water or air.
  • Radiation is the transfer of heat by electromagnetic waves.

What liquid transfers heat the best?

Water
Water is one of the best choices for liquid cooling applications due to its high heat capacity and thermal conductivity. It is also compatible with copper, which is one of the best heat transfer materials to use for your fluid path. Water for liquid cooling comes from different sources.

What is a heat transfer fluid used for?

What are the 4 methods of heat transfer?

Various heat transfer mechanisms exist, including convection, conduction, thermal radiation, and evaporative cooling.

What metal disperses heat the best?

Metals That Conduct Heat the Best

  • Silver. Silver is one of the best metals for conducting heat because it works as a powerful reflector.
  • Copper. Copper is yet another good conductor of heat because it absorbs heat quickly and holds it for a long period of time.
  • Aluminum.
  • Brass.

What kind of heat transfer is marlotherm SH used for?

MARLOTHERM® SH. MARLOTHERM ® SH is a high-performance synthetic, organic heat-transfer medium for use in the liquid phase in closed, forced circulation heat-transfer systems and can be used over the whole working range without being kept under pressure. The boiling range of the product at atmospheric pressure is above the use limit.

What can you use marlotherm LH charge for?

MARLOTHERM ® SH is also suitable for use in heating and cooling systems. The technical characteristics of a MARLOTHERM ® SH charge can also be matched to the specific requirements of a system and optimized by mixing with MARLOTHERM ® LH.

How is the flash point of marlotherm SH?

Key facts about Marlotherm® SH. Marlotherm® SH has an operating temperature range of -5° to 350°C (23°F to 662°F) Marlotherm® SH HTF can be used without being pressurised. Marlotherm® SH is non-corrosive. It has a high flash point 200°C – one of the highest in its fluid class.

What should the back pressure be for marlotherm SH?

At operating temperatures above the boiling point of MARLOTHERM ® LH, it is necessary to first check whether the heat-transfer plant is approved for operation at the higher pressure. MARLOTHERM ® SH circuits are most efficiently operated using an inert gas back pressure of less than 100 mbar at the expansion vessel.
